Battery Management System Developer

The company was founded in 2016 after winning the Scottish Higgs EDGE 2016 for its development of a Graphene layer manufacturing process. The transformational process is disruptive as it enables the use of Graphene in an unlimited number of applications. The company's design for manufacture (DfM) process creates 3D graphene in seconds and therefore enables high volume manufacture.

They are looking for an engineer or scientist to get their novel energy storage system to the market. You will join their multidisciplinary team and will develop supercapacitor module/packs for medium/high voltage electric devise/vehicles. Based in Stirling, you will deliver ongoing projects, as an integral member of the Novel Energy Storage Systems team. You will be interfacing with experts in other functional areas and have visibility of the whole system design.

You will be primarily responsible delivering projects, which include:
- Delivering projects on-time and on-budget
- Providing technical support for the design, development and validation of the medium/ high voltage supercapacitor module
- Building prototype devices
- Gather, select, analyse and interpret data
- Establishing criteria for QA measurements
- Ensuring safe operation of all process associated equipment
- Acting as a technical liaison with colleagues, customers and manufacturers

The successful candidate shall be able to demonstrate the following:

Education and Skills
- Relevant degree in either science or engineering is required
- Significant relevant experience in the field of battery management system
- Familiarity with software (e. Matlab, MiniTab, etc.) is desirable
- Use of 3D CAD is desirable

Essential Experience:
- Experience with/knowledge of supercapacitor/ battery Systems, supercapacitor / battery pack and or Fuel Cell Electromechanical Design
- You will have a number of years of experience of successfully delivering and leading projects either in an OEM
- Supercapacitor/battery system architectures and management systems
- Designing high current and high voltage (12 to 400Vdc) energy storage/ power systems, for consuming electronics and automotive systems
- Electrical component integration (up to 400V), design & development on production products, particularly HV supercapacitor/ battery systems and sub systems in an OEM environment
- Product delivery process from requirements capture through to design validation of HV supercapacitor/battery systems
- Compliance engineering to external standards, such as battery handling, EMC, vehicle safety, ISO26262 etc.
- Delivery of DFMEA for HVs

The following experience is highly beneficial but not essential:
- Supercapacitor/Battery management systems for Hybrid systems
- Familiarity with laboratory & field development & test equipment
- DCDC,ACDC converter and supercapacitor/battery charger design and development
- DFMEA for Electrical Systems
- Hands on experience of working live with HV systems (>50V)
- PLC design and programming
- Cell chemistries used in the supercapacitor
