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 emerging engineers from a range of disciplines who are excited about developing technology with real-world impact. By joining our Graduate and Intern Engineer talent pool, you’ll be considered for future opportunities to learn alongside experienced engineers and contribute to real-world R&D, manufacturing and commercial engineering projects. 

If you’re curious, hands-on and excited by the opportunity to help bring SunDrive’s novel technology from R&D into commercial deployment, we’d love to hear from you.
