Validation Engineer/ Senior Validation Engineer

Job Description

Dukosi is a leading-edge technology company developing revolutionary technologies that dramatically improve the performance, safety, and efficiency of battery systems, and enable a more sustainable battery value chain. Our unique cell monitoring platform based on chip-on-cell technology and proprietary contactless communication protocol is transforming battery systems for electric vehicles (EV), industrial transportation and stationary energy storage markets. Our environmental purpose is at the heart of our business and drives our search for new ideas and approaches to improve the technologies that can help transition to net-zero emissions and a sustainable clean energy economy.

We are currently hiring for two Validation positions, and candidates will be considered at both Engineer and Senior Engineer levels based on experience and qualifications.

You will be working alongside the wider engineering team to develop, maintain, and improve our current practices, validation processes and test methodologies. The ideal candidates will have strong hands-on lab experience, a solid understanding of mixed-signal semiconductor systems, and the ability to work effectively within a collaborative engineering environment. In addition, you will be responsible for validating the functionality and performance of our silicon devices and systems to ensure they meet functional, performance and safety requirements.

Senior-level candidates will additionally contribute to shaping the company’s validation strategy, mentoring junior engineers, and driving improvements in engineering processes and workflows. There may also be opportunities to work directly with customers and field teams.

Please note: this role is fully site-based at our Edinburgh office and does not offer hybrid or remote working.
