Company Overview
Are you excited by the potential of large-scale carbon removal?
If so, Captura Corp. is seeking an ED Assembly and Operator Technician to join us.
Captura is an early-stage technology start-up with the mission to develop globally scalable carbon removal to support a sustainable future for the world’s climate. Captura’s unique technology was developed and proven in Caltech’s laboratories and uses established electrochemical concepts to enable gigaton-scalable solutions for removing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere via direct ocean capture. We capture carbon dioxide using only renewable electricity and seawater, creating no byproducts. CO2-depleted seawater is returned to the ocean to absorb CO2 that comes from the atmosphere.
Key Responsibilities:
- Set up, monitor, adjust, and operate lab-scale electrodialysis systems with senior electrodialysis engineers.
- Assist mechanical and build engineers in system construction.
- Oversee and maintain the daily operation of Captura’s newly expanded workshop space.
- Troubleshoot technical issues, identify root causes, and resolve them when they arise.
- Adhere to all applicable regulations, policies, and procedures for health, safety, and environmental compliance.
- Cooperate with the Captura’s R&D team and contribute for the optimization and scale up of electrodialysis systems.
Role Requirements:
- Experience with electrodialysis or electrochemistry and working in a wet lab.
- Ability to work independently in small teams.
- Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a team environment.
- Strong communication skills, both written and verbal.
Nice to have:
- Relevant hands-on experience in the build and operation of liquid materials processing engineering systems (pool, chemical, petrochemical, water, mining, oil&gas plants, etc.)
- Experience with construction and assembly of PVC-pipe based water/plumbing systems
