Structural Design Engineer

About Electrified Thermal Solutions Boilers, furnaces, and kilns are the engines of our industrial economy, providing heat to melt steel, form cement, and transform chemicals. But historically reaching this high-temperature heat required burning fossil fuels, making the industrial sector responsible for 25% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Electrified Thermal Solutions has a simple and massive goal: to electrify industry. To do this, we are building the Joule Hive™ thermal battery: an energy storage technology that converts and stores cheap, renewable electricity as high-temperature heat. Our vision is to mitigate gigatons of CO2 emissions per year by deploying the Joule Hive™ at every industrial furnace, turbine, boiler, and kiln.

Electrified Thermal Solutions is looking for a motivated Structural Design Engineer to join our team in Massachusetts. This is a full-time role to help design and support the development of next-generation energy storage and thermal systems.

As a Structural Design Engineer, you will join our engineering team and play a pivotal role in developing our flagship commercial Joule Hive Thermal Battery. This role offers an exciting opportunity to gain hands-on experience working on a cutting-edge project in renewable energy technology.
