Battery system engineers are professionals that design, test and develop battery systems for various applications. They create efficient cost-effective energy storage solutions, working with a team of engineers and scientists. Some of the solutions are for electric vehicles, consumer electronics, grid storage and other applications. They are responsible for the overall performance of the battery system, which includes the battery cells, control and management electronics, thermal management and safety systems.

The techniques used to design batteries, characterise their properties and performance, including electrochemical analysis and physical measurements, as well as to devise the integration of various components, in order to meet specific requirements for different applications.
The electronic system that manages and monitors the performance of a battery.
The computer systems and components with a specialised and autonomous function within a larger system or machine such as embedded systems software architectures, embedded peripherals, design principles and development tools.
Discipline that applies principles of physics, engineering and materials science to design, analyse, manufacture and maintain mechanical systems.
The discipline of project management, the activities which comprise this area and the variables implied in it, such as time, resources, requirements, deadlines, and responding to unexpected events.
The vehicle electrical systems, including components such as the battery, starter, and alternator. The battery provides energy to the starter. The alternator provides the battery the energy it requires to power the vehicle.
The different battery types according to the representative chemical components used in the anode or the cathode such as zinc-carbon, nickel-metal hydride, lead-acid, or lithium-ion.
The techniques and principles of software development, such as analysis, algorithms, coding, testing and compiling of programming paradigms (e.g. object oriented programming, functional programming) and of programming languages.
The scientific and practical study that deals with the foundations of information and computation, namely algorithms, data structures, programming, and data architecture. It deals with the practicability, structure and mechanisation of the methodical procedures that manage the acquisition, processing, and access to information.
Devices or a set of devices that command and manage the performance and behaviour of other equipment and systems. This includes Industrial control systems (ICS) which are used for industrial production and manufacturing.
The field of engineering that deals with the study and application of electricity, electronics, and electromagnetism.
The engineering elements like functionality, replicability, and costs in relation to the design and how they are applied in the completion of engineering projects.
Different elements and phases of project management.
The study of the risks associated with engineered designs and systems, accident prevention as well as the safety benefits of reducing deaths and injuries. The discipline focuses on analysing and mitigating potential hazards in engineering processes.
Develop simplified descriptions, mainly mathematical descriptions of processes or systems, in order to assist calculations and predictions.
Conform with production requirements by reading the production schedule and adjusting temperature to the actual humidity, size and type of the products which will be dried.
Specify strategies for system integration, incorporating the time schedule, the processes required to combine components into subsystems and systems, the means on how components will interface as well as the risks associated with the integration.
Develop and generate new products and product ideas based on market research on trends and niches.
Identify possible improvements to operational and financial performance, in order to increase productivity, efficiency, quality, and streamline procedures.
Interpret and analyse data collected during testing in order to formulate conclusions, new insights or solutions.
Test processed workpieces or products for basic faults.
Identify operating problems, decide what to do about it and report accordingly.

Respond to and communicate with customers in the most efficient and appropriate manner to enable them to access the desired products or services, or any other help they may require.
Understand and use technical documentation in the overall technical process.
Write documents where the expected characteristics of a product or service are specified. Make sure all necessary properties of the product or service are covered. Balance the level of detail with the need for flexibility.
