01Overview
Technical Co-Founder (Generator & Electric Machine Design, Wind) Company: Recharga Chargine Pvt. Ltd. Jaipur, Rajasthan (DPIIT-recognised deep-tech clean-energy startup)
Role: Technical Co-Founder / Chief Technical Officer
Commitment: Full-time, long-term. Equity-first with co-inventor IP credit. About us
We're building the RADAX Generator a patent-pending modular hybrid axial-radial flux permanent-magnet direct-drive architecture for wind turbines. Our business is B2B IP licensing to wind turbine OEMs worldwide, with later expansion into hydro generation and hybrid-vehicle alternators. We're at working-prototype design stage, moving from simulation toward a physical prototype. The role
You will own and lead the entire technical side of the company architecture, electromagnetic and mechanical design, simulation, prototyping, and the technical roadmap through to OEM validation. This is the single most senior engineering seat in the company. You set technical direction; you are not asked to carry any commercial, fundraising, or business-development load that stays with the founding/commercial team.
Your job is to make the machine real and make it best-in-class. You'll be responsible for
Owning the full generator design: electromagnetic (PM machine) design plus the mechanical/structural design of a direct-drive architecture.
Leading FEA/simulation work (ANSYS Maxwell / Motor-CAD) and resolving hard multi-physics problems including electromagnetic cross-coupling and BEMF behaviour in a combined axial-radial topology.
Driving the path from TRL 5 toward a validated prototype (TRL 7).
Building and leading a small engineering team over time.
Being a named co-inventor and technical authority in OEM and investor conversations. Must-haves
Deep, demonstrable expertise in both electrical machine design (permanent-magnet synchronous generators; axial and/or radial flux) and mechanical/structural engineering of rotating machines.
Hands-on generator design experience not adjacent motor/EV work only.
Working knowledge of the wind turbine market, drivetrains, and what OEMs actually specify and buy.
Fluency with EM simulation tools (ANSYS Maxwell, Motor-CAD, or equivalent) and structural FEA.
A track record of taking a design from concept to physical hardware. Nice-to-haves
Direct-drive PMSG experience specifically.
Patents / published IP as inventor.
Exposure to manufacturability and OEM qualification processes. What we offer
Founding-level equity and named co-inventor status on core IP.
Full ownership and autonomy over the technical domain.
A genuine deep-tech problem with global licensing upside.
(Cash compensation is limited pre-funding and scales after our seed/pre-Series A round we're upfront about that.) This role is NOT for you if
You're optimising for near-term salary, a stable corporate seat, or a short engagement. We want a builder who's in it for years and thinks in terms of what RADAX becomes, not this quarter. .
