About LeydenJar

At LeydenJar Technologies, we’re on a mission to redefine the future of energy storage. Our goal is to become the world’s innovation leader in advanced battery anodes, empowering the next generation of batteries that drive progress.

Why does this matter? Because the world needs higher energy density batteries not just for better consumer electronics, but for electric vehicles, e-flight, and beyond. While the battery industry typically advances by only 3% per year, our breakthrough pure silicon anode technology delivers an improvement of up to 70%ma true game changer. Often called the “holy grail” of the battery industry, our technology unlocks new possibilities for electrification, sustainability, and resilience in global supply chains.

What we do:

• We produce pure silicon anode rolls that fit seamlessly into existing battery cell manufacturing lines, enabling customers to make a quantum leap in performance or create entirely new product categories.
• Our initial focus is on consumer electronics, with automotive applications already in development.
• By leveraging semiconductor thin-film technology (plasma deposition) and scaling it to battery anodes, we’ve overcome the long-standing challenges of silicon in batteries, delivering durability and efficiency at scale.

To meet global demand, we’re scaling up:

• PlantOne in Eindhoven opens in 2026, producing anode rolls and validating our roll-to-roll production tools.
• PlantTwo, our large-scale production facility, will follow, establishing LeydenJar as a key player in the global battery market.

This is an enormous opportunity and an ambitious journey. It requires bold, creative, and diverse minds who share our passion for innovation and sustainability. At LeydenJar, we value different perspectives, inclusive collaboration, and gender equality because we know that diversity fuels breakthrough ideas.

We are looking for a System Engineer PECVD that will be responsible for development, testing and validation of the PECVD subsystem. They work closely with the plasma scientist, process development and equipment development team to meet product targets, and ensure the seamless operation of critical R&D infrastructure. This role requires a strong understanding of hardware, software and processes related to PECVD.

Some of the key responsibilities are:

• Development of a novel PECVD source in collaboration with the plasma scientist and process team, bringing hands-on PECVD engineering expertise into the development team;
• Leading testing and validation of PECVD subsystem, providing feedback to the equipment development team
• System and concept design of PECVD related sub-system of the equipment;
• Working closely with the Plasma Scientist, translating stakeholder's wishes into design specifications and requirements, helping him managing sub-system interactions
• Guiding PECVD related work of external engineering companies
• Keeping all necessary documentation in place and up to date;
• Supporting improvements and upgrades of existing equipment from the PECVD point of view.
• Ensuring high quality of engineering and design work fit for PECVD process;
• Reviewing and challenging system design in relation to PECVD competence.
• Spreading your expertise amongst your colleagues.
• Lead PECVD productivity improvement efforts.
