Application Technologist

Are you passionate about making a difference in the fight against climate change? Then Air Joule is the place for you! We are a joint venture between GE Vernova and Montana Technologies, and a leader in the global sustainability transition. Our revolutionary atmosphere water harvesting technology enables transformative HVAC products that help our customers save money on their energy bills while reducing their environmental impact.

The same core technology also enables atmospheric water harvesting products that create clean, abundant, and decentralized water for industrial, commercial, and humanitarian purposes.

The Applications Technologist will join the Applications Engineering team focusing on the optimization of device performance and understanding its performance landscape. Air Joule technology dehumidifies air with record-breaking energy efficiency and then converts it into pure water. The role of the Engineering Technologist is essential for success of the technology, because it connects basic R&D to real-world performance. This role will involve running the assembled prototypes, controlling the different subcomponent technologies within Air Joule, and collecting performance data over a wide range of conditions.

This assignment will be located at Air Joule's headquarters in Newark, DE.
