As a Battery System Design Engineer at AVL, you will be part of the development of future electric powertrains. The role combines practical work with battery design and pack development with a broad understanding of electromobility and integration of battery systems in modern vehicles.
You will work hands-on with the development, verification and integration of HV-battery systems in a technically advanced environment where the battery is a central part of the electric powertrain. You will work closely with areas such as electric propulsion, HV-systems, verification and system integration, where the interaction between battery, inverter, electric motor and other vehicle functions is an important part of the development.
You will be part of an international network of competence and at the same time a key player in our local commitment to electromobility and battery systems in Sweden. The role offers great opportunities to influence technical solutions, working methods and customer projects in close collaboration with both local and global teams.
Responsibilities:
- Development and integration of battery systems for electric vehicles, from early concepts and construction solutions to verification, testing and finished product.
- Development of battery modules and packs on a system level, where mechanical integration, function, verification and quality are central parts of the work.
- Analysis of results from simulations and tests and conversion of these to technical improvements and robust construction solutions.
- Construction, commissioning and verification of battery systems before testing and delivery, as well as testing and validation of module and pack systems in vehicle-related applications.
- Technical support in customer projects, review and release of technical documentation and collaboration with AVL's global network within battery systems and electromobility.
Profile:
- Experience of battery system development and a broad interest and understanding of electromobility and electric powertrains.
- Civil engineering degree in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, mechatronics or equivalent.
- 3-5 years' experience of development of battery systems within automotive or related industries.
- Practical experience of battery design on module and pack level including cooling and safety concepts (Thermal Propagation).
- Experience of mechanical integration and construction in CAD environment.
- Good understanding of HV-systems and relevant safety standards.
- Experience of CAD tools such as CATIA, Creo or similar.
- Very good communication skills in Swedish and English.
- B driving license.
Preferred qualifications:
- Experience of verification and testing of battery modules and packs.
- Experience of system integration within electric vehicles.
- Experience from SOP projects.
Person:
- Technically curious, analytical and solution-oriented.
- Comfortable in a role where practical engineering work is combined with system understanding and cross-functional collaboration.
- Self-motivated and responsible, while also appreciating working closely with other disciplines within electromobility and product development.
- Ability to switch between detail focus and overall perspective and feeling comfortable in technical discussions both internally and externally with customers.
We offer:
- A global technology company in the forefront of development, simulation and testing for future mobility.
- Work with advanced technology within electrification, software, autonomous driving and energy-efficient powertrains.
- Help our customers develop next-generation mobility solutions.
- Work in a technically advanced environment with leading actors within automotive and electromobility - in a culture where innovation, collaboration and technical development are central.
