Senior Cell Modeling & Analytics Engineer
$140,000–$175,000 year
On-siteBroomfield, Colorado, United States
Job Summary
Develop, validate, and refine battery life models to predict cell performance under various operating conditions. Build thermal, equivalent circuit, and physics-based electrochemical models to characterize heat generation, state estimation, and degradation mechanisms. Develop 3D battery simulations for spatially resolved electrochemical, thermal, and mechanical behavior. Analyze large datasets to identify trends, anomalies, and optimization opportunities while implementing Python algorithms for advanced data analysis. Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate models into system-level simulations and assist in root-cause analysis for battery failures.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering, Chemistry, Materials Science, Data Science, Computer Science, or a related field
- Minimum of 5 years of hands-on experience in battery modeling and battery data analysis
- Deep understanding of lithium-ion and/or sodium-ion battery technologies, including their failure mechanisms
- Hands-on experience with cell modeling approaches spanning thermal / heat-generation modeling, equivalent circuit modeling, and physics-based electrochemical modeling
- Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, with experience in data manipulation, physical modeling, statistical modeling, and machine learning
- Experience working with large datasets, performing statistical analysis, and using data visualization tools
- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to interpret and analyze complex datasets
Desired Qualifications
- PhD degree in Engineering, Chemistry, Materials Science, Data Science, Computer Science, or a related field
- Experience in the simulation of battery materials, electrodes, and cells
- Knowledge of electrochemical models and battery simulation tools (e.g., COMSOL, GT-AutoLion, PyBaMM, Simulink)
- Experience developing 3D battery models for coupled electrochemical-thermal-mechanical simulation
- Experience in advanced battery data analysis, such as dQ/dV fitting and EIS modeling
