Expert BESS Simulation (all genders)

 
With whom you will CELLebrate

The mission has started. We proudly announce that in our Battery Valley we are starting our own battery cell production and the ramp up of our worldwide headquarters for global cell manufacturing. This includes ESS (Energy Storage System) & non-automotive applications. The ESS organization takes care of the upstream storage value chain. Our responsibility includes research, pre-development of materials and components, series development, prototyping, testing and analysis of ESS components & storages.

  
 
How you will CELLebrate
  • Leading the development and implementation of advanced SOC, SOE, SOH and battery modeling algorithms for the BMS of our energy storage system
  • Use of MATLAB Simulink for modeling the BESS in terms of losses, temperatures and lifetime.
  • Working closely with hardware engineers to ensure effective integration of the algorithms into the BMS/EMS
  • Develop and maintain embedded software for the BMS/EMS of the energy storage system
  • Deepen understanding of the overall functions and software implementations of the BMS/EMS
  • Work closely with hardware engineers to ensure effective integration of algorithmic solutions into the BMS, including communication protocols such as CAN and Modbus
  • Perform software functional safety analysis and design to ensure compliance with ISO 26262, Cyber Security ISO/SAE21434 and other relevant safety standards
  
 
What you need for our CELLebration
  • Bachelor's degree or higher in electrical engineering, mechatronics, computer science or a related field
  • At least 10 years of proven experience in embedded software development, especially with a focus on BMS/EMS and algorithm development
  • Proficiency in programming languages such as C, C++, Python
  • Extensive knowledge of MATLAB Simulink for the modeling and simulation of battery systems
  • Familiarity with real-time operating systems (RTOS) and the development of embedded systems
  • Knowledge of battery technologies, charging algorithms and energy storage principles
  • In-depth knowledge of development processes according to ISO 26262 and ASPICE
  • Previous work experience in grid-connected or off-grid energy storage projects
  
 
What else can you bring
  • Advanced technical skills and a deep understanding of technical principles
  • Experience of working in a demanding environment 
  • Experience in series development
  • Business fluent in English
 
What to look forward to
  • Flexible working hours from 28 to 40h per week
  • Possibility of a 4-day-week (up to 35h per week)
  • 30 days paid + 10 days unpaid leave
