Together, these innovations are making a massive global improvement and driving real-world impact across energy, mobility, construction, and defense.

At Lyten, we believe the most meaningful careers begin with purpose — and with people who want to make a difference. We’re not just developing advanced supermaterials — we’re about to change the world as we know it, reshaping how energy is stored, how products are built, and how progress is made.

We’re entering an exciting growth phase, scaling production across the U.S. and Europe and expanding our team of engineers, scientists, and innovators.

Apply now to join our team and be part of something bigger than yourself — where collaboration, creativity, and purpose come together to build the technologies that will define the next century.

The Senior Battery Technician will serve as a key contributor to the day-to-day operation of the battery test laboratory. This role is responsible for coordinating battery test execution, conducting measurements, managing tester utilization, maintaining accurate tracking of cells and test resources, and ensuring efficient movement of cells through the testing workflow.

The ideal candidate is highly organized, works independently, and excels at managing laboratory operations in a fast-paced production environment. While engineers will provide technical direction, test plans, and failure assessments, this role will own operational execution and provide clear visibility into test status, channel availability, and laboratory readiness.

* Please note:

** This is a hands-on, on-site role.  
** Key Responsibilities
*** Execute battery testing activities according to established SOPs, work instructions, and engineering requests.
* Perform routine cell characterization and measurements using Hioki instrumentation, pressure sensors, and thickness gauges.
* Load, unload, fixture, and inspect cells before, during, and after testing.
* Manage tester utilization and maintain visibility into channel availability, active tests, and upcoming capacity.
* Coordinate cell flow throughout the testing lifecycle, including receiving, testing, storage, and disposition.
* Maintain accurate records of cell inventory, test status, tester assignments, and laboratory assets.
* Monitor test execution and promptly communicate equipment issues, abnormal test behavior, or operational constraints.
* Ensure laboratory organization, cleanliness, and compliance with safety procedures.
* Collect and document measurements, observations, and test-related information as directed by the engineering team.
* Support engineers with sample preparation, test setup, validation activities, and DOE execution.
* Identify opportunities to improve laboratory workflows, tracking methods, and operational efficiency.
* Assist in maintaining test fixtures, laboratory equipment, and consumable inventories.
* Provide timely updates regarding tester capacity, channel utilization, and test completion status.  
** Required Qualifications
*** 5+ years of experience as a laboratory technician, battery technician, or related technical role.
* Experience operating battery test equipment, environmental chambers, or similar laboratory systems.
* Experience handling lithium-ion cells and laboratory test fixtures.
* Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple concurrent activities.
