Job Description:

We are looking for an experienced Senior Thermal Engineer to support the design, analysis, and validation of cooling solutions for high-density electronic systems.

This role focuses on practical thermal engineering, detailed analysis, CFD simulation, and hands-on lab testing to ensure products meet strict thermal performance and reliability requirements.

Key Responsibilities:


* Perform detailed thermal analysis and CFD simulations (FloTHERM preferred; ICEPAK acceptable) for electronic systems and components.


* Develop and specify thermal solutions including heat sinks, vapor chambers, heat pipes, fans, and thermal interface materials (TIMs).


* Conduct thermal feasibility studies, airflow analysis, and pressure drop evaluations.


* Review mechanical designs (SolidWorks, Pro/E/Creo) to ensure proper integration of cooling solutions.


* Create and execute thermal test plans; supervise lab testing and interpret results.


* Collaborate with mechanical, electrical, and system engineers to resolve thermal issues and ensure compliance with requirements.


* Prepare clear technical reports and communicate findings to engineering teams.


* Provide guidance to junior engineers and support cross-functional development activities.

Required Qualifications:


* Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering (BSME required).


* 5+ years of engineering experience, including 4+ years in thermal engineering for electronics.


* Requires strong proficiency in air‑cooled electronics, fan selection, airflow optimization, and heat‑sink technologies.


* Experience with liquid‑cooling architectures is a desirable plus.


* Proficiency with CFD tools (FloTHERM strongly preferred).


* Working knowledge of CAD tools for model review.


* Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.


* Hands-on experience with thermal testing and lab equipment.

Preferred Qualification:


* Master's degree in Mechanical or Thermal Engineering.


* Background in networking, server, telecom, aerospace, or other high-reliability industries.
