Job description

Cornelis Networks is hiring a talented Entry-Level Thermal Engineer with a foundational understanding of heat transfer and fluid dynamics. In this entry-level role, you will support the design, simulation, and physical testing of thermal management solutions for the next-generation Cornelis Networks Fabric platforms. You will work closely with senior thermal, mechanical, and electrical engineers to evaluate high-performance electronics cooling from the componentlevel up to the system level.


The ability to effectively focus a significant amount of computational power on solving critical problems through the use of artificial intelligence, data analytics, and modeling/simulation techniques is vital to many scientific, commercial, and government organizations, and it is the mission of Cornelis Networks to deliver innovative purpose-built interconnect solutions that enable our customers to optimally apply vast computational resources to solve the world's toughest problems.



Key tasks include:

  • Lab Testing & Validation: Set up and execute thermal measurements and qualification testing. Apply thermocouples, manage data acquisition (DAQ) systems, and collect empirical data tovalidatethermal designs.
  • Simulate & Model: Assist senior engineers in executing computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and thermal simulations, including modeling, pre-/post-processing, and analysis.
  • ComponentThermal Design Support: Support the thermal design and evaluation of PCBs, heat sinks, and thermal interface materials (TIMs).
  • Data Analysis & Reporting: Analyze thermal test data, summarize findings, and contribute to formal engineering test reports and guidelines.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with mechanical, electrical, and manufacturing teams to understand design constraints and support product readiness.


Minimum qualifications

  • BS in Mechanical Engineering with a focus in Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer, Fluid Dynamics, or Thermal Engineering.
  • 0-3 years of experience in thermal engineering (internship, co-op, or academic lab experience qualifies).
  • Hands-on experience in a lab environment: familiarity with thermal sensors, data acquisition, and test execution.
  • Familiarity with 3D MCAD tools (CREO preferred, SolidWorks acceptable).
  • Familiarity with basic CFD tools and concepts (academic or industry exposure to Cadence Celsius EC, SiemensFlotherm, or AnsysIcepakis highly desired).
  • Understanding ofbasiccoolingmethods (conduction, convection, heat sinks, and thermal interface materials).
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills; eager to learn and work in a cross-disciplinary team.


Preferred qualifications:

  • MS in Mechanical Engineering.
  • Scripting experience (e.g., Python, MATLAB) for test automation or thermal data analysis.
  • Prior experience specifically using Cadence Celsius EC for electronics cooling simulation.
  • Familiarity with liquid cooling systems, cold plates, or two-phase cooling methods.
  • Exposure to high-performance computing (HPC) or data center environments.


Location

This position is hybrid (on-site with some remote work possible) at the headquarters in the Chesterbrook Corporate Center in Wayne, PA. The successful candidateresideswithin commuting distance.
