Electromechanical Engineer - EV Battery

Electro-Mechanical Engineer - EV Battery

Are you looking to work for a company that provides an innovative work environment, and your voice is heard? We are looking for an electro-mechanical engineer to design mechanical structural elements related to EV battery. Electro-Mechanical Engineers with busbar system experience with expertise in designing, testing, and integrating complex electromechanical systems. This role involves collaboration with multidisciplinary teams to create innovative and reliable solutions for electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles (primary), power electronics, industrial applications and data centers.

Who we are:

LER TechForce is an industry leader in embedded controls, software, functional safety, and engineering talent. For over 20 years LER has been working with customers across North America to meet their engineering resource challenges.

What you will be doing:

• Review Designs: Review design of busbar systems and related electromechanical components and make design changes.
• Modeling and Simulation: Conduct mechanical, thermal, and electrical simulations (e.g., using ANSYS) to validate designs, analyze performance, and ensure optimal heat dissipation and current-carrying capacity.
• Prototyping and Testing: Build and validate prototype samples, develop test plans, and perform thorough design verification to meet performance and safety specifications.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with electrical, mechanical, and manufacturing engineers.
• Documentation and Analysis: Create detailed technical documentation, including 3D models (Creo), and test reports. Conduct failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) and tolerance analysis.
• Supplier Engagement: Partner with suppliers to identify and qualify new materials and technologies and meet cost and quality objectives.
• Continuous Improvement: Manage engineering change notifications (ECN) and continuously apply best practices like Design for Manufacturing (DFM) to optimize products. Identify and implement improvements in design, reliability, and efficiency.
• Manufacturing: Support manufacturing, installation, and commissioning.
• Safety and Environmental: Ensure compliance with safety, regulatory, and environmental standards.
  
  

The ideal candidate will be knowledgeable in the following areas:

• Proficiency with CAD/EDA tools (e.g., Altium Designer, CREO) and simulation software.
• Knowledge of industry standards, safety regulations, and quality control processes.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
• Knowledge of EMC/EMI design considerations.
• Experience in product lifecycle management and manufacturing support.
  
  

What you'll get:

• Full benefits: medical, dental, vision
• 401K with a match and immediate vesting
• Short-term & Long-term disability, life insurance and other optional benefits
• Employee Assistance Program
• Employee Discounts
• Ongoing professional development opportunities including Technical Training and Leadership Development
• The opportunity to work on industry leading projects
  
  

What You Need To Be Successful

• College, university, or equivalent Bachelor's degree in Engineering or other relevant technical disciplines.
• Minimum of 3 years of relevant electromechanical design with knowledge of electrical components (battery, power electronics, busbar, sensors, ECUs, harnessing, etc.)
• Proficiency in Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T) and tolerance analysis.
• Demonstrated experience with simulation software (e.g., ANSYS) for thermal, mechanical, and electromagnetic analysis.
• Strong understanding of electrical and mechanical engineering principles and relevant manufacturing processes (stamping, molding, assembly).
• Good communicator - written and verbal
• An effective problem solver who is comfortable using analytical tools.
• Eager to learn; ask questions
• Self-motivated
• Self-manage and communicate what they are working on and issues discovered
