Battery Systems Engineer

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Battery Systems Engineer to join a pioneering startup developing next‑generation battery technology. This is a hands‑on role for someone who loves building, testing and iterating quickly. You'll take ownership of battery pack design from concept through to flight, working collaboratively within a fast‑moving, inventive engineering team.

 

The Battery Systems Engineer will:

• Design and develop lightweight, high‑performance battery packs for drone applications.
• Create and implement effective thermal management solutions for performance and safety.
• Assemble prototype packs in-house and support development toward manufacturable designs.
• Design and integrate power electronics and BMS hardware within the overall system architecture.
• Establish and run test programmes for performance, cycle life, thermal behaviour and safety validation.

 

The Battery Systems Engineer will have:

• A hands‑on, practical approach with enthusiasm for building, testing and improving hardware.
• A degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline.
• 3+ years' experience working on battery systems, including pack design and power electronics.
• Strong understanding of BMS architecture, protection strategies and charge/discharge behaviour.
• Experience with PCB design tools (Altium, KiCAD or similar).

 

If you enjoy end‑to‑end ownership, thrive in a collaborative startup environment and want to help develop cutting‑edge battery systems for next‑generation flight, this role offers the chance to make a real impact. Apply online and we will be in touch!
