About Us
We're a deep-tech AI startup on a mission to revolutionize battery recycling —reducing waste, recovering energy, and redefining sustainability in the process. We already have a co-founder leading AI/software efforts, and now we're looking for the right partner to own our hardware vision . If you're seeking a traditional 9-to-5 job, this might not be for you. But if you're willing to embrace risk, share in the rewards , and help steer an industry-changing startup, read on.
Why We Exist
AI-Powered Autonomous Sorting : Automating lithium-ion battery sorting with advanced machine learning. Wireless Discharging Technology : Innovating safer, faster ways to discharge batteries. Energy Recovery Systems : Capturing up to 90% of stored energy for redistribution. AI Insights : Real-time analytics to drive efficiency and sustainability. We're at an early stage , currently a small team with big ambitions. We can't offer a salary at this point. What we can offer is significant equity —and the chance to keep your day job until we secure funding or revenue to stabilize. If you believe in what we're doing and want to be part of something that could truly make a difference, we want to hear from you.
