Battery NEXUS | Thermo-Mechanical Research Engineer
You're a Thermo-Mechanical Engineer / Technology Research Scientist who'll work on development of advanced engineering high temperature sensors operating at up to 1400oC in aerospace applications. You must be able to look at a problem from first principles and investigate different materials and technologies.
You'll be researching materials for the development of OEM integrated sensor solutions with leading global companies in the Aerospace, Automotive and Robotics industries for the measurement of Torque, Force, Pressure and Temperature. Current applications include torque systems for eDrive motors, motor racing driveline shafts and torque systems for aerospace engines. The sensor systems utilise proprietary technology and componentry including sensing elements and a dedicated ASIC. The ASIC delivers a RF signal to the sensing elements and receives their resonant response, from which the physical measurement can be established using software analysis and calibration algorithms.
You'll have strong engineering, physics and/or materials science understanding. They would work as part of integrated team of engineers looking the full system including mechanical, electrical and manufacturing. The role brings with it the ability to use a wide range of experiences and knowledge, while at the same time, working within a flexible and creative team.
Key Responsibilities:
· Design and development of high temperature electro-mechanical sensing systems, utilising 3D and FEA modelling and testing.
· Researching high temperature materials and components for use in sensing systems and using this information to help develop new sensing solutions.
· Work with suppliers to select and qualify components and materials and ensure compliance with quality and industry standards.
· Analyse and interpret technical specifications, schematics, and engineering drawings to create innovative designs that meet project requirements.
· Participate in design reviews, and recommend design modifications to improve functionality, reliability, and manufacturability.
· Maintain knowledge of industry trends, best practices, and emerging technologies, and apply them to improve design processes and product performance.
Qualifications and Experience:
Education:
· PhD or Master's degree in Engineering or Materials related science subject.
Experience:
· Research or industrial experience into high temperature materials ideally with Piezo properties, coatings and harsh environments.
· The design and testing of mechanical systems and components in high temperature environments
· Expertise in at least one of the following industry standard software tools; MATLAB, Simulink, COMSOL, SolidWorks and, be proficient in Python & C.
Personal attributes:
· Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, able to identify and propose solutions to complex technical challenges.
· Self-motivated.
· Strong communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams and communicate technical information to non-technical stakeholders.
