Firmware Engineer - BMS; Battery Team

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology. By bringing the expertise, technology, and business model of the 21st century’s most innovative companies to the defense industry, Anduril is changing how military systems are designed, built and sold. Anduril’s family of systems is powered by Lattice OS, an AI-powered operating system that turns thousands of data streams into a realtime, 3D command and control center.

As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years.

• Architect and develop robust battery management system (BMS) algorithms, to be applied across different programs and product lines across Anduril
• Algorithms to include battery state handling, enable/disable switch (ie. contactor or FET) control, cell balancing, state-of-charge (SOC) estimation, state-of-health (SOH), state-of-power (SOP) power limits, communications/drivers, fault handling, isolation monitoring, high-voltage interlock loop (HVIL), etc.
• Collaborate with battery systems engineers to translate battery system-level requirements to actionable software/validation requirements
• Collaborate with battery test engineers and systems engineers to characterize battery cell equivalent circuit models and deploy them to BMS SW algorithms
• Rapidly develop and validate BMS algorithms in Simulink using test harnesses (leveraging battery model simulations and/or logged battery cell/pack data)
• Leverage automated software regression testing to improve long-term efficiency of software-in-loop (SIL) and hardware-in-loop (HIL) testing
• Leverage Simulink-to-C auto code generation to rapidly transition from functional algorithms to complied artifacts for deployment and integrate the generated artifacts into the existing firmware codebase.

• Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering, Software Engineering or Computer Science
• Demonstrated deployment of robust Battery Management System software or firmware to a multi-cell battery module or pack
• Experience in BMS HW/SW validation methods- including software-in-the-loop (SIL/SITL), model-in-the-loop (MIL/MITL), and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL/HITL) testing
• Good C coding ability for embedded systems
• Experience integrating microcontrollers with analog and digital sensors
• Experience developing firmware in bare-metal or RTOS environments
• Experience in cell equivalent circuit model (ECM) development and deployment to battery management systems
• Experience in battery characterization methods: mission profile validation, equivalent-circuit model characterization, cycle/calendar life assessment, safety features, etc.
• Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance

• Graduate Degree in Electrical Engineering, Software Engineering or Computer Science with applied focus on battery management systems
• Familiarity with common electrochemical energy storage materials, technologies, and boundaries of operation
• Demonstrated experience in battery testing, modelling, controls, and module/pack integration/operation
• Debugging skills with JTAG, SWD, Oscilloscopes, and Logic analyzers
• Experience with Simulink model development and auto code generation
