Intern – Electrochemistry & Materials Science

Bengaluru Intern

About Us:

Log9 Materials is on a mission to make global energy 100% clean from cradle to gate. With its core competence in Graphene nanotechnology, Log9 strives to develop advanced energy storage technologies from electrode materials, cell level to pack level.

The Rapid Charging Battery technology developed by Log9 solves the challenges in adoption for the 2W and 3W electric vehicle platforms while the Aluminum Fuel Cell technology is targeted towards the electrification of long haul, heavier vehicles. Electrification of vehicles specially for commercial use ranging from 2W, 3W to LCVs to HCVs will not only have a significant positive impact on the environment, but it will lead to huge cost savings as well. However, different vehicle platforms have unique requirements and hence there cannot be a one-type fit all battery technology. 

In this endeavor, we are building a team of Engineers and Technocrats to make India energy Independent.

Our core values are Passionate & Entrepreneurial, Fearless & Humble, Ethical & Environment-obsessed, Agile & Detail-seeking.

 We are looking for people who identify with the same set of values.

 

Unique chance to work at the cutting edge of technology in India, building solutions to solve global energy storage challenges.
