Job Description

We are looking for an R&D Engineer, with a keen mind for R&D design of solar module products. The candidate will be responsible for developing and evaluating new materials, structures (including frame profiles) and product designs which provide mechanical advantages from the product point of view.

ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:

Frame: Develop, evaluate and qualify module frame designs and materials for existing and new solar PV products.

Process Development: Drive quality improvement in the mechanical aspect of solar PV products.

Module Packaging: Design and improvement of the existing solar PV packaging.

Simulations: Build-up and conduct mechanical simulations and modelling to ensure the products can take specified mechanical loads (for example FEA). Knowledge and experience in modeling/simulation software is a must (SolidWorks, ANSYS).

ADDITIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES:

· Assist R&D and process teams with technical analyses, troubleshooting and improvement projects.

· Plan, coordinate and execute product enhancements to module design with external collaborators.

· Drive project schedule and technical enquiries. Strategize testing/characterization methods.
