Apple Battery Thermal Engineer 
United States, California, Cupertino 
266819413

29.06.2024
Description
As a member of the Battery Product Design FEA team, you will be responsible for Thermal FEA modeling for all products. You will be fully integrated with the Product Design team from the earliest stages, analyzing and informing the design of groundbreaking products. You will also work with multi-functional teams within Apple to provide design guidance in terms of thermal impact of the product features. • Develop of state of art Thermal as well as multi-physics finite element (FE) models of cell, pack, and BMS sub-systems. • Provide deign and trade-off guidance to the PD teams through early-stage simulations, particularly in cases such as fast charging and high power functions.• Generate models/capability to convert power map into thermal outputs. • Perform advanced ThermalCAE simulations to evaluate and enhance understanding of the various boundary conditions at the cell, pack, BMS sub-systems around battery packs well as in system.• Supporting design progression and evolution with multi-disciplinary engineering teams based on your analyses.• Work with design teams and multi-functional teams, to understand CAE analysis requirements and clearly identify the related goals, scope and functionality limitations. • Use best in class tools and solvers to generate the necessary simulation models and results. • Work with test and reliability labs, to develop physical test methods, to gather necessary data for results validation. • Work with system teams, to collaborate on developing detailed sub-models to be used in assembly level simulations.• Develop optimized workflows and/or reusable templates for regularly required thermal FEA simulations.• Develop and implement standard methodologies. • Work with CAE vendors to drive the functionality improvements to better serve the CAE needs of the group. • Explore new analysis types and solutions, including topological optimization
Minimum Qualifications
