Job description

About us

Dyson is a global technology enterprise focused on redefining industries through innovation and cutting-edge technology. As part of our Electrical Power Systems team, we develop advanced Battery Management Systems (BMS) for Dyson’s battery-operated consumer electronics products, ensuring high reliability, safety, and performance. If you’re passionate about firmware, embedded systems, and driving new technologies, this role offers you the opportunity to leave a lasting impact on Dyson’s future innovations.

About the role

As a Battery Management Software Safety Architect, you will lead the design, development, validation, and implementation of BMS firmware and software for Dyson’s consumer electronics products. Collaborating closely with cross-functional teams—including mechanical, hardware, software, quality, and test professionals—you’ll contribute across the full product lifecycle, spanning EVT (Engineering Validation Test), DVT (Design Validation Test), and PVT (Production Validation Test) phases. You will implement innovative solutions and technologies while driving technology roadmaps that shape future consumer electronics at Dyson. This role demands hands-on technical expertise in BMS firmware development, safety-critical software, and cross-functional collaboration across borders.

About you

• BEng, MSc, or PhD in Electrical, Electronics, Embedded Systems Engineering, or related discipline. Strong academic background focused on embedded firmware design, battery systems, and technical problem-solving.
• Minimum 8+ years of professional experience in BMS firmware/software development, particularly in consumer electronics, automotive, or aerospace industries.
• Proven expertise in embedded systems programming for battery systems using microcontrollers (TI TMS570, LTC6813, ARM Cortex, STM32 series).
• Hands-on experience in cell testing, battery degradation analysis, state estimations, and robust system design for lithium-ion technologies.
• In-depth knowledge of embedded protocols (SPI, CAN, UART, ADC), battery communication interfaces, and real-time operating systems (e.g., FreeRTOS, Micrium uC/OS).
• Skilled in functional safety standards (ISO 26262), fault management in BMS firmware development, and compliance standards (IEC 62133, UL 1642).
• Familiarity with BMS hardware platforms and tools such as TI BQ Studio, MATLAB, and Simulink.
• Ability to develop bootloaders, memory management, and scalable modular software components.
• Programming proficiency: Embedded C, Python, Ruby, Make.
• Demonstrated track record in subsystem abstraction, platforming, and codebase maintenance for global product lines.
• Extensive experience delivering complex projects across multi-disciplinary, international teams.
• Skilled in stakeholder engagement across engineering, manufacturing, and suppliers, consistently collaborating with cross-functional groups worldwide.
