About Dioxycle

Dioxycle is developing next-generation electrified chemical manufacturing technologies that produce cheaper, cleaner and sovereign critical chemicals, key to mining, energy infrastructure, pharmaceuticals, agriculture and consumer goods. Our technology uses electricity and widely available feedstocks (CO, CO2 emissions, salt streams) rather than fossil fuels, de-linking the production of critical chemicals from fossil-linked supply chains exposed to chokepoints, export bans, and price volatility.

We focus on chemicals where our direct electrified pathway simplifies complex multi-step fossil-fuel-based processes into fewer simpler steps; delivering a process that is both cleaner and cheaper. Having validated the superiority of our technology at our industrial module scale, we are now preparing for commercial deployment.

We are supported by world-class funders including Lowercarbon Capital, Breakthrough Energy Ventures and Gigascale Capital and have raised $40M to date. We operate from two centers in Paris and California (so whether you are passionate about outdoors or good food/art scenes, we have a location for you to join!)

Your Mission

Dioxycle is seeking a hands-on Electromechanical Technician to join our systems team. You'll be working directly on the systems that operate our electrolyzer stacks in a hands-on role assembling, maintaining and troubleshooting automated test benches. You will apply mechanical, electrical, and software skills in your every day work, contributing to continued improvement and operation of our extensive electrolyzer test systems.

Your key responsibilities will center around:

- Maintain and trouble-shoot PLC-based control systems (Beckhoff) on our lab and field electrolyzer units.

- Wire, install, and troubleshoot sensors, actuators, electrical panels, valves and pumps

- Troubleshooting and maintenance of test benches, including instrumentation and controls

- Testing and validation of the sub-systems through the implementation of test protocols

- Implementation and tuning of PID controllers

- Writing of documentation

- Benchmark suppliers and contact them

- Maintain inventory and improve the inventory system

Diploma (e.g. DUT) or degree in electrical engineering, automation, or a related field - or equivalent hands-on experience

1+ years of experience (internships/apprenticeships and personal projects all count, however, candidates with more experience are warmly encouraged to apply)

Some exposure to PLC programming (Beckhoff, Rockwell, Siemens, or Schneider - any is fine; you'll learn Beckhoff on the job)

Familiarity with electrical panel design and reading wiring diagrams

Hands-on experience with sensors, actuators, and basic electronics troubleshooting

Comfortable using an oscilloscope and basic electronics measurement tools

Exemplary work ethic and self-driven attitude: you get things done fast and to a high standard and you don't drop the ball
