- Strong foundation in physics-based modeling for continuous and discrete systems using first principles
- Mechatronic system synthesis methods
- Proficiency in linear and nonlinear system modeling, simulation, and control theory
- Experience with multi-disciplinary optimization techniques (model-based and data-driven)
- Advanced knowledge of intelligent data modeling using state-of-the-art AI/ML techniques, including large language models (LLMs)
- Proficiency in Matlab, GT-Thermal, Python, including ML frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow, as well as PySpark
Responsibilities
- Advance the state-of-the-art battery systems for BEV, PHEV, HEV, and EREV architectures
- Innovation in Battery Systems (Structure/Electrical/Thermal) – design, packaging, integration, safety and assembly
- Battery system modeling, including new techniques and methods as needed.
- Battery system synthesis: development of system and subsystem with features and specifications to meet advanced requirements on volumetric energy density, safety, thermal management, fast-charging, and cost.
- Apply optimization techniques to assess and refine battery system performance and specifications
- Breadboarding and integration of battery system hardware elements for proof-of-concept demonstration where needed
- Support development of research strategy and technology roadmaps
Other
- This role is categorized as hybrid. This means the successful candidate is expected to report to Warren, MI three times per week or other frequency dictated by the business.
- This job may be eligible for relocation benefits
- U.S. Citizenship required pursuant to government contract
