In this role, you will take large-scale manufacturing systems for new battery products and architectures from the early concept development stage through equipment launch, optimization, and handover to local operations teams. Battery development is at the heart of our company, and this is an exciting opportunity to work directly on the central challenges for the all-new Roadster product architecture while still in its early development stages,

At the heart of QuantumScape's appeal is its anode-free lithium-metal architecture. It replaces liquid electrolytes with a ceramic separator, boosting energy density to 500 Wh/kg, double that of current lithium-ion packs. Proof arrived in September's real-world motorcycle demo, where a QS cell operated flawlessly for hours without overheating or degradation. The true breakthrough, however, is manufacturing: This summer's "Cobra" upgrade ramps separator production 25-fold, positioning the company to shift from prototypes to gigafactory-scale output by early 2027.
