Axyde Analytics is deploying the first national battery requalification and compliance lab aligned with DOE and DOD intake regulations. As Battery QA Lead, you will operationalize the VinBatt Tier 1 QA node within our traceability enforcement platform. You will own execution of diagnostics, compliance-based sorting, and certificate-of-acceptance (CoA) issuance under VIREN, our governance engine.
You will act as the critical bridge between federal-grade traceability rules and real-world QA execution—ensuring every blocked or flagged battery is processed, justified, or escalated with full integrity.
