About the role

  • The Battery R&D team in Silicon Valley is focused on combining battery engineering, large-scale data analytics, and artificial intelligence to enable next-generation battery intelligence.
  • This role serves as a key bridge between battery engineering, data science, and AI development, translating physical battery system behavior into intelligent decision-making frameworks.
  • The ideal candidate possesses strong Battery Management System knowledge and can translate complex battery behavior into data-driven, AI-enabled solutions.

Responsibilities

  • Design AI systems capable of making autonomous battery-related decisions.
  • Support the development of adaptive and self-optimizing battery management strategies.
  • Develop and utilize Python-based data analysis workflows.
  • Support predictive modeling and simulation environments.
  • Collaborate closely with BMS, data science, and AI teams.

Requirements

  • Bachelors Degree
  • Bachelor's degree and 5-10 years of relevant experience
  • Master's degree and 2-5 years of relevant experience
  • Ph.D. and 0-2 years of relevant experience.
  • Degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
  • Strong understanding of battery behavior, including SOC, SOH, thermal characteristics, and operating constraints.
  • Solid knowledge of Battery Management Systems (BMS), including estimation methods, control logic, and safety concepts.
  • Proficiency with Python and data analysis tools such as NumPy, Pandas, and related libraries.
  • Experience working with large-scale datasets, including vehicle, telematics, IoT, or similar data sources.
  • Ability to abstract physical systems into computational and analytical frameworks.

Compensation

  • $134,042.00 - $230,590.00
  • (Minimum to Maximum of Salary Range noted here).
  • This compensation range represents the minimum and maximum base salary rates at Nissan for jobs assigned to this particular grade level.
  • Rather, an employee's actual base salary generally may fall somewhere in between and reflect the employee's unique skills, work experience, education, work location, and market norms.
  • Additionally, pay may be based on comparisons to the base salary rates of other employees with similar backgrounds working in comparable roles.

Benefits

  • Define battery system states, including State of Charge (SOC), State of Health (SOH), thermal conditions, and system constraints.

Visa & Work Authorization

  • Candidates for this position must be legally authorized to work in the United States and will be required to provide proof of employment eligibility at the time of hire; Nissan uses E-Verify to validate employment eligibility.
