Senior🎓
Top SchoolSiddharth Kurwa is a battery engineer with 9 years of hands-on experience scaling cell and module manufacturing from pilot to 100 GWh-class production. He has driven equipment development, cell design optimization, validation, and NPI tech transfer across roles at Tesla and Natron Energy and now leads next‑gen battery scaling at a stealth startup in the Bay Area. Siddharth combines deep process and automation expertise—from jelly-roll winding and current collector welding to module automation—with a practical mechanical engineering background from UT Austin. Known for translating lab concepts into volume-manufacturable solutions, he brings cross-functional leadership and a bias for rapid iteration in high-throughput production environments. An early maker and prototyper, he also has roots in mechatronics and spacecraft recovery hardware that inform his systems-level approach to battery engineering.
