Обязанности
- Build high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and transient thermal modeling strategies across multiple physical scales, spanning from micro-scale electrochemical cell fields to macro-scale containerized systems.
- Validate and anchor numerical physics-based models against empirical data, collaborating with test and instrumentation teams to close the gap between simulation and physical testing.
- Support the development of automated simulation and optimization workflows to systematically evaluate fluid routing, pressure drops, and cooling loop efficiencies.
- Partner with electrochemical, mechanical, and power electronics teams to resolve complex, multi-factor thermal-fluid anomalies during product integration.
- Suggest and exercise judgment in selecting simulation methodologies, mesh structures, and boundary condition assumptions to proactively identify hot spots and thermal risks.
- Drive the standardization of internal modeling workflows and establish rigorous peer design reviews to ensure technical simulation excellence.
- Model initiative by identifying limitations in our physics-based toolsets and building customized, robust tools to eliminate engineering development blocks.
Требования
- Experience with a Bachelor's degree and 5+ years of related work experience, or a Master's degree and multiple years of experience, or a PhD with deep focus on thermal-fluid sciences and some industry experience.
- Deep technical expertise in commercial computational fluid dynamics codes and meshing software, such as Ansys Fluent, Star-CCM+, or Comsol Multiphysics.
- Strong foundational knowledge of conjugate heat transfer, fluid dynamics, multiphase flow, and closed-loop cooling systems.
- Applied experience using scripting languages like Python or MATLAB to post-process, visualize, and automate massive multi-physics datasets.
- Demonstrated track record of translating complex simulation results into actionable, physical system-level requirements that guide design decisions.
- Ability to build formal networks outside your immediate area of expertise to achieve technical alignment on multi-variable design trade-offs.
- Intellectual curiosity that drives a continuous pursuit of understanding novel, complex physical phenomena from the microscale to complete grid integration.
- Pragmatic problem-solving skills to navigate design ambiguity and balance modeling fidelity with rapid execution speed.
- Thriving on complexity and enjoying the challenge of decomposing abstract, highly integrated physical problems into clean, high-performing thermal systems.
