Power and data have been moved the same way for over 100 years.
This is a new day. At CelLink Corporation, our Team Members are designing, developing, and manufacturing flexible circuits that fundamentally change the transmission of power and data. Lower weight, higher performance, smaller mass, and lower overall system price all drive toward CelLink’s goal of a cleaner environment and more affordable technology.
At CelLink, we are electrified at the prospect of contributing to a technology that is and will be changing mobility for a cleaner and brighter future. We work with very dedicated people on challenging projects that change everyone’s future for the better. If you are eager to create, to learn, and to apply your knowledge, we are looking forward to you joining us on our electrifying mission.
Process Engineer-Technology Development
As a Process Engineer on our Technology Development team, you’ll be at the forefront of building one-of-a-kind manufacturing solutions that don’t just improve processes-they redefine them. Your role will be to design, automate, and implement groundbreaking systems that expand CelLink’s technical capabilities, accelerate New Product Introduction (NPI), and establish the foundation for scalable, high-performance, automated manufacturing. This is more than engineering-it’s creating the blueprint for the future of power and data transmission.
These openings are for Level 4/5 Engineers
