Senior Battery Test Engineer

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology.

As a Senior Battery Test Engineer, you will enable extremely accelerated/aggressive battery development timelines by burning down risks at the cell, module, and pack level via development testing.

Responsibilities:

• Support Battery System Engineers who support battery programs across Anduril with common test procedures/approaches at the cell, module, and pack level
• Design tools and protocols to enable efficient documentation of test procedures/results without adding significant time or wasted effort
• Write robust, modular data processing scripts and tools to efficiently provide plots/outputs that are required to enable informed system-level decisions
• Based on BMS/algorithm requirements, design robust and pragmatic test procedures to be executed iteratively at the model-in-loop (MIL), software-in-loop (SIL), and hardware-in-loop (HIL) levels
• Support validation of battery management system (BMS) algorithms, to include battery state handling, enable/disable switch control, cell balancing, state-of-charge (SOC) estimation, state-of-health (SOH), state-of-power (SOP) power limits, fault handling, isolation monitoring, high-voltage interlock loop (HVIL), etc.
• Collaborate with Development Test and Battery Systems engineers to characterize battery cell equivalent circuit models and deploy them to battery HILs or simulations

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s Degree in related Engineering discipline, ideally with emphasis in battery development
• 7+ years of professional experience in a related engineering field
• Experience in an immersive interdisciplinary technical project
• Demonstrated validation of battery cells and modules/packs against system requirements
• Capability to compress timelines without sacrificing product quality
• Experience in hardware automation and software-hardware communication/integration
• Demonstrated proficiency/utilization of Python or Matlab to process large data files
• Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance

Benefits:

• Highly competitive equity grants
• Top-tier benefits for full-time employees, including health, recovery, and other support
