In this role, you will own the technical execution of battery modules and packs as they transition through validation and into launch.

Job Responsibility

  • Lead the Battery pack design improvements by building prototypes, DOE test plans inhouse and at CMs
  • Drive design for manufacturing improvements at component suppliers and FATP CMs
  • Ensure designs meet strict mechanical (shock/vibe), environmental (thermal/humidity), and safety (propagation/crush) requirements
  • Interpret test failures and drive design tweaks to ensure passing results
  • Act as the primary technical liaison with engineering headquarters and Battery Contract Manufacturers
  • Rigorously review First Article Inspections (FAI) and analyze CPK/PPK data to ensure the manufacturing process is stable and components meet specifications
  • Lead onsite execution (2-6 weeks/year travel) to resolve production bottlenecks
  • Define and scope lifecycle test needs associated with improving quality, and reliability components, assembly quality and reliability

Requirements

  • Mechanical Engineering degree with strong engineering and physics fundamentals
  • 5+ years in battery engineering with experience in cell selection, module hardware, and electrical interconnects
  • Proven ability to lead and execute distinct projects focused on advancing battery platform technologies
  • Deep understanding of design requirements for meeting battery safety and reliability standards (e.g., UN 38.3, UL 1642, SAE J2464)
  • Strong grasp of first principles thinking
  • Comfortable working in a high-velocity environment where priorities can shift rapidly

Nice to have

  • Expertise in 3D modeling and drafting in Catia V6
  • Structural and thermal simulation experience with Anys, Altair or similar CAE software
  • Familiarity with laser welding, wire bonding, and ultrasonic welding processes
  • Experience designing for high-volume automated assembly lines
  • Knowledge of battery safety standards (e.g., UN 38.3, UL 1642/1973)

What we offer

  • Robust health coverage
  • Excellent health, dental and vision insurance covered up to 100% by ALSO with FSA & HSA options
  • One Medical membership and dedicated insurance advocates
  • Rich fertility and family building benefits with Progyny
  • Flexible time off
