For this position, the battery system engineering team is looking for a Cell Engineer who has extensive knowledge in Lithium-ion battery cell chemistry. The Cell Engineer's major responsibility is to lead and review cell characterisation campaigns and cell test results to ensure the cell performance meets the cell specification. This role requires close collaboration with cell suppliers to guarantee that cell performance aligns with battery pack specifications, encompassing cell selection, performance simulations, and cell-level test results.Additionally, the role involves working closely with other System Engineers to create and validate 1D models and optimizing cell performance in conjunction with the battery design. The cell engineer is also assuming technology intelligence and benchmarking in the field of battery cell development.We are looking for people that share our core values: Customer Obsession, Ownership, Boldness, Excellence and Integrity. If you want to embrace our people-first values and make a real impact, Bold is your place!What You Will DoDefine and work with suppliers to investigate the next generation of battery cellsDevelop cell requirements and specificationsEstimate lifespan of the lithium-ion cells under various conditions using simulations and testsSupport SOC and SOH estimations of batteries under various conditionsLead cell selection to meet battery pack requirements which include mechanical, thermal, and electrical aspects.Lead conversations with cell suppliers on cell simulation, test procedure, data, performance review, and safety requirements.Research other OEM cell specifications, academic literature, and cutting-edge technology for the next generation of battery pack development.Work with the battery pack engineering team to increase the performance of the selected cell under foreseeable operational conditions.Work with the battery design teams to increase power density, gravimetric energy density reliability, and thus decrease cost of the batteries through better testing and modelling methodsGenerate and maintain our cell catalog to support the commercial team and projects divisionDefine and lead cell characterisation testing campaigns.What You Need to SucceedMasters' Degree in Chemical Engineering or related to electrochemistry2+ years of work experience in battery cell technologyAdvanced level of knowledge of cell chemistries and construction methodsExcellent team working skillsDemonstrable problem-solving experience with cell testing for battery pack development in series productionPrevious experience in Li-ion cell development and/or characterizationKnowledge in electrochemical characterization.Knowledge in the use of a potentiostat.What BOLD offers youHigh growth, multicultural and friendly environment: Be part of a start-up that thrives on high-performance EV technologyPrivate Health insurance (company level plan): Access to Sanitas plan at a reduced employee cost (for employees, spouse, or children)Brilliant colleagues and Top TalentRegular events and team-building activitiesOur ValuesCustomer Obsession – be accountable, be communicative, be unforgettableOwnership – be engaged, be passionate, be committed, be reliableIntegrity – be inspiring, be trustworthy, be supportive, be compassionateBoldness – be innovative, be confident, be fearless, be resilient, be authenticExcellence – be the best, be relentless, positive, be humbleDiversity & InclusionAt Bold Valuable Technologies, we consider our people our chief competitive advantage and as such we treat colleagues, candidates, clients, and business partners with equality, fairness, and respect, regardless of their age, disability, race, religion or belief, gender, sexual orientation, marital status or family circumstances.Our core values dictate how we live and work.
