The ideal candidate will bridge the gap between simulation and hardware by driving correlation, validation, and design improvements across the product lifecycle.The candidate should thrive in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment and demonstrate deep expertise in both thermal modeling and system-level testing.

• Develop and execute thermal and CFD models for electronic systems, including servers, networking platforms, and liquid-cooled solutions

• Perform thermal simulations to predict temperature, airflow, and pressure behavior
• Model and analyze cooling technologies such as heat sinks, vapor chambers, heat pipes, fans, and liquid cooling systems
• Conduct design trade-off studies and optimization to improve thermal performance, power density, and efficiency
• Drive simulation-based design decisions during early architecture and design phases

• Perform hands-on thermal testing, including system setup, instrumentation, validation, and troubleshooting in lab environments
• Conduct system-level thermal characterization, including airflow, temperature mapping, and pressure drop measurements
• Execute validation of cooling solutions to ensure compliance with performance, reliability, and quality requirements

• Drive correlation between simulation and test results, identifying gaps and improving model fidelity
• Collaborate closely with mechanical, electrical, and system teams to enable optimized and robust thermal designs
• Lead development of thermal strategies, test plans, and modeling guidelines for HPE platforms

What you need to bring:

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Electronics, Electrical or equivalent.
