A Senior Thermal Engineer has the exciting job of developing 1D simulation models at the component and the full vehicle level. The ideal candidate should have a strong passion for modeling, technology and engineering with a background in mechanical/aerospace engineering or applied physics education and 5+ years of working experience within the industry.

 

1. Responsibilities

• Responsible for building and developing 1D simulation models at component and full vehicle level with an emphasis on powertrain and battery thermal and electric models

• Integration of the vehicle sub-systems into a single vehicle 1D model

• Integration between various 1D models (built in various 1D software) from other departments and suppliers

• Coupling of system level 1D model with CFD component level simulations

• Support improvements in modelling techniques to help increase simulation accuracy and engineering knowhow

• Interacting with other departments or suppliers to collect input data for simulation and model building

• Participating in development testing

• Providing suggestions and improvements based on simulation and/or experimental data

• Mentoring less experienced colleagues
