As an intern working with Harbinger's Testing team, you will play an active role in characterizing and validating the vehicle battery and various vehicle components. You will support the testing team by running electrical and thermal performance tests on vehicle battery packs and vehicle components, and learn how to grade pack/component performance based on your test results. You will help support offsite pack safety testing and get a crash course on best practices to test for, and ultimately avoid, full-pack thermal runaway. You will learn how to design instrumentation and test fixture setups that produce the data you are looking for. We have many opportunities depending on your interests to advance your knowledge of EV batteries and components in this rapidly expanding field. This intern is for the summer period, with dates flexible depending on school calendars.
Job Responsibility:
Work side-by-side with the battery test engineer to setup and run a variety of component, module, and pack-level tests
Work side-by-side with the component test engineer to setup and run a variety of component, system, and vehicle-level tests
Spend the majority of time in the lab, working to wire and integrate sensors, design and build test setups, and collect/process data
Own one/two long-term projects which can range from setting up and running technical experiments, to test methodology and procedure improvement, to equipment calibration or other lab organization activities
Assist with data collection and analysis from tests in-progress and become familiar (or more familiar) with LabVIEW and Python
Requirements:
A student or recent graduate with a Bachelors' in Engineering
Experience with automotive components, automotive HVAC experience is a plus
Good understanding of basic principles and relationships between voltage, power, and current as well as those between fluid pressure and flow
Previous experience with sensors like thermistors, thermocouples, pressure transducers, and flowmeters
Experience modeling with CATIA is a plus, but not required
Past history using LabVIEW, Python, or National Instruments cDAQ/cRIO including CAN would be useful
Nice to have:
