Use thermal/CFD simulation where appropriate and correlate models against physical test data.
Troubleshoot thermal and cooling-system issues directly on vehicles and hardware, identify root causes, and implement corrective actions.
Work closely with mechanical, electrical, sensor, compute, vehicle integration, and operation teams.
Drive designs from early prototype through validation builds and release in production.
Basic Qualifications
BS/MS in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline.
5+ years of thermal engineering experience, preferably in automotive, autonomous vehicles, robotics, aerospace, or high-power electronics.
Strong hands-on experience designing, building, and validating cooling systems. Demonstrated experience with liquid cooling.
Strong hands-on experience building, instrumenting, and testing thermal systems.
Strong understanding of heat transfer, fluid mechanics, and electronics thermal management.
Experience with environmental chambers and vehicle-level hot/cold testing.
Experience with CAD (Solidworks, NX, Catia or equivalent) and mechanical design
Comfortable working directly with prototype hardware, test equipment, and vehicles.
Demonstrated ability to take an ambiguous thermal problem from measurement → root cause → design → validation.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with thermal/CFD tools
Automotive coolant-loop or vehicle thermal-management experience.
Familiarity with automotive validation, reliability testing, and production design processes.
