Full Job Description
Achieve the functional and dysfunctional design of innovative batteries to ensure the desired performance of the battery pack with a minimum safety with respect to an agreed planning with a cross functional synthesis with several skilled people.

  • Assess the disruptive technologies in cell electrochemistry for automotive application from technical performance points of view.


  • Lead relationships with different external partners (academics, startups, cell manufacturers, material providers).


  • Lead relationships and human resources coordination with different advanced and core teams with internal facilities.


  • Lead and extend partnerships and internal facilities upgrade plan.


  • Build and disseminate the mid and long terms roadmaps for cell electrochemistry technologies and designs.


ISSUES:

  • To master and disseminate the process of functional and dysfunctional design of batteries by seeking unprecedented performance in terms of horsepower and energy


  • To lead a project including several teams and skills to pass TRL and milestones according to the project planning.


  • To capitalize and disseminate methods and models implemented within the PDT communities


  • To summarize the balance sheets at the project level of performance and constraints of the addressed battery packs


  • To evaluate the thermo-electric performance of a battery pack (horsepower, energy addressable under thermal environment)


  • To evaluate battery pack cost


  • To evaluate battery pack performance in stationary environment


  • To evaluate battery pack Life Cycle Analysis (LCA)


POSITION ENVIRONMENT:

  • To exchange and validate its results with technical teams, expertise network and project stakeholders


  • To capitalize tools, models and methods with teams partners


RESULTS TO BE PRODUCED:
