We train our team to engage with each other by modulating between their intellect (iQ) and emotional intelligence (eQ) applying Facts, Finesse, and Force when they communicate. The principles and drills of the CANOO Way have been fundamental to our success, our ability to grow, continuously improve, innovate and are at the core of our day-to-day operations.
Job Purpose
Canoo is looking for a Senior Battery Controls developer with solid experience in controls and calibration of battery systems and related topics, ideally with some automotive experience. In this position, you will be responsible for developing battery state estimation and control algorithms for next-generation battery management systems as part of a well-rounded team at an innovative, fast-paced automotive company. This position will work cross-functionally and interact with several teams, including the battery cell, thermal, design, software, hardware, and vehicle controls teams.
Responsibilities (80s of the Position)
  • Design, develop, and validate various BMS control and state estimation algorithms including
  • SOC, SOH, SOT, SOE, Power Prediction, and Fast Charge Controls.
  • Develop battery models using electrical and physics-based modeling approaches.
  • Develop high-quality firmware for battery management systems.
  • Lead troubleshooting and root cause analysis efforts to identify and resolve algorithm-related issues and implement corrective actions to improve system performance and reliability.
  • Specify and develop the requirements related to the BMS controller.
  • Document the algorithm development and testing results, and integrate the documentation withinthe relevant tools.
  • Provide guidance on advanced technical topics related to battery controls.
  • Develop and/or improve validation plans for the evaluation of battery controls software.
