Hybrid, 3 days on / 2 days off working offered

Key skills required

• Academic or industrial experience in mathematical modelling.
• Understanding of key degradation processes relevant to batteries.
• Experience in battery modelling, including reduced order and physics-based models.

Responsibilities

• Support the development of model parameterisation algorithms using lab-based and field data.
• Propose, develop, and lead the implementation of novel model architectures designed to capture application-specific degradation and/or safety risks.
• Support the development of battery characterisation test procedures optimised for accurate and rapid electro-thermal-ageing model parameterisation, or robust model validation.
• Develop empirical, physics-based, and physics-informed Li-ion battery models to predict electrical behaviour and degradation.
• Evaluate and optimise model performance based on cell-in-the-loop validation tests.

Why Join Elysia?

• Recently signed a partnership with a major European OEM to provide Battery Intelligence for future vehicles.
• Full life cycle project exposure working on multiple projects
• Technical empowerment opportunities & opportunities to progress your career by becoming a Subject matter expert or progressing into management
• Exposure to next-generation technology

Elysia's biggest project is with a major European OEM helping them understand what’s going on inside the batteries with pure data. You can see from very early whether something is going wrong in the vehicles allowing the OEM to be proactive to get these vehicles off the road before future problems occur. Equally, if the battery life is good you can then focus on the charging & performance capabilities.
