• 4+ years of BMS or embedded battery-control experience.
• Experience with SOC/SOH estimates and allowable-power.
• Experience with CAN interfaces and testing protection behavior.
• Ability to document decisions and coordinate with pack/vehicle teams.
• Knowledge of test automation and data analysis is a plus.

Mansioni

• Define monitoring, estimation and protection requirements from cell data and pack operating limits.
• Develop SOC, SOH and allowable-power calculations.
• Specify sensing, balancing, contactor and communications behavior with engineers.
• Implement diagnostic and fault-response logic with timing and recovery conditions.
• Build test cases using recorded data, emulation and HIL tools.
• Maintain software, calibration and verification records across releases.

Descrizione del lavoro

Build the intelligence that makes battery condition visible and useful. Your monitoring and control work will help ASKA connect stored energy, system limits, and vehicle operation through a well-integrated battery management system.

Develop the battery monitoring and control functions that support ASKA's energy-management system. You will connect cell behavior, sensing hardware and embedded software to trustworthy state estimates and protection logic, collaborating with pack and vehicle teams through simulation, bench and integrated tests.

Employment Full-time proposed

Location & work arrangement Eagle Field · Palo Alto area / remote for analysis and design to be defined; hands-on integration and test visits to be discussed; availability for occasional testing at Eagle Field Airport required, with advance coordination

Battery monitoring, state estimation, balancing and BMS protection/control implementation.

Key working interfaces

The Battery lead owns pack architecture and limits. Mechanical, thermal and BMS engineers own their component designs; Battery Test owns test execution and evidence against agreed requirements.

What you’ll do

• Define monitoring, estimation and protection requirements from cell data and pack operating limits.
• Develop or integrate state-of-charge, state-of-health and allowable-power calculations.
• Specify sensing, balancing, contactor and communications behavior with electronics and distribution engineers.
• Implement diagnostic and fault-response logic with defined timing and recovery conditions.
• Build representative test cases using recorded data, emulation and hardware-in-the-loop tools.
• Investigate pack anomalies and maintain software, calibration and verification records across releases.
• Establish and continually improve BMS evaluations using representative data, measurable acceptance criteria and automated regression tests; track coverage and use software or pack anomalies to improve the test suite.

Required qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, controls, computer engineering or a related discipline, or equivalent practical expertise demonstrated through relevant work.
• 4+ years developing BMS functions or embedded battery-control systems.
• Experience developing BMS functions, with an understanding of cell behavior, sensing, balancing and pack operating limits.
• Ability to develop or validate state-of-charge, state-of-health and allowable-power estimates and their response to uncertain measurements.
• Experience integrating embedded diagnostics and CAN interfaces and testing contactor, protection and recovery behavior using bench or HIL tools.
• Ability to explain technical decisions, keep accurate records and work effectively with the teams responsible for adjacent systems.

Preferred qualifications

Experience with cell-model identification, embedded BMS implementation and battery aging datasets. Familiarity with aerospace or automotive software assurance is valuable.

AI tools and automation: Strongly preferred where programming is a substantial part of the role: hands-on use of Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot or equivalent tools for development, debugging, test automation, code review or analysis scripts. Include relevant Python, MATLAB or other scripting experience. Provide a specific example, your contribution, any measured time saved or quality improvement, and how you verified the result. Equivalent tools are welcome.

We welcome transferable experience from related industries. You do not need to meet every preferred qualification. Tell us what you have delivered and how your skills apply to this role.

Location & working arrangements

Eagle Field Airport · 11100 W Eagle Ave, Firebaugh, CA 93622

Eagle Field Airport is our primary development and manufacturing location. Palo Alto area or remote arrangements may be considered for engineering work that does not require hands-on access. All current openings require availability to participate in development and flight-testing activities at Eagle Field Airport from time to time, with advance coordination. Flight-test roles require on-site availability for preparation and campaigns. Scheduling and travel arrangements will be discussed for each role.
