Job Description
Job Description Summary
We are seeking a highly skilled Systems Engineer to provide critical technical leadership and systems thinking to our internal product design teams developing cuttingedge utilityscale BESS platforms. You will be instrumental in translating market needs application requirements and grid standards into robust system architectures and clear verifiable requirements for our hardware software controls and mechanical design groups. Your primary focus will be ensuring the cohesive design integration and validation of our BESS products enabling the creation of configurable reliable and costeffective solutions optimized for largescale grid applications. You will act as the technical bridge between product vision and detailed component design.Job Description
Key Responsibilities:
- Collaborate closely with Product Management and Application Engineering to interpret market trends customer use cases and generalized utility/grid requirements (grid services interconnection standards like IEEE 1547 for utilityscale BESS.
- Define and document clear concise and verifiable systemlevel product requirements.
- Decompose system requirements and allocate them effectively to relevant internal design teams (Power Electronics/PCS Battery Systems/BMS Controls & Software Mechanical/Thermal Safety).
- Manage product requirements and their traceability using designated tools and processes.
- Develop and maintain standardized modular and scalable system architectures for our utilityscale BESS product lines.
- Define key internal system interfaces (hardware software communication protocols) ensuring interoperability between subsystems developed by different teams.
- Lead systemlevel design tradeoff analyses to optimize the product platform for performance manufacturability serviceability reliability safety and cost.
- Define product configuration rules and guidelines to support modularity and projectspecific adaptation.
- Facilitate crossfunctional design reviews ensuring subsystem designs align with the overall system architecture and requirements.
- Assist design teams in understanding the implications of their design choices on other subsystems and overall system performance/safety.
- Define the overall strategy for integrating subsystems into a functional BESS product.
- Lead or participate in systemlevel FMEAs and Hazard Analyses during the design phase to identify and mitigate risks inherent in the product design.
- Define the systemlevel verification and design validation strategy for the BESS product platform.
- Collaborate with test engineering to develop comprehensive test plans (including Design Verification Testing DVT and supporting Type Testing) that ensure product requirements are met.
- Analyze system test results to validate the design against requirements providing feedback to design teams for necessary improvements.
- Ensure the BESS product architecture and subsystem requirements incorporate relevant industry standards (e.g. UL 9540 UL 1973 relevant IEC standards NFPA 855 common grid code principles) from the outset.
- Support the product certification process by ensuring design documentation and test evidence meet compliance requirements.
- Own the creation and maintenance of core systemlevel design documents: System Requirements Specifications System Architecture Descriptions ICDs System FMEAs V&V Plans.
Required Qualifications:
- Bachelors degree in Systems Engineering Electrical Engineering Mechanical Engineering or a related technical field.
- 10 years of experience in a systems engineering role within a product development environment focusing on complex electromechanical or power systems.
- Proven experience translating market/customer needs into technical system requirements for internal design teams.
- Strong understanding of system architecture principles modular design and interface definition.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Familiarity with relevant industry standards (UL IEC NFPA) and grid interconnection concepts (IEEE 1547.
- Experience with requirements management processes and tools (e.g. Jama DOORS).
- Excellent analytical problemsolving and technical communication skills tailored for collaboration within engineering teams.
- Experience working effectively in multidisciplinary R&D or product design teams.
- Experience developing platformbased or modular hardware/software products.
- Experience specifically in the design and development lifecycle of utilityscale BESS or closely related power conversion products.
- Experience leading systemlevel FMEAs FTAs or other safety/reliability analyses during design.
- Knowledge of power system simulation tools (e.g. MATLAB/Simulink PLECS PSCAD ETAP) applied to design validation.
