Battery Control Systems Integration Engineer

We are seeking a Battery Control Systems Integration Engineer with expertise in developing advanced control algorithms for Battery Management Systems (BMS). The ideal candidate will be responsible for modeling and simulating control strategies using MATLAB/Simulink, leading Model-in-the-Loop (MIL) and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing and performing in-depth data analysis to support system validation and performance optimization. This role will also require collaboration across departments to ensure the seamless integration of BMS into various applications, both internally and externally.

Reports to: Control Systems Lead

Responsibilities:

• Develop and implement control algorithms for BMS, focusing on safety, performance, and robustness.
• Build and maintain dynamic models of battery systems in MATLAB/Simulink for example UKF model and other linear system control model.
• Lead Model-in-the-Loop (MIL) and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing activities to validate control strategies.
• Perform data analysis using MATLAB or similar tools to support algorithm development and fault diagnosis.
• Work cross-functionally with hardware, software, and testing teams to integrate and verify control solutions.
• Document modeling assumptions, test procedures, and validation results clearly and systematically.
• Become an expert on the Corvus Battery Management System (BMS) and related battery chemistries, products, and applications.
• Define interfaces and documentation for the BMS and assist with manufacturing test development.
• Collaborate with the customer service team to develop training and service documentation.
• Ensure compliance with industry standards, supporting the compliance team with rule interpretations and audits.
• Hands-on operation and troubleshooting of the BMS in various settings (factory, test lab, on-board vessels).
• Assist in configuring BMS and simulate various operational conditions to optimize battery system performance.
• Lead and assist with troubleshooting, 8D investigations, and failure analysis.
• Support internal and external teams to calibrate and validate developed models through testing.
• Travel internationally as needed (up to 3 weeks annually).
  
  

Education and Work Experience:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Control Systems, or a related field.
• Minimum of four years’ relevant experience.
