You will select the vehicle battery. You will design circuitry for battery management, charging, power distribution, and protection. You will carry those designs through qualification against the vehicle’s power requirements. The battery and board must supply the vehicle’s flight controls, sensors, and other hardware throughout the mission.<br><br>You will be the power system’s technical expert across the vehicle. You will work with systems engineers who manage the vehicle’s size, weight, and power configuration. You will supply power analysis for the vehicle budget. With each hardware team, you will define the power interface for its components. Your analysis will show how a change to one component affects power available to the rest of the vehicle. Each team will be able to use your decisions in its own design work.<br><br>You will also work with logistics colleagues to understand supplier options for batteries and power components. This is a senior individual contributor role with no direct reports. The position is based in Washington, DC, with a hybrid work arrangement.</span></p> </div> <h2><strong>The day-to-day</strong></h2> <ul> <li>Select a vehicle battery that fits power needs, weight limits, and integration constraints.</li> <li>Design battery management and charging circuitry for the vehicle power system.</li> <li>Design the power distribution board, including distribution and protection circuits.</li> <li>Define each component’s power interface with the hardware team that owns it.</li> <li>Provide power analysis to systems engineers managing the vehicle budget and its size, weight, and power configuration.</li> <li>Plan and carry out bench and ground tests to qualify battery and power distribution hardware under expected operating conditions.</li> <li>Design for electromagnetic interference and electromagnetic compatibility (EMI/EMC), then support related testing.</li> <li>Support field operations when power-system hardware needs integration or troubleshooting.</li> <li>Assess the technical fit of supplier options with logistics colleagues.</li> <li>Work with mechanical and manufacturing engineers to integrate the battery and distribution board into the vehicle.</li> </ul> <h2 id="You’ll-do-great-if-you….3" data-renderer-start-pos="15247"><strong>You should apply if you</strong></h2> <ul> <li>Have at least ten years of experience designing power electronics or electrical hardware.</li> <li>Have experience with battery selection and battery management design for integrated hardware.</li> <li>Have designed charging and power distribution circuitry, including protection functions.</li> <li>Have taken a power distribution board from design through hardware test.</li> <li>Can analyze electrical loads and component interfaces to support a vehicle power budget.</li> <li>Have qualified battery or power distribution hardware against vehicle requirements.</li> <li>Can work with hardware teams and systems engineers to make clear technical decisions across interfaces.</li> <li>Have hands-on soldering experience with electronic components or boards.</li> <li>Have experience with EMI/EMC testing and designs that protect circuits from interference.</li> <li>Are a U.S. citizen and able to obtain and maintain a Secret security clearance.</li> </ul> <p><span data-contrast="auto">Note: We encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet all the listed qualifications; ability and impact cannot be summarized in a few bullet points.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335557856":16777215,"335559685":0,"335559738":0,"335559739":0}"> </span></p> <h2><strong>Nice to Have</strong></h2> <ul> <li>Have fifteen or more years of relevant power electronics experience.</li> <li>Have worked on power systems for uncrewed aircraft or loitering munitions.</li> <li>Have evaluated battery or power-component options with a logistics or supply team.</li> <li>Have hands-on circuit design experience with components such as resistors, capacitors, diodes, transistors, and integrated circuits.</li> </ul> <h2><strong><span data-contrast="auto">Join Helsing and work with world-leading experts in their fields</span><span data-ccp-props="{"> </span></strong></h2> <ul> <li> <p><span data-contrast="auto">Helsing’s work is important.
