Battery Management Systems Architect

At Electric Power Systems, Inc. (EPS) , our mission is to advance, connect, and protect our world with unmatched energy innovation . We design and deliver advanced energy storage systems that power the next generation of defense, flight, and transportation. From enabling electric aircraft to supporting defense systems and sustainable mobility, our team is helping redefine what's possible in energy and aerospace. As part of our growing engineering team in North Logan, Utah, we're looking for a Battery Management Systems (BMS) Architect to lead the design and implementation of the software architectures that power our cutting-edge batteries.

In this role, you'll serve as a senior technical authority responsible for the architecture, scalability, and certifiability of EPS's BMS software and controls. You'll define the design strategies, algorithms, and estimators that make our systems both intelligent and dependable. This is a role for a visionary engineer who understands how to transform complex technical requirements into robust, real-time embedded architectures that meet the demanding standards of aerospace and defense.

As the BMS Architect, you'll oversee the design, development, and integration of software systems that manage every aspect of energy storage performance. You'll define and refine system solutions based on user needs, integration constraints, and safety requirements, ensuring seamless communication across hardware, firmware, and control systems. You'll lead model-based design (MBD) efforts using Simulink, Stateflow, and Simscape Electrical / Battery, configuring models, solvers, and code generation pipelines that bring high-voltage battery systems to life. Your expertise will drive the implementation of algorithms for state estimation, power management, balancing, pre-charge logic, and fault detection, all while ensuring compliance with stringent certification standards such as DO-178C and DO-311A.

Your work will span every level of system design, from developing and validating detailed cell and pack models to implementing estimators for State of Charge and State of Health using techniques like Coulomb counting and Kalman filters. You'll take a hands-on role in developing and validating control logic through simulation, Monte Carlo analysis, parameter sweeps, and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing. Whether you're configuring Embedded Coder pipelines for MISRA-C compliance or managing integration with tools like dSPACE, Speedgoat, or NI platforms, you'll ensure our BMS software is not just functional but scalable, secure, and certifiable.

Beyond the technical architecture, you'll be responsible for defining modeling standards, enforcing code review processes, and establishing best practices that elevate the entire engineering team. You'll guide design documentation and validation toward FAA and other regulatory certifications, ensuring our systems meet the rigorous demands of flight. As a leader and mentor, you'll help develop junior engineers, fostering a culture of learning, technical excellence, and collaboration.

We're looking for someone with a strong background in electrical and computer engineering, computer science, or a related field. Typically, this means a bachelor's degree and at least ten years of progressive engineering experience, or a master's degree with five or more years in advanced system design. You should have deep expertise in C / C++ for real-time, safety-critical embedded systems, with hands-on experience developing for ARM Cortex-M architectures and peripheral drivers such as CAN, SPI, I2C, and Ethernet. A solid understanding of software unit testing, system introspection, and debugging tools is essential, along with strong proficiency in MATLAB / Simulink, Python, and data processing pipelines.

Ideal candidates will also bring experience developing safety-critical or certified BMS or embedded systems, familiarity with DO-178C, DO-254, and DO-330 standards, and experience using tools like Git, Bitbucket, JIRA, and Linux-based development environments. Prior work in aerospace or automotive battery systems and knowledge of FMU / FMI and CAN calibration concepts will make you stand out.

This position requires access to information subject to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). As such, candidates must meet the definition of a U.S. Person as defined by applicable law, unless a license or exception applies.

At EPS, we're united by a shared vision to engineer a safer, more connected, and more sustainable world through energy innovation. If you're ready to lead the architectural design of systems that will define the future of electric aviation, we invite you to join us and help shape what comes next.

SECURITY & COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENT :
