Job Description

Junior Thermal Engineer
Key Responsibilities
Thermal & Liquid Cooling Design
•     Assist in the design of liquid cold plates, heat sinks, manifolds, and cooling loops for electronic systems.
•     Support system level thermal architecture development (component → module → system).
•     Participate in coolant selection, flow rate definition, and pressure drop considerations.
Simulation & Analysis
•     Conduct thermal and CFD simulations (steady/transient) to evaluate temperature, flow distribution, and pressure drop.
•     Analyze hotspots, thermal margins, and cooling performance under various operating conditions.
•     Correlate simulation results with experimental data.
Testing & Validation
•     Support thermal characterization and validation testing, including:
o     Temperature measurement (thermocouples, IR camera)
o     Flow, pressure, and leakage tests
•     Assist in test plan creation, data collection, and reporting.
Cross Functional Collaboration
•     Work with mechanical teams on DFM/DFA considerations for cooling hardware.
•     Support electrical and system teams in defining thermal requirements and limits.
•     Interface with manufacturing and suppliers during prototype build and refinement.
Documentation & Engineering Support
•     Prepare engineering documentation, including design reports, test summaries, and technical presentations.
•     Maintain thermal models, assumptions, and design records.

Education
•     Bachelor’s degree (or higher) in:
o     Mechanical Engineering
o     Thermal Engineering
o     or a related field
•     Fresh graduates are welcome
Technical Fundamentals
•     Solid understanding of:
o     Heat transfer (conduction, convection, radiation)
o     Fluid mechanics
o     Basic thermodynamics
Tools & Skills
•     Exposure to thermal or CFD tools such as:
o     ANSYS Icepak / Fluent
o     Siemens FloTHERM
o     COMSOL
o     or similar (academic experience acceptable)
