4 weeks ago

Somerville MA United States Excelsea GmbH Full time

Sublime Systems is a technology company commercializing affordable, ultra-low-carbon cement. Sublime's breakthrough replaces the industry's legacy fossil fuel-fired kilns with an electrochemical system that operates at ambient temperature, eliminating the use of fossil fuel and the need for limestone, resulting in low-carbon, low-embodied energy cement. This technology has the potential to drive gigaton-scale CO 2 reductions in an industry responsible for 8 percent of global emissions. Sublime is backed by mission-aligned investors, including The Engine, Prime Impact Fund, Energy Impact Partners, and Lowercarbon Capital. We are building a diverse and collaborative team of folks who are "amped about cement" (pun intended), who share our values (excellence, creativity, and teamwork), and our motivation to create a better world.

  • Perform necessary pre-operation and end of shift activities to ensure proper equipment start-up and operation on multiple pieces of equipment. This will include reactors, pumps, agitators, filter presses, etc.
  • Participate in the sample prep, analysis and interpretation of lab and pilot scale data.
  • Participate in downstream product processing
  • Document process operations
  • Perform hands-on troubleshooting and repair of pilot equipment
  • Perform routine investigative tear downs of process equipment to capture physical materials characteristics
  • Facilitate installation and assembly of new equipment.

  • A strong sense for chemical safety, organization, and attention to detail.
  • Previous internship and/or lab experience
  • Ability to make keen observations on process anomalies, recommend process improvements, and articulate findings.
  • Knowledge of and passion for applying engineering fundamentals to chemical plant design and operation
  • Able to lift objects up to 50 lb, climb ladders, and work on step stools
