Cell Characterization & Modeling Engineer

This is the full time role responsible for following -

• Test the cell against datasheet specifications (various chemistries - Li-ion, SS Li-ion, LiS, etc)
• Run characterization experiments on the cell as per usage profile
• Repeat the experiments in different conditions as per DoE to cover the overall operational envelope of the cell (DoD, Temperature, Mission profiles)
• Extract model parameters from the tests
• Optimize the model parameters for better accuracy at off-nominal conditions
• Validate the cell models
• Testing for Cycle Life Estimation
• Qualify cells through testing & characterization from a pool of cells to use into our battery packs
• Support on building electro-thermal models of cells
• Support on creating cell degradation forecasting models using insights from test data
• Interact and collaborate with cell manufacturers / suppliers
  

An ideal candidate for this role should have -

• Good understanding of electrochemistry fundamentals
• High energy and persistence
• Ability to learn on their own
• Knowledge of scripting in Python
  

Tech Skills Required

• Modeling experience with PyBaMM / GT-Suite (Autolion)
• Equivalent circuit modeling of Li-ion cells
• Working knowledge of Python for Data Analysis
• Knowledge of Cell Testing procedures
• Good with design of experiments
• Knowledge of HPPC, ARC (Accelerated Rate Calorimetry) tests
• Understanding of P2D (Pseudo 2D) models
• Knowledge of EIS (Electrochemical Impedence Spectroscopy)
