Project history
Lead electrical engineer on HV battery systems up to 1000 V and 1-2 MW peak power, from customer requirements through design, manufacturing support, commissioning and final validation. Defines electrical architecture and configuration, selects and characterises cells, designs complete electrical systems including BMS interfaces, contactors, precharge, HVIL, isolation monitoring and protection. Produces schematics, BOMs, wiring documentation and assembly manuals; commissions finished systems and runs end-of-line safety and functional tests.
Defined the complete architecture of a configurable distributed HV BMS (100-1200 V, up to 380 cells in series, 16 cells per cell module, galvanically isolated redundant IsoCAN backbone). Designed the complete hardware of 4 of the 5 system modules from component selection and schematics through PCB layout and prototypes. Wrote embedded software for hardware bring-up and validation. Designed electronics for high-power-density 600/800 V motor-controller applications.
Developed a GPIO test platform that drives and reads the interfaces of devices under test, enabling automated firmware unit tests on real hardware (hardware-in-the-loop). Designed supporting test PCBs for the newly established hardware team. Carried out in parallel with Volteek.
