Thermal Mechanical Engineer

THE ROLE:

We are seeking an experienced Thermal Mechanical Engineer to support the development, characterization, and validation of server and computing platforms. You will perform hands-on thermal testing, CFD analysis, and system-level debug while collaborating with cross-functional engineering teams to optimize platform thermal performance.

THE PERSON:

You are a hands-on engineer with strong experience in thermal characterization, CFD modeling, lab testing, and hardware debug. You can independently investigate complex thermal and mechanical issues, analyze results, and drive technical tasks through resolution.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Perform system-level thermal characterization, validation, and debug of server and computing platforms.
  • Set up and utilize thermal/mechanical lab equipment and instrumentation, including thermocouples, anemometers, power measurement systems, environmental chambers, and Instron equipment.
  • Conduct CFD modeling and thermal analysis to support system design and optimization.
  • Debug thermal and mechanical issues during platform bring-up, validation, and production.
  • Work with platform hardware including motherboards, PCIe cards, power supplies, cabling, chassis, and cooling components.
  • Support mechanical design, prototyping, and test fixture development using 3D CAD tools.
  • Analyze test data, document findings, and recommend solutions to improve thermal performance.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to resolve technical issues and support platform development.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

  • Relevant thermal/mechanical engineering experience, preferably with server, computing, or complex electronic systems.
  • Strong knowledge of thermal engineering, heat transfer, airflow, and cooling solutions.
  • Experience with CFD tools such as IcePak, Flotherm, or OpenFOAM.
  • Hands-on experience with thermal/mechanical lab instrumentation and test equipment.
  • Experience with board- and platform-level hardware debug.
  • Familiarity with computer system architecture and hardware.
  • Experience with SolidWorks; Fusion 360 is a plus.
  • Experience with mechanical fabrication and prototype development is a plus.
  • Familiarity with Linux and Windows environments.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, communication, and technical documentation skills.
  • Ability to independently drive technical assignments in a cross-functional environment.

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline.

Location:

Austin, TX (MET Center)

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
