The position is located in the truck pre-development area and is part of a pre-development project for megawatt charging. Megawatt charging is a key technology for battery-electric trucks with some technical challenges. Within the framework of the project different concepts are analyzed a prototype system of a charging path is set up and evaluated with regard to technical a step that is still missing suitable cell chemistries for medium-term series use are to be evaluated.

In addition to the technical feasibility the economic parameters of a possible concept are also relevant for the customer.

You can look forward to these tasks:

• Familiarization with the topic and literature research

• Development of an evaluation framework to derive cell requirements with regard to technical properties (e.g. minimum energy density) and economic properties (e.g. maximum cell price)
• Definition of application-oriented analysis scenarios
• Derivation of scenario-specific cell requirements
• Evaluation of specific cell options based on data sheets in the defined observation scenarios
• Potential analysis compared to todays cell concepts
• Discussion of the results and outlook for further optimisation opportunities
• Collaboration in a dynamic and flexible pre-development team

We are looking forward to:

• Degree with a technical or scientific specialization
• Knowledge of the basics of electrical engineering
• Experience with MS Office programs
• Independent and goal-oriented way of working

• Strong commitment and effort
