Ideal candidates will work a hybrid work schedule (4 days/week on-site) in Raleigh, NC or St. Louis Park, MN. *
WHAT YOU WILL EXPERIENCE IN THIS POSITION:
Partner with sales and FAEs to translate customer requirements - such as rack heat loads, facility water parameters, redundancy targets, and layout constraints - into practical liquid cooling architectures and product recommendations.
Perform thermofluid and hydraulic analyses, including flow distribution, pressure drop, pump sizing, and heat rejection performance across architectures involving coolant distribution units (CDUs), secondary fluid networks, rack and row manifolds, and hydronic loops.
Support site surveys, design reviews, and deployment planning to ensure clear design intent, constructability, and reduced execution risk.
Assist with commissioning and field support by validating operating conditions, confirming system performance, and helping resolve deviations from design expectations.
Develop and maintain sizing tools, performance calculators, templates, and supporting technical materials that enable consistent system configuration and accurate quoting.
Capture insights from customer engagements and field deployments and feed them back into Product Management to influence roadmap priorities, reliability, serviceability, and future product development.
Serve as a technical liaison across Product Management, Engineering, Services, Sales, and FAE teams to ensure solutions are scalable, deployable, and aligned with customer outcomes.
YOU HAVE:
B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering, Thermal/Fluids Engineering, Process Engineering, or a related field.
5+ years of engineering experience supporting data center cooling, commissioning, and/or or thermal/fluid systems.
Hands-on experience with high-density liquid cooling technologies such as direct-to-chip cooling, immersion cooling, CDUs, rear-door heat exchangers, and manifold-based distribution systems.
A strong foundation in thermodynamics, heat transfer, fluid dynamics, and hydraulic systems, including pressure drop analysis and flow balancing.
Experience using thermal and flow analysis tools (including CFD or hydronic modeling) to inform real-world design decisions.
Solid understanding of P&IDs, hydronic loop design, pressure testing, and fluid quality management practices.
The ability to communicate effectively with customers and multi-functional project team members in pre-sales and deployment settings.
Ability and willingness to travel up to 50% to support customer engagements, site surveys, and deployment activities.
