  • Analyze thermal-fluid systems using the appropriate level of complexity, from hand calculations to FEA modeling
  • Develop well-rounded hardware solutions for thermal fluids challenges
  • Contribute to test plans, identifying the test objectives, key data needed, and the instrumentation necessary to obtain this data
  • Maintain documentation, including design reviews, P&IDs, schematics, CAD assemblies and drawings
  • Communicate to broad stakeholders about test results, analysis recommendations, project statuses, etc.

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering or a related field
  • 5+ years experience engineering thermal fluids systems
  • 2+ years performing thermal, structural and fluids analyses ranging from hand calculations to FEA and CFD if necessary
  • 2+ years CAD experience, drafting and fluid schematic design experience
  • 1+ years experience designing custom parts or assemblies for fabrication
  • 2+ years experience with selecting and utilizing fluid system components such as thermocouples, pressure transducers, heaters, flow meters, process valves, solenoid valves, relief valves, regulators and filters
  • Conducting trade studies to determine technical approaches to a project
  • Data post-processing skills that can interpret results and sources of error
  • Self-motivated and can take ownership of projects
  • A positive and collaborative attitude, and an eagerness to learn
  • Innovative spirit and ability to question existing assumptions and requirements
  • An emphasis on elegance and simplicity over complexity
  • Networking and collaboration skills to work with stakeholders with different perspectives and interests, and get help from necessary experts elsewhere in the organization
  • Willingness to occasionally travel or work required nights/weekends/overtime

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Master's or Ph.D. degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field
  • Familiarity with model reduction and mesh optimization for model efficiency
  • Familiarity with electromagnetic fundamentals - voltage, current, resistance, Ohm's Law, AC/DC, right-hand rule, solenoids, etc.
  • Familiarity with structural analysis, or other multi-physics regimes
  • Can communicate technical topics tailored to both technical and non-technical audiences
  • Troubleshooting/problem-solving skills with great attention to detail
  • The ability to thrive in fast-paced, dynamic environments
  • A drive toward commercially viable solutions, and ability to navigate make vs buy decisions
  • Values that align with our company's values of integrity, execution, impact, and self-critique
  • Work in a facility that contains industrial hazards including heat, cold, noise, fumes, strong magnets, lead (Pb), high voltage, high current, pressure systems, and cryogenics
  • Ability to improve efficiency and throughput of processes
