About Us: Kite Magnetics is a Melbourne-based clean energy company founded in 2022. We develop advanced materials that help make electric motors in EVs and other systems lighter, more efficient, and more sustainable. Our technology began as university research at Monash and is now moving into real world production with customers in the EV and clean energy sectors. We are a small but growing team combining engineering, manufacturing, and commercial expertise to take a complex physical product from lab to large scale production. This means our internal systems, processes, and data need to be strong, even as we move quickly. Joining Kite Magnetics now means helping to build the foundations of a high performing, well governed company that is aiming for global impact in the clean energy transition.
