WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM ONE DAY TO THE NEXT…

• Design analog and mixed-signal schematics for BMS hardware, including cell voltage/current/temperature sensing, balancing, protection, and isolation, while coordinating with dedicated resources for PCB layout
• Support embedded software for BMS microcontrollers, including protection logic and monitoring functions
• Prototype, bring up, and validate BMS hardware at cell, module, and pack level
• Coordinate with other functional teams, including layout, mechanical, software, and certification engineers
• Build and troubleshoot hardware, including soldering, operation of test equipment, and daily work in both office and test lab environments
• Design hardware, embedded or PC-software tools to support product verification and manufacturing
• Prototype and execute test programs to verify compliance with applicable performance, regulatory, and quality requirements
• Create and document designs in required formats, including BOMs, ECOs, and work instructions

WE ARE ONE OF THE BEST PLACES TO WORK…

• We provide above-market pay and a comprehensive benefits package.
• We promote an environment where you can excel in your career while still maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
• Our facility is climate controlled, clean, organized, and safe. We operate in a professional, light manufacturing environment.
