Primary ResponsibilitiesHigh-Level System Design: Drive the initial high-level design of large-scale cryogenic systems, focusing on thermal management from room temperature to sub-Kelvin temperatures.
Research and Analysis: Conduct in-depth research on potential solutions to specific cryogenic challenges, utilizing scientific literature and emerging technologies to inform design strategies.
Modeling and Simulation: Perform comprehensive analysis and modeling to evaluate and determine the best solutions, employing computational tools (e.g., ANSYS, COMSOL, Python) for thermal and fluid dynamics simulations.
Solution Implementation: Design and plan the implementation of selected solutions, creating detailed specifications for development and deployment.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with multidisciplinary teams (cryogenic, mechanical, electrical, software) to ensure seamless integration of designs into fully functional products.

Qualifications • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Physics, or a related field; Ph.D. preferred.
• 5-8 years of hands-on experience with liquid nitrogen and liquid helium systems, including designing, building, or significantly modifying cryogenic systems.
• Proficiency in heat transfer, thermodynamics, and fluid dynamics, with skills in designing mechanical systems that operate reliably at cryogenic temperatures.
• Knowledge of material science, especially how materials behave at low temperatures, and experience with stress analysis under thermal contraction.
• Familiarity with cryogenic equipment and instrumentation, including cryogenic thermometers and data acquisition systems.
• Experience with computational fluid dynamics (CFD), thermodynamic modeling, and material databases like REFPROP.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, with creativity in developing innovative solutions to technical challenges.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with experience writing technical reports and documentation.
• Proven ability to work effectively in multidisciplinary teams and lead projects from concept to implementation.
• Self-starter with the ability to drive results independently and adapt to new challenges and technologies.
