At Relectrify, we're on a mission to engineer the future of battery energy storage. We are building a disruptive platform that dramatically reduces the cost of storage by unlocking significantly more energy from every battery cell.  We want to see a world abundant with clean energy and believe we will make a meaningful contribution.

Our core values fuel and motivate our work:

1. Prioritise what matters most: We strive to work with clear objectives and understand why they are the right goals to pursue.
2. Think critically: We base our decisions on informed, open-minded evaluations, not on hierarchy or gut feelings.
3. Be decisive: We prioritise action and continuously move forward, adapting as new data becomes available.
4. Quality and elegance in everything: We put in the effort to distil complexity and make things as clear and impactful as possible.
5. Collaborate or fail: We seek to work with those who excel and recognise that partnerships are essential to our success.
6. Get jobs done: We focus on the core task – the job to be done – and we aren't content until we've achieved the desired outcome.

We embrace diverse experiences to fuel our collective success, ensuring everyone can do their best work.
