Description

Lyten is leading an industrial revolution through Lyten 3D Graphene™, a breakthrough supermaterial unlocking a new generation of products — from lithium–sulfur batteries and energy storage systems to concrete admixtures, lightweight composites, and next-generation sensors that are revolutionizing industries. 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. Job Scope Lyten is seeking a Production Engineer with a specialization in automated industrial (battery) productions. As a Production Engineer (Pilot Production) you will stabilize, scale, and continuously improve pilot‑line processes that span electrode manufacturing, cell assembly, and formation & aging. Your mission is to translate cell designs and lab recipes into robust, traceable processes ready for industrialization at our gigafactories. You will work closely together with production, process, quality, and automation engineers to make sure the production process is achieving the required stability and is ready for transfer to gigafactory scale. You will ensure process and equipment meet availability and reliability and resolve production issues with a sense of urgency. Key Responsibilities Overall areas of responsibilities and activities. Key responsibilities include (but are not limited to) Own pilot-line selected production steps across Wet- and Dry Electrode, Assembly and Formation & Aging processes. Defining, monitoring and improving Operation Parameter Ranges and control windows fit for the Labs pilot productions. Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define production system requirements, select suitable hardware and software, and create robust solutions for production lines. Follow data-driven production control methods, implementing SPC on CtQs and MSAs to ensure capability prior to scale-up. Together with IT and Automation teams implement the necessary dashboards for OEE, FPY, scrap, downtime with Pareto’s and trends to facilitate progress tracking and root cause analysis. Prepare and maintain Process Flow, PFMEA and work instructions as preparation for pilot productions. Partner with Safety & Environment to validate process changes against standard requirements. Own root-cause analysis on equipment and process performance improvements during A- and B-sample productions, following structured RCA methods. Work hands-on with Cell Design, Materials, Maintenance & Automation, Supply chain and Operations on fast learning cycles and problem solving to increase production process maturity. Review Engineering Design Documentation (Specifications, Design manufacturability). Support and collaborate with project teams to select the most proficient equipment suppliers from an automation perspective. Responsible for acceptance of the Site Acceptance Tests of equipment upon commissioning completion. Organize and take part in internal training and workshops. Cost estimations for projects and change requests. Provide input for quoting, planning works, and change orders. Accountability/Authorization Budget responsibility: N Direct reports: N Work Environment responsibility: N Requirements Educational background and previous experience required for the role Bachelor's or Master's Degree in Chemical, Mechanical, Manufacturing or Automation Engineering or equivalent fields. 3-8 years of experience in high precision manufacturing or pilot/scale-up environments (battery, pharma, semiconductor, film/web coating or similar). Lean Six Sigma certification Green- or blackbelt is a plus. Qualifications and Experience Hands-on experience as an engineer with roll-to-roll processes, discrete assembly, coating/drying, laser cutting/welding, in-line test methods (DCIR, HiPot, leakage test). Proficient in DOE/SPC/MSA, PFMEA, structured RCA methods. Experience with Design For Manufacturing, applied in industrial scale high-volume production processes. Familiar with Dry-room operations, chemical handling and ATEX/CE compliance. Experience with MES/SCADA/PLC datasets and basic scripting/querying for data analysis is a plus. Experience with mechanical design using 3D CAD is a plus. Ability to travel to different Lyten’s factories and to supplier visits. Specific skills & Knowledge Knowledge of AIAG/VDA and ISO9xxx standards for mass production environments (APQP/PPAP). Knowledge of European Directives and relevant ISO, IEC, and safety standards. Good understanding of project and supplier management, and structured problem solving skills.
