EMC Expert

Expertize the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) strategy and execution for electric vehicle powertrain systems, including battery systems (HVS), e-Drive motor (eAM), power electronics (Inverter/OBC). Ensure compliance with global EMC standards while optimizing system performance and reliability throughout the product lifecycle.
Major Responsibilities:
● Lead electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) design, validation, and compliance for high-voltage electric vehicle powertrain systems, including battery systems (HVS), e-Drive motor (eAM), power electronics (Inverter/OBC), and related control modules.
● Develop and execute EMC test plans aligned with international standards (e.g., CISPR 25) and BMW specific requirements, covering component-level validation and vehicle-level integration.
● Perform root-cause analysis and mitigation of EMC-related failures in HV/LV systems, collaborating with cross-functional teams (hardware, software, mechanical) and Tier 1 suppliers to implement design optimizations.
● Manage EMC project timelines, risk assessments, and technical escalations, ensuring compliance with product launch milestones and regulatory certifications.
● Self-reliant preparation and documentation of reports incl. evaluations and conclusions for components development and other functions counterparts.
● Initiate and carry out process and pro
● duct improvements, including gained insights (“Lessons Learned”).
Qualifications:
● Education / Degree: Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electromagnetics, or related field; PhD preferred for advanced simulation roles.
