CAMINUS (formerly EnPower, Inc.) is an Indianapolis-based lithium-ion cell manufacturer building end-to-end, domestic, NDAA-compliant battery capacity for defense, autonomy, and critical infrastructure markets. From our 90,000+ sqft facility, we operate two production-scale electrode coating lines paired with expanding automated cell assembly lines, making us one of the few U.S. companies with true powder-to-cell capability under one roof. Our technology platform, built on proprietary multilayer electrode architectures and Integrated Ceramic Separator (ICS) technology and protected by more than 40 granted and pending patents worldwide, enables cells that are simultaneously high-energy, high-power, fast-charging, and safe. We are passionate about what we do, and we are looking for high-current, high-voltage individuals to join our team.

The Formation and Testing Technician runs the formation, aging and electrical testing of lithium-ion cells at CAMINUS, making sure every cell meets quality and safety specifications before it moves to module assembly or shipment.
