Overview
Job Title:
Electrical Engineer V – Simulation (Electrified Powertrain Systems)
Duration:
Long Term
Job Description:
This role leads simulation-driven assessment of electric machines, power electronics, and battery systems—centered on system-level performance, energy, and thermal analysis across electrified drive trains. Highly technical and cross-functional; not manufacturing-focused.
- Translate machine load conditions, torque/speed curves, and duty cycles into energy consumption
, thermal performance
, and system-level metrics for electrified drive trains. - Model and analyze electric machines & motor drives
, power electronics (inverters/converters,
IGBTs/MOSFETs
, junction temperature, thermal margins), and battery systems (SOC dynamics, charge/discharge impacts). - Evaluate range of electrical output and load calculations
; conduct thermal analysis of high‑power systems (hundreds of kW to MW). - Integrate results across motor–power electronics–battery subsystems and quantify tradeoffs in performance, efficiency, cost, and mass
. - Support machine control and system performance assessments using simulation.
- Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to obtain/validate inputs, review results, and inform program decisions.
- Use internal proprietary tools alongside commercial software.
- BS in Electrical Engineering
- 10+ years relevant experience. - Proven experience with electrified powertrain systems simulation and power conversion analysis.
- Thermal applications/analysis across electric machines, power electronics, and batteries.
- Battery and power electronics expertise (energy storage + conversion).
- Strong analytical skills and engineering judgment—able to interpret results, not just run models.
- Simulation tools expertise:
MATLAB/Simulink
, ANSYS (incl.
CFD
),
Sim Pro - Cross‑team collaboration and communication
- Detailed power conversion analysis
; thermal experience highly desirable
- ANSYS Maxwell (electromagnetics);
CFD/thermal (steady & transient) - Battery modeling and system‑level energy analysis
- Programming not required
, but MATLAB scripting/integration is a plus
