Staff Facility Engineer
About UsWe are Sila, a next-generation battery materials company.
Our mission is to power the world s transition to clean energy.
To create this future, our team is building a better lithium-ion battery from the inside out today.
We engineer and manufacture ground-breaking battery materials that significantly increase the energy density of batteries, while reducing their size and weight.
The result? Smaller more powerful batteries that can unlock innovation in consumer devices and accelerate the mass adoption of electric cars to eliminate our dependence on fossil fuels.
We're tackling one of the biggest challenges of our time every day, and together we're redefining what's possible.
