About the Role
An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our Cloud Infrastructure Platform and Solutions (CIPS) Research Team. Our CIPS Research team is focussed on developing future technology systems to support growth in the rapidly evolving data center sector. The successful candidate will be directly involved in early-stage research projects, working with academic institutions, suppliers, customers, and partners to deliver proof of concept designs.
Key Responsibilities:
- Fundamental Research - Complete literature reviews and studies to explore existing and future data center cooling system technologies.
- Ideation - Identify problems, future needs or market gaps to establish areas of interest.
- Project Definition - Produce clear target requirements that the solution must meet.
- Concept Proposal - Generate multiple potential design concepts and choose the best solution based on the defined requirements and feasibility analysis.
- Proof of Concept - Create detailed designs, complete simulations and build test setups to demonstrate the technical feasibility of the proposed system.
- Documentation - Write research reports, design guides, patents and performance reports.
Requirements:
- PhD or Master's degree in Mechanical / Electromechanical Engineering or related field.
- Strong understanding of thermal management, fluid dynamics and electromechanical fundamentals and common technologies.
- Experience with mechanical drawings, prototyping and supplier assessment.
- Knowledge of heat exchangers, fluid dynamics, liquid cooling systems and material science.
- Hands-on prototyping and testing experience with pumps, motors, valves, manifolds, and sensors.
- Familiarity with manufacturing processes and design constraints.
- Expertise in using simulation tools to aid the development and assessment of the proposed solution (ANSYS, COMSOL, OpenFOAM, etc).
- Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
- Demonstrated passion for innovation and commitment to continuous learning.
- We welcome applicants at all experience levels, from graduates to seasoned professionals.
Why Join Us
- Work in a world-class R&D environment with well-equipped labs, top-tier industry connections and collaborative teams.
