Responsibilities

• Reference Design Management: Maintain and update thermal system reference designs for AI server platforms from Nvidia (e.g., HGX, MGX, GB200), AMD (Instinct), Intel (Gaudi), and other emerging GPU/accelerator vendors.

• Thermal Requirements Tracking: capture and document thermal specifications (cooling capacity, flow rates, temperature ranges, connector types) from partner technical documentation and communicate them to internal engineering teams.

• Voice of Customer (VOC): Liaise with technical account managers and partner engineering contacts at Nvidia, AMD, and similar companies to understand upcoming thermal needs for next-generation GPUs and servers.

• Contribute to the definition of thermal system requirements, specifications, and application guidelines for AI infrastructure projects.

• Documentation & Tools Support: Assist in developing and maintaining technical collateral, including thermal design guides, compatibility matrices, and configuration tools for data center reference designs.

• Cross-functional Coordination: Work with engineering, advanced development, and regional sales teams to ensure reference designs are technically accurate and commercially ready.

• Competitor & Market Monitoring: Track thermal reference design trends from competing cooling solution providers and keep updated benchmarking presentations.

• Launch Support: Support new product introduction (NPDI) activities by preparing thermal system data sheets, application notes, and partner-facing presentations, training and sales tools.

• Customer & Partner Meetings: Participate in technical meetings with server OEMs and GPU manufacturers (under the guidance of senior PMs) to gather thermal requirements and present reference design options.

Requirements

• Education: Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Thermal Engineering, Energy Systems, or a related technical field. (Master's degree is a plus but not required).

• Experience: 4-7 years of experience in product management, thermal engineering, technical sales support, or application engineering within the data center, server cooling, or semiconductor thermal space.

• Technical Knowledge: Basic understanding of thermal management technologies (air cooling, direct-to-chip liquid cooling, immersion cooling) and how they apply to high-power GPUs (500W-1000W+).

• Ecosystem Awareness: Familiarity with Nvidia, AMD, and Intel server platforms and their thermal reference design processes is highly desirable.

• Communication Skills: Ability to clearly document technical requirements and present them to both engineering and non-technical stakeholders.

• Tools Proficiency: Experience with requirements management tools, and basic data analysis.

• Mindset: Highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable working in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment. No prior P&L or strategic ownership required.

Preferred (Nice to Have):

• Prior experience working with Nvidia’s Partner Network (NPN) or AMD’s server ecosystem.

• Exposure to liquid cooling solutions (CDUs, cold plates, manifolds) for AI clusters.

• Knowledge of industry standards (OCP, ASHRAE, ITE).
