Systems Engineer Handheld BEP R&D

You will join the Systems Engineering team, responsible for system architecture and requirements for our current and future battery handheld products. The team consists of ten experienced system engineers. The highly specialized products you will work on are complex systems combining software, electronics, and mechanics. Examples of handheld products we develop include chainsaws, blowers, trimmers and accessories, all of them battery powered and connected to our digital services.

About the Role

As a Systems Engineer, you will play a central role in cross-functional projects, often collaborating with all disciplines within the development organization.

You will be responsible for overall requirements, system architecture, and ensuring system integrity throughout the project. Typical challenges include determining how different functions should be implemented to achieve the best product performance possible for our customers at the right cost. You will also manage system documentation for internal and external stakeholders and work continuously on safety & cyber security aspects together with certification bodies.

We spend time in the field testing our products to gain hands-on experience and better understand their performance. Together, you will define product requirements based on technical possibilities. You will tackle questions such as: How should a battery and tool communicate to gain the best performance? How should the tool connect to the cloud? How should we design for cyber security? What functional safety mechanisms are needed?

Your Profile

You will play a key role in the projects you work on, so we believe you are communicative, a good listener, open to different perspectives, and collaborative in your approach. In true engineering spirit, we document everything we do—and we expect you to be good at that too.
