We are seeking a highly motivated and talented PhD researcher to join our team in the field of electrical engineering. The successful candidate will work on developing a connected smart battery management system (BMS) with cloud-based Artificial Intelligent (AI) services and enhanced hardware capabilities for increased battery lifetime and reliability.
The research topic is connected to the Horizon Europe Project EcoMobility (Intelligent, Safe and secure connected Electrical Mobility solutions). The aim of the project is to support European industry and cities in transition from isolate and static transportation means towards a service centric, connected mobility ecosystem by sharing data and services. The project will enable and simplify cooperative development, deployment, operation and life cycle management of connected adaptive mobility solutions.
Your responsibilities will be focusing on the battery management system:
- Design, develop and test a model-based and AI-based BMS for state of estimation, charging, balancing and anomaly fault detection.
- Collaborate with other researchers and engineers to optimize the battery management system and increase battery lifetime.
- Write technical reports, research papers and present research findings at conferences and project meetings.
