Description

  • Own end-to-end development of cell validation programs from requirements through experiment design, execution, analysis, engineering recommendations, and continuous improvement.
  • Develop and execute cell characterization programs for capacity, impedance, power capability, efficiency, thermal behavior, and aging performance.
  • Design validation plans for electrical, thermal, environmental, mechanical, and abuse testing to qualify cells for drone applications.
  • Design experiments to evaluate cycle life, calendar aging, fast charging, temperature performance, storage conditions, and operational limits.
  • Develop custom fixtures, instrumentation, wiring, thermal interfaces, and automation to support repeatable, high-throughput cell testing.
  • Operate and improve battery cyclers, environmental chambers, thermal measurement systems, DAQ equipment, and laboratory instrumentation.
  • Develop automated test scripts, data processing pipelines, and reporting tools using Python, MATLAB, LabVIEW, or equivalent software.
  • Analyze large experimental datasets to identify degradation mechanisms, performance trends, failure modes, and optimization opportunities.
  • Perform post-test teardown inspections and correlate electrical performance with mechanical and thermal observations.
  • Support supplier qualification, incoming cell validation, technology benchmarking, and root cause investigations involving field-return hardware.

Requirements

  • Experience in battery cell engineering, electrochemical testing, energy storage systems, or validation engineering appropriate to career level.
  • Experience developing or executing battery cell characterization, life testing, abuse testing, or reliability testing.
  • Strong understanding of lithium-ion battery fundamentals, including cell chemistry, degradation mechanisms, thermal behavior, and electrical performance.
  • Experience operating battery cyclers, environmental chambers, DAQ systems, thermal instrumentation, and laboratory equipment.
  • Experience developing automated test software or data analysis tools using Python, MATLAB, LabVIEW, or equivalent platforms.
  • Ability to design experiments using statistical methods and interpret large experimental datasets.
  • Familiarity with battery safety standards and abuse testing methodologies.
  • Experience with thermocouples, RTDs, current and voltage measurement, impedance measurement, and thermal imaging.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to communicate technical findings and influence engineering decisions.
