Thermal Engineer

About the role

Conduct test and verification of system and component level thermal solution by using computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulation tool, and 3D & 2D CAD modeling tools.

Responsibilities

• Facilitate with the R&D team in planning and executing testing required to refine thermal systems.
• Understand testing needs, milestones & deliverables, test capacity, manage priorities, and communicate schedule to key stakeholders.
• Develop thermal test plans, using thermal chambers, thermocouples, thermal meters and power supplies, creating tests and instrumentation for data collection and reporting, performing tests.
• Work with product engineer to optimize the thermal solution and go through qualification process to transfer the product into mass production.
• Investigate failures through physical testing of our thermal products to accurately predict the system's robustness and optimize product reliability.
• Facilitate failure analysis to understand root cause and drive resolution for failures originating in testing.
• Participate in failure and Root Cause Analysis of sub-systems and components from validation, reliability, and/or field testing.
• Author and release test procedures for development testing, acceptance testing, qualification testing & certification testing for the thermal systems and components.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree or foreign equivalent degree in Mechanical Engineer, Refrigeration, Air Conditioning and Energy Engineering, or related fields.
• Two years of experience in thermal engineering and testing.
• Two (2) years of experience in the following disciplines:
  • Thermal testing engineering in manufacturing environment.
  • HVAC refrigeration systems in an automotive or similar industry.
  • Air flow characterization (pressure drop measurement and air flow determination).
  • Theory and methodologies for heat transfer and electrical circuits.
  • Lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, power supplies and analyzers etc.
  • Testing thermal systems experience around integration testing.
  • Test data collection and analysis.
  • CAD tools, CAD models, hand sketches, and technical drawings.
