Key Responsibilities
- Help build and maintain simple Python scripts and notebooks for cell data processing and analysis.
- Use PyTorch to set up, train, and evaluate straightforward neural network models under guidance from senior engineers.
- Assist with organizing test and simulation datasets and generating clear plots and summaries for the engineering team.
- Other duties as assigned
- Upper-level student in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Computer Science, Data Science, or a similar field.
- Completed at least one 300/3000 level (or higher) Deep Learning, Machine Learning, or Neural Networks course, with some hands on PyTorch experience.
- Solid Python skills and interest in batteries, electrochemistry, or energy storage applications.
- Good communication skills and a collaborative, learning oriented mindset.
- Familiarity with version control systems (e.g., GitHub) for version control and collaborative design workflows.
- Hands-on experience, preferably for two years or more, in Formula SAE, Baja SAE, Formula Student, or a similar competitive student engineering program.
- Strong, hands-on engineering mindset with a bias toward building, testing, and iterating rather than only modeling on paper.
- Curiosity and enthusiasm for learning at the intersection of electrochemistry, data science, and software.
- Able to work independently on well-scoped tasks while asking timely questions when blocked.
- Comfortable collaborating with multidisciplinary teammates and incorporating feedback into your work.
- Organized, detail oriented, and committed to clear documentation and high-quality results.
