A leading premium automotive business and leading to move towards electric autonomous vehicles.WHAT TO EXPECT
The HV BEV Charging Validation Lead is responsible for system and charging validation at a vehicle level (perspective from in to out) both close to vehicle and very large and complex rigs. This role will need to give high visibility around charging experience for customers.
You will be responsible for testing and validation of the new Hardware, SW and systems concepts developed by your colleagues. In the role you'll use the latest hardware in the loop and test automation capability. Your goal will be to proof the goodness of our designs and products. To do so powerful test cases will be running in your facilities by doing so you will be responsible for designing and executing powertrain design validation plans (DVPs). All this while ensuring a direct link with vehicle, powertrain, systems, subsystems.
The HV BEV Charging Validation Lead ultimately reports to the Charging V+V Manager.
Key Responsibilities
In this role you will be working with systems and charging validation within the Powertrain team.
The HV Charging Power Electronics team is responsible for the delivery of Plug-In and Full Electric vehicles (PHEV's and BEV's) including hardware and ECU design as well as control strategies for modules such as DCDC converters and Off-Board/On-Board Chargers.
