Eligibility Criteria

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related discipline.
  • Minimum three years of relevant experience in battery modules, battery packs, energy storage systems, power electronics, or electromechanical product development.
  • Strong fundamentals in structural design, engineering mechanics, strength of materials, mechanical joints, material selection, tolerances, heat transfer, and manufacturing processes.
  • Demonstrated experience developing mechanical products from concept through production release.
  • Strong capability in 3D modelling, assembly design, mechanical packaging, and component integration.
  • Hands-on experience with structural, thermal, or thermo-mechanical simulation.
  • Working knowledge of battery module architecture, cooling systems, insulation, electrical isolation, clearance and creepage, and electromechanical integration.
  • Familiarity with GD&T, tolerance analysis, DFM, DFA, DFMEA, DVP&R, PPAP, PLM, and engineering change processes.
  • Experience with cooling manifold design, coolant routing, sealing interfaces, or HV/LV harness design is preferred.
  • Strong technical problem-solving, engineering judgment, documentation, collaboration, and communication skills.

Job Description

  • Collaborate with Caterpillar machine and application teams to finalize customer requirements, operating conditions, mechanical interfaces, packaging constraints, and validation requirements.
  • Develop battery module architecture, packaging, and detailed mechanical designs, including cell-retention and compression systems, structural components, mounting features, busbar supports, insulation components, cold plates, and overall module cooling solutions.
  • Integrate Cell Monitoring Units (CMUs), sensing components, electrical interconnects, busbars, and high-voltage and low-voltage harness interfaces into the module mechanical architecture.
  • Account for cell dimensional variation, swelling, compression, thermal expansion, electrical clearance and creepage, assembly requirements, and serviceability throughout the design.
  • Develop production-ready 3D models, assemblies, BOMs, material specifications, and mechanical interface requirements.
  • Apply GD&T and perform tolerance stack-up and packaging analyses.
  • Select materials, mechanical joints, insulation systems, thermal-interface materials, sealing solutions, and manufacturing processes.
  • Perform structural, thermal, and thermo-mechanical simulations.
  • Correlate simulation results with physical test data.
  • Lead Design of Experiments (DoE).
  • Support DFM, DFA, DFMEA, DVP&R and validation activities.
