What is the difference between Urgently Hiring Failure Analysis Engineer vs Failure Analysis Technician?

AspectUrgently Hiring Failure Analysis EngineerFailure Analysis Technician
CredentialsBachelor's degree in engineering or related field; certifications preferredAssociate's degree or technical diploma; relevant certifications
Work EnvironmentDesign labs, manufacturing facilities, cross-disciplinary teamsLaboratories, testing stations, manufacturing floors
Industry UsageUsed in industries like electronics, aerospace, automotive for complex failure analysisCommonly employed in similar industries for routine failure investigations

The Urgently Hiring Failure Analysis Engineer typically requires a higher level of education and handles complex failure investigations, often in a fast-paced environment. The Failure Analysis Technician supports these efforts with technical testing and data collection. Both roles are essential in quality assurance and product reliability, but the engineer's role is more analytical and design-focused.

Job description

JOB SUMMARY

This role conducts battery failure investigations to identify root causes using analytical testing and laboratory experiments. The position supports testing, operates lab equipment, and collaborates with cross-functional teams to drive corrective actions. Responsibilities also include technical reporting and maintaining a safe, well-managed lab environment.


ESSENTIAL ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

Failure Analysis Investigations:

  • Lead investigations into battery failures, including cell ruptures, thermal runaway events, capacity fade, and other performance issues, using a combination of analytical techniques and testing methodologies.
  • Conduct thorough examinations of failed battery cells/modules/packs, including visual inspections, non-destructive testing (NDT), and materials analysis, to identify failure modes and mechanisms

Root Cause Identification:

  • Analyze data from failure investigations, including voltage/current profiles, temperature measurements, and environmental conditions, to determine the root causes of battery failures.
  • Develop hypotheses and perform root cause analyses to identify contributing factors such as manufacturing defects, design flaws, material degradation, or operational issues.

Testing and Validation:

  • Design and execute experiments and tests to validate hypotheses and simulate failure conditions, including accelerated aging tests, thermal cycling tests, and abuse testing (e.g., overcharge, over-discharge).
  • Collaborate with internal and external partners, including research institutions and testing laboratories, to conduct specialized tests and analyses as needed.

Laboratory Management:

  • Manage laboratory equipment effectively to maintain an environment conducive to accurate analysis and evaluation
  • Procure laboratory consumables required for battery analysis and manage the disposal of batteries upon completion of testing.

Failure Mode Documentation and Reporting:

  • Document findings from failure analyses, including detailed descriptions of failure modes, root causes, and contributing factors, in comprehensive technical reports.
  • Communicate results and recommendations to cross-functional teams, including engineering, quality assurance, and product development, to drive corrective actions and improvements.


REQUIREMENTS

MINIMUM EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENTS

- Understanding of problem-solving and detail-oriented analytical skills, with the ability to think critically and troubleshoot complex issues.

- Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced, dynamic environment, managing multiple projects concurrently and prioritizing tasks effectively.

- Ability to perform routine physical activities, including lifting, carrying and moving materials.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENTS

- Experience in battery failure analysis, reliability engineering, or a related field, with a focus on lithium-ion batteries or similar energy storage systems.

- Expertise in battery technologies and associated systems.

- Methodological knowledge on how to conduct Root Cause Analysis (practical experience is a plus)

- Experience in operating a variety of analytical equipment, such as CT, SEM/EDX, and so on.

- Experience in multicultural working environment.

- Communication and presentation skills, with the ability to convey technical concepts and findings to both technical and non-technical audiences.
