What you will do
The Systems Integration/Test Engineer is responsible for defining, developing, and integrating Li‑Ion and/or ultra‑capacitor battery systems that meet OEM and regulatory requirements for low‑voltage (12V‑48V) automotive applications. This role involves developing and executing the integration and testing plans to ensure compliance with the functional, performance, and safety requirements of the system. This role requires collaboration with cross‑functional teams to deliver safe, reliable, and high‑performance energy storage solutions.
This position is ideal for candidates with a strong background in system integration and testing (right side of the V‑model) of power conversion modules such as DCDCs and battery technology.
- Define and manage thermal, electrical, and mechanical interfaces between the battery pack, BMS, and vehicle powertrain.
- Work closely with software, mechanical, and electrical teams to optimize system‑level interactions.
- Support Hardware‑in‑the‑Loop (HiL) and Model‑in‑the‑Loop (MiL) testing to validate system integration.
- Define electrical, thermal, and mechanical interfaces between the battery pack, ultra‑capacitor system, BMS, and vehicle powertrain.
- Lead the development of Design Verification Plans (DVPs), ensuring comprehensive validation coverage for system performance, durability, and compliance with OEM and regulatory standards.
- Document verification coverage of all requirements with traceability in the requirements management tool.
- Participate in system‑level validation, durability testing, and failure mode analysis.
- Support Hardware‑in‑the‑Loop (HiL), Model‑in‑the‑Loop (MiL), and system‑level validation to ensure robust performance.
- Assist in aging studies, thermal modeling, and electrical load analysis for predictive performance assessments.
- Support system‑level DFMEA, ensuring proper alignment with subsystem and component‑level DFMEAs.
