  • Perform advanced thermal simulation, validation, and simulation‑to‑measurement correlation.
  • Develop and review thermal validation strategies and test plans.
  • Generate comprehensive thermal assessments and present design recommendations to internal and global customers.
  • Research and evaluate new cooling technologies, including heatsinks, TIMs, cold plates, two‑phase, and liquid cooling solutions.
  • Collaborate with mechanical, electrical, manufacturing, and supplier teams to resolve complex thermal challenges.
  • Mentor junior engineers and promote continuous improvement in thermal methodologies and tools.

Who You Are (Basic Qualifications)

  • Master’s degree in Thermal Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
  • Typically 8+ years of hands‑on experience in thermal design and thermal validation, preferably for server or high‑power electronics.
  • Strong experience with both air cooling and liquid cooling thermal solutions.
  • Knowledge of cold plate manufacturing processes and electronics cooling technologies.
  • Proficiency with thermal simulation tools such as FloTHERM, FloEFD, or Icepak.
  • Experience using CAD tools such as NX, Creo, or SolidWorks.
  • Ability to lead technical discussions and collaborate effectively in English with global teams.

What Will Put You Ahead

  • Experience with servers, switches, optical modules, or AEC transceivers.
