Vehicles that are intuitive, liberating, and designed for the future of mobility.   We plan to lead in this new era of luxury electric by returning to the fundamentals of great design – where every decision we make is in service of the individual and environment. Because when you are no longer bound by convention, you are free to define your own experience.   Come work alongside some of the most accomplished minds in the industry. Beyond providing competitive salaries, we’re providing a community for innovators who want to make an immediate and significant impact. If you are driven to create a better, more sustainable future, then this is the right place for you.Overview:  We are seeking a highly skilled Staff Electrical Engineer with a focus on Battery Management Systems (BMS) for electric vehicles. The ideal candidate will demonstrate technical excellence, resilience, and the capacity to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment. This role requires end-to-end ownership of BMS hardware design, with a particular emphasis on functional safety and reliability.   Responsibilities: - Lead the design, architecture, and implementation of next-generation BMS hardware, encompassing all stages from feature proposal, specification development, part selection, hardware design, and rigorous validation. - Drive the electrical design and continuous improvement of BMS components to ensure high performance, efficiency, and safety in electric vehicles. - Collaborate on powertrain and vehicle-level integrations across prototype and production phases, ensuring seamless system operation. - Act as a primary point of contact for troubleshooting field issues related to BMS performance, applying advanced diagnostic techniques. - Partner closely with cross-functional teams—mechanical design, manufacturing, software engineering, and supply chain—to bring safe, reliable BMS products to mass production. - Work within a team to develop and enhance critical safety protocols for BMS, emphasizing compliance with automotive functional safety standards (ISO 26262).   Educational Requirements: - Bachelor’s degree or above in Electrical Engineering.   Qualifications: - Bachelor’s degree or above in Electrical Engineering. - 5+ years of hands-on experience in BMS or other safety-critical, high-reliability electronic products within the automotive industry. - Comprehensive knowledge of cell chemistry (such as Li-ion) and battery cell behavior under various operating conditions, with experience in implementing cell monitoring and protection mechanisms. - Expertise in functional safety standards and methodologies, including ISO 26262 and DFMEA, with proven experience in designing fail-safe and fail-operational systems. - Advanced understanding of electronics components and circuit design for BMS, with specific experience in mixed-signal circuit development for high-speed, high-precision applications. - Proficiency with schematic capture tools, Worst Case Circuit Analysis (WCCA), and PCB layout best practices for high-voltage applications, signal integrity, power integrity, noise immunity, and EMI mitigation. - Hands-on experience in designing and testing microcontrollers, operational amplifiers, AD/DA converters, SMPS, communication circuits, and other critical BMS circuits. - Familiarity with simulation tools (such as Simulink, LTspice, Simplis, etc.) for power electronic components, including transient analysis for SMPS and analog circuit simulations. - Experience with lab equipment (oscilloscopes, power analyzers, spectrum analyzer, high-voltage probes) and a track record of ensuring compliance with rigorous testing and validation standards.   Preferred Skills: - Working knowledge of BMS software integration, especially as it relates to functional safety (ASIL-rated systems). Experience in bare-metal C programming or model-based auto-code generation for board bring-up. - Experience with power electronics design, such as DC-DC and DC-AC converters, with a preference for candidates who have experience in developing Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). - Prior experience with advanced technologies for improving BMS performance. - Familiarity with cybersecurity standards as applied to BMS and power electronics systems. - Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to lead root-cause analysis and corrective action processes for system-wide issues.     At Lucid, we don’t just welcome diversity - we celebrate it!
