Experience 3
- 10 Years Location Akurdi (CTL)Maharashtra Nature of Job R&D; Job role Electrical and Electronics Role Overview: Responsible for leading the design, engineering, and integration of battery packs into electric vehicles (EVs), ensuring optimal mechanical performance, safety, manufacturability, and compliance with standards. Collaborates across cross-functional teams (thermal, electrical, testing, production) to develop world-class battery solutions for next-gen EV platforms. Key Responsibilities:
- Own the mechanical design, packaging, and integration of battery systems, from concept to production ramp-up.
- Collaborate with electrical, thermal, and embedded system teams to define and optimize battery interfaces for safety, reliability, and performance.
- Lead CAD modeling, simulation, and prototype development of battery enclosures and mounting structures (using tools like SolidWorks/Siemens NX).
- Develop and validate mechanical, thermal, and structural aspects of battery packs including housing, cell retention, connectors, harness, and electronic integration.
- Ensure robust mechanical integration for high-voltage isolation, crashworthiness, water ingress protection, and manufacturability (DFM/DFA).
- Support architecture definition through analysis of cost, mass, manufacturability, and lifetime performance.
- Drive subsystem requirements, specifications, and design verification planning in collaboration with cross-functional partners.
- Execute root cause/corrective action for integration, build, and launch issues.
- Generate detailed drawings, GD&T;, DFMEA, compliance documents and BOMs within PLM systems.
- Guide and mentor junior engineers and provide technical expertise for solving complex integration challenges in R&D.;
- Stay updated on regulations, standards (ISO, IEC, AIS), industry trends, and recent material/technology developments for battery integration.
- Support and lead physical testing, validation, and qualification of battery assemblies in collaboration with test teams. Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s/Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or relevant field.
- 3+ years experience in mechanical design/integration, ideally within EV battery packs or high-voltage systems.
- Proficient with 3D CAD tools and simulation software.
- Strong knowledge of battery technologies, materials, thermal management, and safety requirements.
- Demonstrated experience in cross-functional project teams and system engineering approaches.
- Familiarity with industry standards on EV battery safety, testing, and certification. Profile Standouts:
- Deep understanding of real-world integration constraints: crash, water/dust ingress, thermal runaway, manufacturability.
- Strong innovation and problem-solving skills for rapid prototyping and new technology evaluation.
- Experience with documentation, BOM management in PLM. Apply on Kit Job: kitjob.in/job/4miewa
