Cooling System Engineer

Foxconn WI

Responsibilities

  • will collaborate with cross-functional teams—including mechanical, electrical, and reliability engineers—to design innovative cooling strategies, conduct thermal simulations, and validate system-level thermal compliance.
  • Design and develop cooling solutions for servers, storage, and AI/HPC systems, including air-cooled and liquid-cooled architectures.
  • Perform thermal analysis and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling to evaluate airflow, pressure drop, and heat dissipation.
  • Validate thermal and acoustic performance through lab testing, including environmental chambers, wind tunnels, and prototype systems.
  • Collaborate with mechanical and electrical design teams to ensure system integration and compliance with thermal specifications.
  • Define thermal design requirements, specifications, and test methodologies for cooling systems and components.
  • Evaluate new cooling technologies, materials, and manufacturing methods for potential implementation.
  • Support root cause analysis and corrective actions for thermal-related field or reliability issues.
  • Generate technical reports, design documentation, and presentations to communicate test results and design recommendations.
  • Ensure compliance with industry standards, energy efficiency requirements, and safety guidelines.
  • Work closely with suppliers and manufacturing partners to qualify cooling components and systems.
  • Participate in continuous improvement activities to optimize cost, performance, and manufacturability of cooling solutions.
  • Other duties as assigned.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Thermal Engineering, or related field required.
