Battery modules and battery assemblies Battery management and supervisory control systems Power electronics External electrical and communication interfaces Conduct technical trade studies and design reviews. Contribute directly to electrical architecture, interface design, component selection, schematic review and prototype implementation activities. Identify and evaluate new technologies for inclusion into next generation systems; including new integrated circuits & architectures, design methods & tools, and build models, simulations & prototypes. Identify opportunities to create products that build the business Verification, Validation & Integration Define verification and validation strategies. Lead integration activities across hardware, software and control systems. Participate and support hands-on debugging, electrical testing, troubleshooting and design iteration during prototype build and integration phases. Coordinate laboratory, HIL, prototype and demonstration testing. Ensure technical readiness at major program milestones. Safety & Compliance Gain understanding of compliance process and develop strategies for effective certifications Lead system-level hazard analyses and risk assessments. Define system protection strategies and fault management approaches. Support compliance with applicable military, aerospace and industry standards. Cross-Functional Collaboration Interface with engineering teams in Cockeysville, Valdosta and Bordeaux, France. Support project planning, technical reviews. Work closely with design engineers while personally contributing to selected technical work packages where electrical or systems expertise is required. Required Qualifications Education Bachelor's or Master's degree in Systems/Electrical Engineering or a closely related engineering discipline (electronics engineering, computer engineering, mechatronics engineering, etc) Experience Minimum 7 years of experience in complex product development, including hands-on electrical or systems design responsibilities. Experience progressing products through development and validation phases. Experience in the energy storage system is a plus. Demonstrated success in working with a multidisciplinary engineering program. Practical experience implementing or reviewing electrical designs, schematics, wiring diagrams, protection concepts or power conversion interfaces is highly desirable. Experience writing technical specifications/ proposal is a plus Technical Expertise Experience in several of the following areas: Systems Engineering (V-Cycle). Experience in Battery Systems and Battery Management Systems is highly desirable. Familiarity with Power Electronics and Power Conversion. Electrical architecture, circuit design, interface definition and prototype testing. System Integration and Verification. Good understanding of Functional Safety and Risk Analysis is required. Experience with Requirements Management Tools (Example: IBM Doors, PTC Codebeamer). Experience with Defense, Aerospace or Mission-Critical Systems. Battery Cell Electrochemistry understanding and tradeoff awareness will be helpful. Desired Qualities Strong technical leadership and decision-making capability. High degree of autonomy, with the ability to take ownership of activities from definition to execution in an early-stage development context. Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills. Ability to influence teams without direct authority. Customer-focused mindset. Comfortably operating in a fast-paced development environment. Passion for innovation and technology maturation. What Success Looks Like Within the first 18 months, you will: Successfully support advanced battery system development through key technology demonstration activities. Establish a robust systems engineering framework for the program. Deliver a validated system architecture supported by clear electrical interface definitions and prototype test evidence.
