Senior Thermal Engineer, Expeditionary AI / HPC Data Centers

Highlights

• Own thermal design for air-transportable AI data centers for forward operations.
• Keep high-density compute running reliably in austere environments.
• Lead prototype builds through field testing and operational validation.

Ideal candidate

A hands-on, first-principles thermal engineer who thrives owning complex systems end-to-end and keeping critical infrastructure running in austere, contested environments.

Requirements

• MS or higher in mechanical engineering, applied physics, or related field focused on heat transfer, fluid dynamics, and HVAC
• In-depth understanding of heat transfer and fluid dynamics
• 5+ years designing thermal management systems for data centers or comparable mission-critical infrastructure
• Full-spectrum data center thermal experience — air-side and water-side cooling, heat rejection, chilled water plant design, power density management, and liquid cooling
• Steady-state and transient system modeling of thermal management systems, including HVAC and refrigerant simulations
• Validating and testing data center thermal equipment
