Description
At BOLD, we design and build the next generation of high-performance battery systems for the world’s most demanding industries — from Formula 1 and hypercars to aerospace, marine and defense. Our mission: to deliver energy systems where every millisecond and every degree matter.
As a Test Engineer, you will play a key role in validating the performance, safety and reliability of our high-voltage battery systems. You’ll design and execute advanced test plans, analyse data, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to turn engineering concepts into proven, high-performing energy solutions.
If you’re passionate about testing, validation and pushing energy systems to their limits, this is your chance to make a real impact on the future of electrification through rigorous engineering and innovation.
What You’ll Do
- Plan, execute and analyse validation tests to ensure our high-voltage battery systems meet the highest standards of performance, safety and reliability.
- Develop and maintain Design Verification Plans (DVPs), linking system requirements to test activities and ensuring complete coverage throughout the validation process.
- Set up and operate test benches and measurement systems — including battery cyclers, climatic chambers, vibration and shock rigs, EMC and abuse test setups.
- Use tools like CANalyzer, CANoe, PCAN Explorer, Python, Concerto or vSignalyzer to collect, process and interpret test data.
- Collaborate with design, systems, hardware and software engineers to identify issues, propose solutions and verify design improvements.
- Apply and adapt testing standards and safety regulations from automotive, motorsport, aerospace and defense industries.
- Contribute to continuous improvement by refining test methodologies, introducing automation or data management tools, and supporting the development of new test infrastructure.
- Act as a technical reference within the Testing team, guiding and supporting junior engineers in developing their testing skills and ensuring consistent, high-quality validation practices.
