1. Overview
A Systems Engineer are some of our most highly valued and versatile team members. As part of a multi-disciplinary team, you will work alongside our elite engineers to build world-class battery systems. They are primarily responsible for envisioning how the product will be taken from concept to production, defining the system architecture, identifying requirements, and leading the technical team to successful product launch. This person should know enough about mechanical, electrical, and software engineering to speak intelligently about all of them and understand their interaction. Additionally, a Systems Engineer will be responsible for overall system design and integrity, will lead design reviews, and will answer to the highest levels of the organization with respect to the technical aspects of a product. This is the ideal role for an exceedingly sharp engineer who is insatiably curious about all aspects of engineering and wishes they could be involved in everything!
2. Key Roles & Responsibilities
