Job Description Job Title: DVT Engineer Lead - Liquid Cooling Job Summary If you thrive on solving complex engineering challenges through hands-on experimentation, rigorous test engineering, and technical leadership, this role offers the opportunity to shape the future of liquid-cooling technology for AI-driven datacenters. The DVT Engineer Lead is responsible for driving the Design Verification Testing strategy and quality assurance for next-generation liquid-cooling products. This role spans the entire NPDI (New Product Development & Introduction) lifecycle - from concept and design review, to performance/reliability testing, to product qualification. The DVT Lead provides technical direction, ensures compliance with internal and industry standards, and delivers validated, high-quality products to market. This position requires collaboration across mechanical, electrical, controls, process, and manufacturing engineering in a fast-paced, world-class lab environment. Key Responsibilities:

Own and lead the creation, approval, and execution of Design Verification Test (DVT) plans for all new liquid-cooling products.

Review and challenge product requirements/specifications to ensure testability, completeness, and alignment with customer needs.

Plan, schedule, and oversee performance testing, reliability testing, safety testing, and component-level qualification activities.

Ensure accurate data capture, documentation, and reporting for internal reviews, design updates, and customer witness tests.

Participate in every phase of NPDI, including concept feasibility, design reviews, proto@type validation, pilot builds, field trial support, and readiness for mass production.

Lead DVT sign-off and ensure all verification evidence meets internal quality standards.

Support gate reviews by presenting test results, risk assessments, validation readiness, and quality status.

Work closely with mechanical, electrical, software/controls, and manufacturing teams to validate designs, identify issues, and drive corrective actions.

Partner with offering managers, sourcing teams, quality engineering, and service teams for lifecycle improvements and supplier qualification.

Collaborate with process and lab engineering to design and implement test facility upgrades, instrumentation improvements, and capacity expansions.

Collaborate with firmware/controls teams to verify control algorithms, fault handling, and system responses.

Ensure adherence to engineering standards, safety protocols, and lab procedures.

Develop test methods, automation improvements, and data-analysis frameworks to accelerate validation and improve accuracy.

Drive engineering analyses using thermodynamics, heat transfer, fluid mechanics, and reliability engineering principles.

Validate analytical and empirical performance models; contribute to data-driven design improvements.

Lead investigations into design issues, field failures, and validation non-conformances.

Support root-cause analysis using structured problem-solving approaches (8D, FMEA, Ishikawa).

Extended Responsibilities:

Guide occasional use of CFD/FEA for test correlation and design critique.

Support component verification testing for alternate suppliers or design changes.

Represent DVT in design reviews, customer witness testing, and internal audits.

Basic Requirements:

Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a closely related field.

5 plus years of engineering experience in product development, test engineering, or validation of thermal or electromechanical systems.
