About SunDrive: SunDrive’s proprietary technology enables the use of copper instead of silver for solar cell electrodes. This technological breakthrough has significant benefits, including greater efficiency, lower cost, a scalable supply chain and more environmentally friendly production. Founded in 2015, SunDrive is backed by some of Australia’s top venture capital firms (Blackbird, Main Sequence, Virescent and Grok), tech founders and the Australian Government (CEFC and ARENA). SunDrive has quickly grown from a UNSW PhD project in a garage to producing the world’s most efficient commercial-sized solar cells. We’re always keen to connect with talent from a range of disciplines who are excited about developing technology with real-world impact. By joining our talent pool, you’ll be considered for future opportunities to learn alongside experienced team and contribute to real-world R&D, manufacturing and commercial engineering projects.

About this listing
Published on Lever under the board identifier Sundrivesolar, which is the name the employer’s own job board carries. RoleSprint has not verified the company’s registered or trading name, so it is shown exactly as published rather than tidied up.
RoleSprint is not the employer and not a recruiter. Applications are made on the employer’s own site and never reach us; what RoleSprint does is help you decide whether a role is worth your time and prepare for it if it is.
Published 16 September 2026, last checked 3 days ago. A posting stops being advertised here 90 days after the employer published it, and one the employer takes down is marked closed rather than quietly removed.
