Battery Research Engineer - 15720

Make a change
In a world suffering from pollution and in a highly competitive industry, National Electric Vehicle Sweden AB (NEVS) was founded with the determination to make a change.

To improve by challenging the conservative and complex.

We believe, or in fact we know, that most people both want to do well and to find joy in what they are doing. So unlike most, we combine the two.

Now we are joining hands with strong technical, industrial and financial partners to become a leading manufacturer of electric vehicles aiming for our vision - to shape mobility for a more sustainable future.

We are building up a strong team in Sweden and China for this inspiring journey. If you feel that you want to be a part of this challenge and make a change - you should join us!

 

Our Engineering department is creating a strong foundation of skills and we are therefore looking for a Battery Research Engineer.

If you are a dynamic, always questioning person, and you always wanted to push the world forward on a faster pace… you think that physics and technology boundaries are there to be challenged and trespass, but you always thought you needed the opportunity and team to make that change?

We BELIEVE than we can do things different, better. THIS IS OUR WHY! If this is also your stance, then this is your chance. You definitely belong here with us!
