The role
You will ensure the long-term reliability, durability, and performance of battery energy storage systems. You will develop reliability models, derive mission profiles, and support failure analysis investigations.
What you will do
- Develop and apply reliability methodologies to assess product durability and service life.
- Derive mission profiles using field data or simulation-based approaches.
- Contribute to damage models to evaluate degradation and estimate useful life.
- Translate mission profiles into accelerated test conditions.
- Support Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA) and other reliability assessments.
- Guide technical discussions and investigations into product and component failures.
- Analyze field performance, test results, and observed failure trends.
- Prepare technical documentation and reliability reports for customers.
- Work with electrical, mechanical, battery, systems, and test engineering teams.
- Help develop and improve reliability methods, analysis tools, and processes.
Required qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related engineering discipline.
- 3+ years of experience in reliability engineering, product reliability, design validation, or a closely related engineering field.
- Experience developing mission profiles from field data, operating conditions, and/or simulation-based approaches.
- Familiarity with reliability models, damage models, degradation assessments, or useful-life predictions for electrical or electromechanical products.
- Understanding of electrical failure mechanisms, component degradation, and the relationship between operating conditions, environmental exposure, and product life.
- Experience developing or supporting accelerated life and reliability testing approaches.
- Familiarity with DFMEA, reliability risk assessments, or other structured engineering methodologies.
- Ability to investigate failures systematically and identify appropriate non-destructive methods.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
- Strong technical writing and communication skills.
Nice to have
- Experience with lithium-ion batteries, battery management systems (BMS), battery packs, or battery energy storage systems.
- Experience with products deployed in demanding environmental conditions or climates.
- Familiarity with thermal, electrical, mechanical, and environmental stressors affecting battery performance.
- Experience with field reliability data, degradation trends, statistical reliability analysis, and predictive modeling.
- Familiarity with reliability testing and safety standards such as UL 1973 and UL 9540.
- Experience working with industrial products throughout design, validation, certification, manufacturing, and field deployment.
- Familiarity with failure analysis techniques such as electrical characterization, thermography, microscopy, or other non-destructive inspection methods.
- Experience developing customer-facing technical documentation for industrial products.
