About LeydenJarAt 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:<ul><li>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.</li><li>Our initial focus is on consumer electronics, with automotive applications already in development.</li><li>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.</li></ul>To meet global demand, we’re scaling up:<ul><li>PlantOne in Eindhoven opens in 2026, producing anode rolls and validating our roll-to-roll production tools.</li><li>PlantTwo, our large-scale production facility, will follow, establishing LeydenJar as a key player in the global battery market.</li></ul>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.<img src="https://recruitee-main.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/uploads/3r6nrk3p82/2025-07-21_LeydenJar0062.jpg">LeydenJar Technologies is scaling rapidly and while doing so we are looking for an System Software Architect to join us in our mission to boost battery technology.Some of your main responsibilities include: <ul><li>Work closely with the mechanical and the process engineers.</li><li>Work closely with the other system architect and system engineers.</li><li>Roll out the modular and future proof software architecture for the control of the production machine.</li><li>Work in close collaboration with external suppliers</li><li>Review work done by the software team from the supplier</li><li>Put together the requirements with help of the equipment, process and production engineers.</li><li>Maintain the Software Requirements Specifications (in Polarion)</li><li>Maintain Project Documentation</li><li>Maintain the knowledge inside Leydenjar to be able to support users after commissioning (training, troubleshooting, additional component development and fixes)</li><li>Collaborate with data scientists and IT department</li></ul>About you: <ul><li>You have min 5+ years of working experience in software development in a machine development environment in server-client architecture</li><li>You have experience in Data interface technologies: OPC UA , Profinet, RS485</li><li>You posses test driven development mindset</li><li>You have knowledge of Model Driven Development</li><li>Experience working with change management is a plus</li><li>Experience in commissioning processes e.g. FAT / SAT is an advantage</li><li>Familiarity with Supermodels, PLC programming and Siemens Edge devices is a plus</li><li>Familiarity with safety standards and regulations (ISO IEC) is an advantage</li><li>You have flexible/adaptive mindset (able to adapt to changing circumstances)</li><li>You are pragmatic (able to set priorities based on limited information and act accordingly)</li><li>You are action oriented and result driven teamplayer</li><li>You have deep understanding of Software Development</li><li>You have excellent communication skillsWhy LeydenJar?<ul><li> Unleash Your Potential: Step into a workplace where growth and ownership go hand in hand.

LeydenJar Technologies boosts the energy density of li-ion batteries by replacing the traditional graphite anode with a nanoporous, pure silicon anode. This yields cheaper (-20% costs), greener (-85% CO2 footprint) and higher energy density batteries (+70% as compared to state-of-the-art, 1350Wh/L).
