Senior Product Engineer Energy Storage

The Role

What is the role?

You will lead multiple research projects and activities in energy storage related research and development programmes, as well as developing broader topical, project, and market expertise related to various forms of energy storage. More specifically, in this role you will:

  • Be a technology domain and/or project lead with natural teams of 3-8 members across Shell to develop large scale energy storage for use in multiple sectors.

  • Identify promising storage technologies and develop these through the Shell Deliver Technology Process from D0 through D4; discovering/evaluating, developing/piloting, demonstrating and deploying towards commercial scale.

  • Establish working knowledge of techno-economic analysis to place technology developments in appropriate context

  • Develop and expand laboratory capabilities and experimental procedures; identify/develop/implement tools for data acquisition and analysis

  • Maintain strong focus on product and process safety towards development and deployment of new storage technologies.

  • Develop understanding of the broader energy system, the energy transition, & the role of emerging technologies; evaluate external technologies for technical and economic viability and potential, and place technology developments into appropriate contexts

  • Be responsible for technical reports and patent filings and contribute to results published in peer-reviewed publications, internal technical reports, conference presentations, and patent filings

  • · Represent Shell in relevant academic and industry platforms and present at conferences.

  • Be a trusted advisor for a.o. Shell sector teams, Shell Ventures and Shell Trading to help screen investment opportunities and recommend how they may or may not fit within the energy storage technology roadmap.

  • You are keen to keep learning and persistent towards your end goal

Diversity

Energy transition is one of the most complex challenges to ever face humankind. Research has shown that the differences in who we are, what we have experienced, and how we think are crucial to deliver top performance. Diversity in all aspects is core to our ways of working including our hiring practices and we are committed to build a team and environment that accelerates the path towards a net zero society.
