Role overview

BMS Engineers design the firmware and hardware that monitors, balances, and protects lithium-ion packs in real time. The role sits at the intersection of embedded C, power electronics, and safety engineering. Niche skill, premium pay.

Required skills

  • Embedded C + RTOS (FreeRTOS)
  • Battery cell modeling (Coulomb counting, Kalman filter SoC)
  • Active + passive cell balancing
  • CAN / LIN / Modbus protocols
  • ISO 26262 functional-safety basics
  • Hardware schematic review

Tools + hardware you'll master

Every learner ships with the same kit + lab access engineers use in industry.
