Your learning journey to Battery Pack Engineer
Role overview
Battery Pack Engineers spec, design, and validate the cell-to-pack architecture that decides an EV's range, performance, and safety envelope. The role is core to OEM teams and to Tier-1 battery suppliers. Engineers with hardware + thermal + electrical depth command top-percentile salaries.
Required skills
- Cell chemistry selection (NMC, LFP, LCO trade-offs)
- Pack architecture (cell-to-pack vs modular)
- Thermal management (liquid cooling, phase change, air)
- Pack-level safety: fault propagation, isolation, vent paths
- Mechanical CAD + SolidWorks for enclosure design
- Validation: cycling, abuse, drop, thermal-shock tests
Tools + hardware you'll master
Every learner ships with the same kit + lab access engineers use in industry.
Hands-on projects you'll ship
Project
48V battery pack from cell selection to validation
Working 2.5 kWh pack with BMS integration
Project
Thermal CFD on a 22-cell module
Steady-state temp <55°C under 1C discharge
Project
Pack abuse simulation
ANSYS run + tabulated fault propagation
