Job Title

Battery Reliability Architect

Job Description

Do you want to make batteries in Philips products safer and more reliable? The System Platforms department in Philips Innovation Engineering drives reuse of hardware and embedded software platform assets to make product development more efficient for our Businesses. As Battery Reliability Architect, you ensure that every battery-powered product we bring to market is reliable by design, from cell selection and qualification to performance in the field.

Your role:

  • You protect patient safety and quality and help reduce R&D effort and Cost of Non-Quality across Philips. To do this, you:Translate battery failure mechanisms (such as thermal runaway) and field learnings into reliability requirements, architecture and design guidance. Support the battery lab activities in Drachten, Eindhoven and Pune: plan, execute and interpret qualification and reliability testing of battery cells and packs across current and emerging chemistries, enabling catalog cell releases that shorten Business battery projects. Manage reliability projects and the qualification pipeline for the Battery Platform as technical project manager. This includes prioritization, lab planning and utilization, and delivery within agreed timelines, budgets and resources, with proactive risk management and escalation. Apply Design for Reliability practices and document qualification standards to reduce person dependency.
  • You join the Battery Platform team within System Platforms and work closely with the platform program manager, platform architect, Subject Matter Experts and lab owners at each site. You build strong relationships with Business R&D project teams (new product introduction and lifecycle management), Procurement, Patient Safety & Quality, cell and pack suppliers and IEN Quality & Reliability colleagues. You manage expectations and keep everyone aligned on qualification priorities.
  • You can grow as a Reliability Architect in an enterprise-wide platform with visible impact. You'll build expertise in emerging cell technologies on our roadmap (e.g., sodium-ion, LiFePO4, solid-state), develop your project and stakeholder management skills, and coach and develop team members in the Netherlands and India on Design for Reliability and Design for Six Sigma.
  • The role is based in Eindhoven, with regular travel to Drachten and Pune.

You're the right fit if:

  • You have 8+ years of experience in reliability engineering in a regulated industry, preferably medical devices. This includes hands-on Li-ion cell and/or battery pack qualification and reliability testing.
  • Strong battery knowledge (essential): Li-ion cell chemistries, failure mechanisms, safety risks and qualification approaches.
  • Design for Reliability (DfR) methodology across the full cycle: setting product reliability goals, FMEA (hardware and software), designing test plans, test execution and data acquisition, reliability data analysis and test reports, inspection and failure analysis, and recommending corrective actions. Also FTA, HALT/accelerated life testing and FRACAS.
  • Statistical and reliability tools such as Minitab and ReliaSoft (Weibull++, ALTA); Ansys Sherlock, R or Python is a plus.
  • Technical project management: planning and estimation, risk management, resource planning and allocation, and stakeholder management.
  • Broad experience in system engineering, applying the different phases of the V-model in the development of battery packs and cell qualification.
  • AI Practitioner-level certification with hands-on experience. Applies AI in role-specific use cases, critically evaluates AI outputs, and shares AI learnings within communities.
  • Master's degree (M.Tech or equivalent) in Reliability Engineering, with a Bachelor's degree (B.Tech or equivalent) in Electrical and Electronics Engineering or a related field.
  • You hold Design for Six Sigma Green Belt certification (Black Belt is a plus) and have experience training cross-functional teams in Design for Reliability and FMEA.
  • You are hands-on, collaborative and an excellent communicator who can bridge working cultures between the Netherlands and India.

Compensation & benefits Doing meaningful work should come with fair, transparent rewards. The base salary range for this role is € 61,185 – € 101,976. We determine pay within the range using objective factors, like the skills the role requires, your relevant experience and the responsibility you'll have in this role, alongside internal equity and local market considerations.

This role is eligible for 3% annual bonus with your rewards linked to KPIs and the company’s performance. We’ll share the full approach with you during the interview process, so you can make a clear, informed decision. Benefits include generous paid leave, paid parental leave, employer pension contributions, health and wellbeing programs and discounts on Philips products. Discuss in more detail with your recruiter.

How we work together We believe that we are better together than apart. For our office-based teams, this means working in-person at least 3 days per week. Onsite roles require full-time presence in the company’s facilities. Field roles are most effectively done outside of the company’s main facilities, generally at the customers’ or suppliers’ locations.
