What You Will Experience In This Position

• Analyze and perform component- and system-level simulations for various industrial cooling systems, including industrial air conditioners, air-to-air heat exchangers, and cooling distribution units (liquid-to-air, liquid-to-liquid, etc.), along with their sub-systems such as heat exchangers, fans, and pumps.
• Conduct comprehensive thermal analysis of various sub-systems, to identify areas for improvement to optimize the products. Ensure efficient and optimized system architecture, working alongside CFD engineers thermal architects, and test engineers.
• Plan for prototype and create DOE for thermal testing and validation of systems and sub-systems.
• Work closely with CAD designers, and mechanical, electrical, and firmware engineers to develop a refined product, that meets customer specifications and guidelines
• Analyze test data, identify issues, propose new designs, and corrective actions, working along with manufacturing engineers
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship in the areas of thermal science and fluid mechanics.
• Collaborate with Engineering Project Leaders and stakeholders to align on tasks’ scope, timelines, objectives, and completion.
• Drive work independently while managing ambiguity, and be proactive in managing and communicating risk.
• Stay abreast of emerging technologies and trends in liquid cooling system designs, via attending various conferences internal and external.
• Drive innovation through research, development, and implementation of cutting-edge solutions.
