As we manufacture our products for the first time, expect a slew of surprise issues that will need rapid root cause investigation and resolution demanding critical thinking, persistence, and collaboration. It's going to be an exciting ride building something from nothing, and we hope you join us making giant batteries to tackle climate change!
