THE ROLE:
An experienced Thermal Engineer is required to work on thermal solutions for engineering design and characterization of next-generation SOC, FPGA, and ASIC products. This role involves collaboration with cross-functional teams, including packaging, electrical, mechanical, and component suppliers. Responsibilities include conducting thermal simulations, testing, and characterization to validate and improve thermal models and solutions for high-performance computing systems.
THE PERSON:
The ideal candidate for the Thermal Engineer role possesses strong communication and problem solving skills, has a keen attention to detail and an independent work ethic. KEY RESONSIBILITIES:
Perform die/package/system-level thermal modeling to analyze and optimize thermal performance.
Develop and execute test plans for hardware and thermal technologies.
Lead external vendors on design, testing, and production.
Support thermal design from concept through manufacturing readiness.
Collaborate with internal teams to ensure technical alignment.
Research advanced thermal management materials and solutions.
Maintain documentation, guidelines, and tools for design processes.
Communicate clearly and collaborate in a team-oriented environment.
PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:
Strong background in heat transfer fundamentals (conduction, convection, radiation).
Expertise in conducting CFD simulations with thermal modeling tools (e.g., Icepak, AEDT, Flotherm, FlothermXT) to predict thermal profiles and cooling performance.
Proficiency with CFD modeling tools (e.g., Icepak) and thermal testing (e.g., DAQ, LabVIEW, thermocouples, airflow measurements, thermal chambers).
Ability to perform preliminary design estimations and post-processing sanity checks.
Knowledge of air and liquid cooling techniques, and experience with testing equipment (wind tunnels, thermal chambers, heat-sinks, cold plates).
Familiarity with programming languages (e.g., Python) for data analysis and tool development.
Experience with CAD tools (e.g., SolidWorks, Creo) for thermal and mechanical compliance.
Proven ability to work independently and collaboratively in a cross-functional team.
Strong technical documentation skills and excellent written and verbal communication.
Experience in vendor-supplier management and marketing/AE technical support.
ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:
Master's degree or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
