Making sure you fit the guidelines as an applicant for this role is essential, please read the below carefully.
Most battery engineering roles involve optimising an existing product.
This role is about creating the next one.
We’re supporting a pioneering company developing some of the most advanced UAV platforms operating anywhere in the world today.
As part of a growing Concept Development team, you’ll take ownership of battery systems from initial requirements through to flight-ready hardware.
Unlike many organisations where battery engineers sit in a narrow specialist function, here you’ll work closely with propulsion, avionics, mechanical and flight test teams, seeing your designs progress rapidly from concept to airborne reality.
What you’ll be doing:
- Designing and integrating advanced battery pack solutions from concept through to production
- Developing battery architectures using pouch cell technologies
- Creating and executing test and validation programmes
- Building and evaluating prototype battery systems
- Working on thermal management, packaging and high-voltage integration challenges
- Collaborating closely with suppliers and multidisciplinary engineering teams
- Supporting the development of next-generation energy solutions for autonomous aircraft
We’re interested in engineers who bring:
- Strong battery pack design and cell integration experience
- Hands-on experience with pouch cells
- Knowledge of thermal management and battery safety principles
- Experience with CAD tools such as SolidWorks
- Understanding of high-voltage systems and battery manufacturing processes
- A practical mindset with a passion for building, testing and improving products
Why join?
- Work on technology where battery performance is mission critical
- See your designs move rapidly from concept to flight testing
- Join a highly engineering-led environment with significant autonomy
- Work alongside experts across avionics, propulsion and autonomy
- 9-day fortnight with a long weekend every other week
- Healthcare, bonus scheme, pension and share incentive plan
- Salary is negotiable and will reflect experience and capability
