About the Role
Moment Energy is seeking a high-impact Battery Evaluation Lead to spearhead our new Austin-based R&D hub. This role is ideal for a technical leader who can drive "blue sky" R&D while building the operational foundation for a world-class rapid prototyping and battery evaluation facility. You will lead a team of engineers and technicians focused on battery characterization, destructive testing, and the development of our Austin “Bunker” thermal runaway test site. Your work will help shape Moment Energy’s future battery-agnostic platforms and ensure we continue advancing the circular battery economy.
Responsibilities
- Lead the physical evaluation, teardown, and cycling of various automotive EV pack types to create a comprehensive battery physical market landscape.

- Act as the primary technical liaison with automotive OEMs to secure hardware, documentation, and early access to next-gen battery tech.
- Support the build-out of a 10,000 sqft facility featuring cyclers, teardown areas, and an off-site fire testing area for thermal runaway R&D.
- Manage our dedicated "Bunker" facility outside of Austin to lead Moment Energy’s fire safety R&D and reduce reliance on third-party testing.
- Conduct module and pack-level fire tests to establish safety baselines for new battery types.
- Manage the specialized preparation required for thermal runaway and abuse testing.
- Act as the primary site for Moment Energy’s high-stakes safety vetting, reducing the cost and scheduling delays associated with third-party testing.
- Build out and direct a high-speed team (engineers and technicians) to determine which batteries are best for future BESS product designs.
- Provide technical guidance for the Austin team, fostering a culture of rapid iteration and excellence.
