- Conducting system-level simulations, modeling, and performance analysis
- Ensuring compliance with industry standards, safety regulations, and certification requirements
- Supporting prototype builds, testing, and validation activities (DV/PV)
- Diagnosing and resolving complex technical issues related to HV systems and battery performance
- Mentoring junior engineers and providing technical leadership within the team
- Interfacing with suppliers and partners to ensure component quality and integration
- Working with automotive CAN bus, including CAN bus logging (using Vector CANalyzer or similar)
The ideal candidate will have:
- A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field
- 7+ years of experience in HV battery systems, energy storage, or electrified powertrain development
- Strong understanding of lithium-ion battery technology, BMS, and HV safety principles
- Experience with system engineering processes (requirements, V&V, FMEA, etc.)
- Proficiency in engineering tools such as MATLAB/Simulink, CAD tools, and data analysis platforms
- Knowledge of relevant standards (e.g., ISO 26262, UN 38.3, IEC/UL standards)
- Hands-on experience with testing, validation, and troubleshooting of HV systems
