Attention ChBE sophomores, juniors and seniors:

PAGE Technologies, a startup located on campus, is looking for an intern Electrochemical Sensor Lab Technician.

PAGE Technologies works to develop revolutionary sensor systems that simplify environmental and agriculture decision making. The company is seeking a detail-oriented and motivated Electrochemical Sensor Lab Technician to join its team. This role offers an excellent opportunity to gain hands-on experience in quality assurance and quality control processes for cutting-edge printed electrochemical sensors.

Application Deadline: Friday, Sept. 5, 2025
For a full description of the position, visit LinkedIn. 

Solid Power is seeking a Materials Engineering Intern to join our talented team of engineers and scientists working to revolutionize the battery industry through the development of next generation, all solid‐state rechargeable batteries. As someone who used to be an intern myself on the team, I can confidently say you are unlikely to find a better group of mentors, or a more robust and engaging learning opportunity. The team works at the intersection of R&D and process scale-up, so this is an excellent way to get exposure to everything from lab-scale chemistry research to production-scale engineering. Do not worry if you do not meet all of the listed qualifications in the job posting - our intern hiring process is based far more on attitude and willingness to learn than experience. Please consider applying, I'd love to see representation from the CU Boulder Chemical and Biological Engineering Department!

Thank you!
