R&D Engineer

Kashiwa City, Chiba

LiSTie uses an innovative lithium separation technology called "LiSMIC (Lithium Ion Conduction Separation Method)"

We are working on evaluating and developing the performance of ionic conductors as a core technology supporting this.

[Attractiveness of this job]

A World-First, One-Pass Lithium Extraction Technology — Truly One of a Kind!

  • Our LiSMIC (Li Separation Method by Ionic Conductor) technology contributes to building a future where the next generation can live safely and securely, free from energy shortages.
  • Once implemented in society, this technology will enable the recovery of high-purity lithium from seawater, salt lakes, and lithium-containing waste.
  • Looking ahead, we aim to expand our business toward lithium extraction from seawater — a resource containing virtually unlimited lithium.

[Job Description]

  • Research and Development Related to LiSMIC (Lithium Extraction System)
  • Planning and execution of experiments primarily focused on membrane development and pretreatment process optimization (solution preparation).
  • Development of new separation membranes (ion conductors) for lithium separation using ion-conductive methods (LiSMIC).
  • Optimization of solution composition, clarification of elution requirements, and pH adjustment.
  • Preparation of instruction manuals, analytical tasks, and data interpretation.
  • Feedback on experimental results, hypothesis formulation, and parameter tuning.
  • Examination of requirements for equipment development.

※ You will be involved in the development process while maintaining a comprehensive understanding of the entire system, contributing to the establishment of a world-first technology.

[Application Requirements]

MUST

  • A background in chemistry is required

[Desired personality]

  • Those who are willing to take on new challenges
  • People who have the speed and multitasking skills of a startup
