The Junior Thermal Research Engineer will work within a multidisciplinary engineering team to developinnovative thermal management and test solutionsfor high-performance electronics and data center systems.

The role combinesthermal system design, modeling, experimentation, and data science techniques, with a focus on enabling faster design cycles and improved system-level insight.

Primary Responsibilities:

• Support thedesign and development of thermal management systems, including liquid cooling, two-phase cooling, and heat exchanger-based architectures
• Cooling system design includingcold plates, cooling distribution units (CDUs) and passive two-phase solutions (heat pipes and vapor chambers)
• Develop and applythermal-fluid modeling tools(steady-state and transient) for system-level performance prediction, including pressure drop, heat transfer, and coolant distribution
• Implement and usemachine learning, AI and data-driven methods
• Supportdata center cooling system modeling, including rack-level and component-level thermal architecture analysis
• Conductdesign of experiments (DOE)and support experimental testing, including instrumentation, data acquisition, and validation of models
• Create and maintainCAD models and engineering documentation(e.g., SolidWorks designs, P&IDs, drawings, and test plans)
• Assist in development ofcomputational tools and simulation frameworks(Python, MATLAB) to support engineering decision-making and research activities
• Supportprototype development and testbed construction, including integration of thermal systems and measurement capabilities
• Collaborate with senior engineers and researchers to:
  • Evaluate new cooling technologies
  • Improve system efficiency and performance
  • Identify key design tradeoffs
• Contribute to technical documentation, reports, and presentations of results

Additional Responsibilities:

• Supportcomponent and material selectionfor thermal systems (heat exchangers, sensors, cooling loops)
• Assist inmanufacturing and assembly support, including prototype builds and testing
• Understand and evaluatetrade-offs between cost, performance, and scalability
• Participate incross-functional collaborationwith mechanical, electrical, and controls engineers

Experience / Qualifications:
