Apply thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid dynamics to design and develop advanced refrigerated display cases.
Perform thermal analysis and testing to support product development phases, including prototypes, performance optimization, and regulatory submissions.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams (Design, Manufacturing, Quality, and Field Service) to ensure product performance and manufacturability.
Support design reviews and provide technical input to guide improvements in refrigeration system efficiency and reliability.
Design and size evaporator coils, piping, and flow control components for new product development.
Develop and execute test plans for compliance with DOE, FDA, NSF, and customer-specific standards.
Evaluate and validate components through qualification testing to ensure robust performance.
Use CFD and heat transfer simulation tools (e.g., ANSYS Fluent, ANSYS CFX, Siemens Simcenter) and CAD modeling tools (e.g., SolidWorks).
Prepare technical documentation, reports, and SOPs to support knowledge transfer and product lifecycle management.
Stay ahead of regulatory changes, adapting design practices to ensure compliance in new product launches.
Requirements
A Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Thermal Engineering, or a related discipline.
