At HyAxiom, we develop, manufacture and service hydrogen fuel cells along with other innovative hydrogen energy solutions. We are a leading provider of stationary fuel cell solutions in some of the world’s largest and fastest-growing markets for utility, industrial and commercial customers. Being the hydrogen business pillar of Doosan Group, we share in their rich history as being a part of the oldest South Korean conglomerate operating in the global energy, manufacturing, and construction sector.

Our products serve those who seek cleaner and more sustainable energy sources to lower their carbon footprint.

Our mission is to accelerate a carbon-free energy future by delivering a full spectrum of reliable and cost-effective hydrogen solutions. We seek to be at the forefront of the hydrogen revolution through the development of next-generation technologies for clean hydrogen production and clean fuel cell solutions for land and maritime transportation. Our current product line-up ranges from electrolyzers for scalable green hydrogen production and fuel cells for stationary and mobility applications.

Our main manufacturing headquarters is in South Windsor, CT. We are seeking local candidates within a commutable proximity.

Responsible for the selection and maintenance of mechanical components utilized within a fuel cell powerplant or PEM water electrolyzer. The MBOP group (Mechanical Balance of Plant) is responsible for selecting components that meet the requirements generated by the Systems group. Typical tasks include corresponding with and effectively collaborating with suppliers to enable selection of optimal hardware, generating component specifications from component level requirement documents, working with suppliers to develop custom components when necessary, generating component- level models, running performance tests (e.g. pump head vs.

flow) and/or accelerated durability tests, and conducting component-level testing of new or refurbished parts prior to installation into the product. Critical focus on troubleshooting component noncompliance issues discovered in the factory or in the field. Ongoing focus on employee and career development of self and others within the discipline. This role requires a solid understanding of the fundamentals of the discipline and the role, while continuing to develop specialized discipline knowledge.

Works with low-to-moderate guidance on projects and more complex work assignments.

• Focus technical skills of MBOP group on hardware selection, custom component determination, component modeling, building component test rigs and running performance tests, and troubleshooting.
• Direct group’s focus with variance resolution on root cause analysis and ensure lessons learned are captured in process revision and standard work.
• Proactively identify patterns in conflicting information and constructively resolve the conflict(s) in a manner that minimizes impact and rework.
• With low-to-moderate guidance and direction, generate component specifications from component level requirement documents, and review with author(s) to modify as needed prior to formal pursuit.
• Share component specifications with potential suppliers to identify suitable Commercial Off the Shelf (COTS) component availability or develop suitable components when COTS parts are not suitable.
• Use component specifications to enable suppliers to develop skid-mounted or container-based assemblies of many components to fulfil entire subsystem requirements, ensuring a complete integration of mechanical and electrical…
