Battery Systems Integration Engineer - 15721

Make a change
In a world suffering from pollution and in a highly competitive industry, National Electric Vehicle Sweden AB (NEVS) was founded with the determination to make a change.

To improve by challenging the conservative and complex.

We believe, or in fact we know, that most people both want to do well and to find joy in what they are doing. So unlike most, we combine the two.

Now we are joining hands with strong technical, industrial and financial partners to become a leading manufacturer of electric vehicles aiming for our vision - to shape mobility for a more sustainable future.

We are building up a strong team in Sweden and China for this inspiring journey. If you feel that you want to be a part of this challenge and make a change - you should join us!

 

Our Engineering department is creating a strong foundation of skills and we are therefore looking for a Battery Systems Integration Engineer

If you are a dynamic, always questioning person, and you always wanted to push the world forward on a faster pace… you think that physics and technology boundaries are there to be challenged and trespass, but you always thought you needed the opportunity and team to make that change?

We BELIEVE than we can do things different, better. THIS IS OUR WHY! If this is also your stance, then this is your chance. You definitely belong here with us!

Description

Part of the ABT organization within NEVS and responding to the ABT SW-FW Architecture Manager, with strong responsibility in Designing and delivering manufacturing effective and robust integration solutions on gate time for current and upcoming projects. The System Integration Engineer ensures the Li-ion battery system operates properly and safely within the vehicle through design analysis and testing. The System Integration (SI) Engineer works the engineering team to highlight and prevent (and resolve) issues resulting from incompatibilities between the vehicle platform and the battery system. The SI is engaged from the prototype stage through launch and becomes the expert in understanding the electrical interfaces between the vehicle and battery including high-voltage wiring, contactor and relay behavior, low voltage control wiring, application-specific protocols, message sets and diagnostics, and electromagnetic compatibility and grounding. Additionally, this role is intended to support cross functional integration together with thermal management and mechanical teams. This is a systems-level role.

 

The role as Lead Engineer Embedded Systems involves;

- ongoing: Develop and maintain standards and checklists for use in assessing compatibility and safety of battery systems and application platforms.
- during the early product development phase: Learn and analyze the electrical, electronic and mechanical interfaces between the vehicle platform and the battery pack.
- establish fluency regarding host vehicle-to-battery networks including terminations, messages, and analytical tools (e.g., CANape)
- establish fluency regarding diagnostic messages and related failure modes (what causes each fault to trigger) and response modes (how the battery and the vehicle respond)
- establish understanding of vehicle electrical distribution system (harnesses, shielding, routing) and grounding topologies.
- during vehicle prototype testing phases: Support HW/SW with system reviews and troubleshooting/problem solving. Provide lessons learned feedback to the appropriate engineering teams as issues are encountered and resolved.
- serve as the primary technical interface for integration of all application interfaces, including electrical, communication, mechanical, thermal, and other ancillary items.

 

Additional Support Responsibilities:

- Understand technical requirements and build multi-generation technical plans for different applications.
- Assess competitive technologies for system level innovation, cost, performance, and functional advantages.

 

We can offer you;

- the possibility to develop an advanced Engineering knowledge, and a professional career as pioneer in future car technologies,
- a young, dynamic, experienced multicultural group with a strong TEAM workflow,
- a direct relation with high performance EV engineering force with several projects experience,
- and the opportunity to work with NEW disruptive graphene battery technologies, pioneering in the OEM industry being actively involved in the application of ground-breaking technologies/systems, setting new trends in the industry.

 

We are looking for someone who;

- is B.S. in Electrical or Controls Engineering or equivalent
- has some experience in electric vehicle programs, with battery integration a plus
- working knowledge of CANalyzer, CANoe and NI-based analysis and development tools
- has understanding in embedded system
- has understanding of Battery Management Systems and relationships between controllable attributes, and battery life and performance.
- has excellent communications and interpersonal skills
- has strong English skills, both spoken and written
- has knowledge in Debugging
- is a self-starter who takes the initiative to find solutions to technical challenges
- ha demonstrate knowledge of and proficiency with creative problem solving methods

 

Following is preferred but not required.

- Standard, ISO 26262
- Several big project experience
- Driving License B

 

To be successful in this role, you need to:

- Be a team player with good communication skills.
- Ability to adapt to new challenges and cultures
- Be driven for results
- Be creative, solution-oriented and open minded
- Be a communicative, positive and well organized person
- Be able to manage and thrive in a changing environment
- See traveling as an advantage and as a positive part of your job

 

Great consideration will be given to your personal aptitude for the position.
