• Staff Engineer Battery Integration

  • Sep 2017 - Feb 2020

  • Design and develop high voltage batteries for the automotive industry ranging from 80 to 120 kWh with lithium ion chemistry. • Responsible for design and development of cooling coldplates, flexcircuits, and battery thermal systems using Catia V6. I work on early concepts and prototypes to develop and bring the latest battery technology to sample B through testing & validation of the R&D concepts. • Create detailed drawings of parts and assemblies which include BOM, dimensions, GD&T and standard notes per ASME Y14.5-2009. • Perform stress analysis using Ansys 2019 R2 to qualify designs for structural integrity of battery enclosures as well as brackets. In addition, I perform preliminary analysis of the battery thermal system for flow and thermal performance using Ansys 2019 Discovery Live/Aim. • Carry out design for manufacturing (DFM) studies as well as part/assembly cost analysis for low to high volume production. I’m comfortable with machining, forming, welding, sheet metal, and typical finish process. • Guide suppliers during product development to achieve the targeted performance, cost, and timing. • Help carry out some of the battery validation testing such as cell to cell propagation and balancing the flow of the thermal system. • Release and manage parts and assemblies into our PLM software and perform revision control for the parts I own.
