ABOUT THE POSITION An Electronics Engineer is responsible for technical leadership related to designing and maintaining electronic systems in one or more products. An Electronics Engineer will typically be assigned to the design of battery electronics systems such as voltage, temperature, and current telemetry, cell balancing, communication buses, and safety disconnect systems using contactors or solid-state relays. Our products include a wide range of custom battery assemblies that contain Battery Management Systems (BMS), battery cells, electronics circuits, electrical connections, and mechanical/thermal structures. This position reports to the Engineering Manager.
Responsibilities- Interpret and manage customer and internal requirements as they relate to designing, testing, fielding, and sustaining compliant battery electronics systems.
- Develop battery electronics systems from first concept prototype through validation and qualification testing.
- Perform circuit design, analysis, simulation, and PCB layout around customer requirements to perform in harsh environments including vibration, shock, thermal cycling, humidity, corrosive atmospheres, and radiation.
- Perform design verification testing on PCB assembly prototypes, document results, and iterate on the design.
- Design measurement, analog signal conditioning, and A/D conversion circuits for various physical battery parameters such as voltage, current, temperature, and time.
- Design and manage high current conduction paths from tens to hundreds of amperes for both battery charge and discharge.
- Perform and drive parts selection, screening, testing, and cost estimation in a military/aerospace environment with stringent requirements for military and space rated components.
- Generate and maintain electronics engineering data deliverables such as drawings and PCB manufacturing data packages, compliance/verification matrices, FMEAs, electronics test reports, de-rating and parts stress analyses, current distribution analyses, reliability/MTBF analyses, etc.
- Perform root cause analysis and define and implement corrective actions in response to technical design, manufacturing, test, and performance issues.
- Generate and maintain product-focused ERP system data, such as Inventory Part records and Product Structures (indented BOMs).
- Perform hardware support tasks including troubleshooting of existing assemblies, selection and justification of alternate components or alternate component sources, qualification testing, documentation updates and corrections, and other hardware related tasks as may be required.
- Prepare and conduct presentations to peers, management, and external customers (written and oral).
- Participate in the review and preparation of proposals, when needed.
- Assist the Program Manager in identifying and mitigating risks to product quality, schedule, and cost.
- Other tasks as assigned.
