AI / Simulation Engineer (Thermal - Electronics Cooling)

Bangalore, Karnataka, India

Trending

Responsibilities

  • • Develop and execute Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) and thermal simulations for electronics cooling applications, including airflow, forced and natural convection, and conjugate heat transfer

  • • Support component-, board-, enclosure-, cabinet-, and sub-system–level thermal analysis for products such as circuit breakers, PLCs, laptops, and appliances

  • • Analyze industrial environments (EIA) including high ambient temperatures, enclosure heating, dust effects, and derating requirements

  • • Assist in rapid model setup and simulation turnaround to support internal service requests and customer engineering needs

  • • Apply appropriate boundary conditions including power losses (I²R, switching losses), contact resistance, and environmental loads

  • • Support steady-state and transient thermal analyses, including power cycling, duty cycles, startup conditions, and basic fault scenarios

  • • Evaluate airflow distribution in control panels, switchgear assemblies, and electronic enclosures

  • • Post-process and interpret simulation results to identify thermal risks, hotspots, airflow inefficiencies, and design improvement opportunities

  • • Assist in correlating simulation results with temperature rise tests, lab measurements, and field observations

  • • Prepare clear technical summaries and documentation of assumptions, methods, results, and limitations

  • • Support verification and validation (V&V) activities, including comparison with test data using engineering metrics

  • • Engage with senior engineers to understand UL/IEC standards, certification requirements, and temperature rise limits

  • • Learn and apply best practices in mesh strategy, numerical stability, convergence assessment, and result credibility

  • • Support design optimization activities such as heat sink sizing, airflow path improvement, and enclosure ventilation strategies

  • • Collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams (electrical, mechanical, regulatory) and contribute to a learning-oriented, supportive team culture

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Thermal Sciences, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field from a reputed institution
  • 4–8 years of industrial or applied experience in Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) and thermal-fluid simulations (internships and thesis work may be considered)
  • Strong fundamentals in:
  • Fluid mechanics and basic turbulence modeling
  • Heat transfer (conduction, convection, radiation)
  • Thermodynamics relevant to electronics cooling
  • Hands-on exposure to CFD model setup, solution execution, and result interpretation
  • Familiarity with at least one commercial simulation tool such as:
  • ANSYS Icepak, ANSYS Fluent
  • Siemens FloTHERM / FloEFD
  • STAR-CCM+, COMSOL, or similar software
  • Basic understanding of mesh generation and grid quality concepts, solver settings and convergence behavior
  • Structured modeling workflows and technical guidelines
  • Good written and verbal communication skills, with ability to explain results clearly

• Self-motivated, detail-oriented, and comfortable learning in a technically rigorous environment

  • Exposure to electronics thermal management, including:
  • ICs, PCBs, power electronics
  • Heat sinks, fans, vents, and enclosures
  • Awareness of electronics packaging constraints such as:
  • Space limitations, airflow resistance
  • Material properties and power dissipation
  • Basic experience with thermal testing, such as thermocouple placement, temperature measurement, or data acquisition

• Introductory experience correlating simulation results with test or experimental data

  • Familiarity with transient thermal behavior, power cycling, and reliability considerations
  • Exposure or interest in industrial products such as circuit breakers, PLCs, switchgear, or control panels
  • Interest in automation, scripting, or AI-assisted simulation workflows
