Responsibilities

  • Develop detailed 3D models and 2D drawings of battery cells (pouch, prismatic) and battery pack assemblies, considering factors such as robustness from mechanical shock or vibration, energy density, power density, safety, manufacturability, and cost.
  • Utilize principles of mechanical engineering and material science to analyze the structural integrity of battery cells and packs under various operating conditions (vibration, shock, compression, thermal cycling).
  • Apply a thorough understanding of the internal components and architecture of various battery cell chemistries and cell structure (e.g., winding, stacking) to inform design decisions and ensure compatibility.
  • Create and maintain comprehensive design documentation, including 3D models, 2D drawings, specifications, BOMs (Bill of Materials), and test reports.
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams, including electrical engineers, thermal engineers, manufacturing engineers, and cell suppliers, to ensure seamless integration and optimal performance.

Qualification

Required

  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, or a related engineering discipline.
  • 2 years of experience in creating 3D CAD model for battery cell internal structure or pack design including PCM/BMU for consumer electronics, or 1 year of experience with an advanced degree.
  • Experience in using 3D CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, CATIA, NX).

Preferred

  • Experience with battery testing standards and procedures.
  • Experience in designing for manufacturability and assembly.
  • Understanding of mechanical characterization principles and techniques relevant to battery materials and structures.
  • Understanding of the internal cell structure and manufacturing process.
