Careers

We are always looking for exceptional talent

We are based in Atlanta, Georgia. Our office and lab are located in the vibrant Lee+White Complex on the Atlanta Beltline.

Join a multidisciplinary team of physicists, chemists, materials scientists, and engineers working on next-generation electrochemical energy systems.
You'll design, test, and qualify materials critical to JTEC's proprietary technology — working closely with industrial partners and external vendors to bring novel solutions from concept to production.

Conduct mechanical testing and characterization of materials for performance assessment.
Model and implement design of experiments for hydrogen storage technologies.
Design proprietary materials in collaboration with industrial partners.
Deliver technical presentations to communicate research findings and project progress.
Develop QA/QC protocols for externally sourced components to ensure consistency and reliability.
Collaborate with external vendors to procure high-quality custom components.

Master's degree in Materials Science & Engineering, Metallurgy, or a closely related field.
Knowledge of Mechanical Properties of Materials, Electron Microscopy, Thermodynamics, Microstructure & Properties, Ferrous Alloys, and Strengthening Mechanisms.
Proficiency in mechanical testing, metallography, technical drawings, analysis, writing, and presentations.

We're looking for a creative, hands-on Controls Engineer excited about developing a first-of-its-kind zero-carbon energy device. You'll work across a multidisciplinary team — Materials Engineers, Chemists, Chemical Engineers, Mechanical Engineers, Electrical and Aerospace Engineers — to develop robust, reliable control systems for the JTEC engine.
This role spans high-level design through hands-on fabrication, assembly, testing, and reporting. JTEC Energy is well-funded; the right engineer will have a genuine opportunity to bring a world-changing invention to life. Bonus potential based on team objectives.

Design, program, and supervise all aspects of electrical control systems, including PLC-based hardware and software installation.
Fabricate and implement software, electrical, and mechanical control systems — balancing independent design work with collaborative systems-level development.
Prototype control system designs; test, fine-tune, and build from subsystems to full-scale working prototypes.
Manage the transition from in-house prototyping to production: develop functional requirements, acceptance criteria, and design drawings; identify and vet vendors.
Maintain detailed logs, reports, and an aggressive project schedule.
Estimate costs and source materials to identify savings opportunities.

BS in Electrical Engineering, Electrical Controls Engineering, Mechatronics, or similar.
5+ years of hands-on experience designing and building industrial process control systems; experience in gas/fuel applications strongly preferred.
Strong engineering fundamentals across electrical and mechanical domains.
Fluency in relevant CAD systems — AutoCAD and SolidWorks preferred.
Demonstrated experience with PLC-based control systems (Allen-Bradley preferred).
Experience designing to NFPA 70 and Safety Integrity Level (SIL) standards; comfortable performing HAZOP, FMEA, and Cause & Effect analyses.
Strong written and verbal communication; ability to work independently in a fast-paced startup environment.
