Job description

You’ll be working with the engineering and validation team.

This team runs on coffee with an infectious passion to build products that have never been built before. Our Flexible Energy Stack consists of the E-pack (battery pack) and E-pump (charging station) which together unlock 15-minute rapid charging.

Our philosophy:Break. Believe. Build

Break stuff. Break assumptions. Break the thumb rule.
Believe in the team. Believe in the process. Believe through failures.
Build fast. Build passionately. Build to simplify.

What you will do:

We’ve cracked rapid charging repeatably. The e^pack, e^pump and e^plug work together to deliver a 15 minute charge experience.

As test engineer you will execute the testing of battery or BMS or pump, or connector or integration test of these individual components as an ecosystem.
