About the Role
Join a world-class team to create high-end electronics cooling solutions for systems such as AI servers, switches, and accelerators. Work collaboratively to design at the leading edge of cooling technology. As a member of the Hardware Product Development team, partner with hardware, software, and thermal architects to define best-in-class products in a cooperative and non-confrontational culture.
Responsibilities
- Complete ownership of thermal design for various electronic products from thermal modeling, design, test, and design revision, until transfer to manufacturing.
- Conduct thermal simulations, postprocessing, and analysis ranging from chip to facilities level to verify thermal feasibility, risk, and to inform designs.
- Maintain awareness of heat transfer hardware available from all sources, including operation, performance, cost, and incorporation into products.
- Conceive and implement ways to enhance and extend operation of heat transfer hardware.
- Consider the thermal aspects of chip packaging technologies.
- Apply best-in-class fluid flow geometry and technology to cool high heat flux chips.
- Determine and consider the effects of contact resistance and the use of Thermal Interface Materials.
- Apply air cooling when possible and liquid cooling when necessary to achieve full performance and reliability at the lowest cost.
- Size liquid cold plates, heat sinks, heat pipes, air movers, air filters, air ducting, and perforated plates.
- Plan work to achieve full required performance and stay on schedule to support overall product development.
- Reference real-world limitations such as manufacturing methods, cost, reliability, variability of incoming parts, and tolerances on all specifications.
- Perform hands-on lab tests of equipment from component to rack and facility level for design and model validation.
- Document thermal test plans, devise and build test stands, including technical support, cooling liquid supply, power delivery, metrology and instrumentation, compute workload, experiment control, and data recording.
- Analyze test data to draw inferences about the equipment tested, applying statistical methods as required.
- Work with multi-disciplinary groups to define system requirements and design products.
- Work with cross-functional teams to identify root causes of system performance.
Requirements
- Must have relevant coursework in heat transfer and fluid mechanics.
- Good familiarity with 3D software applications.
- This location is a US ITAR facility and these positions will involve the release of export controlled goods either directly to employees or through the employee's movement within the facility.
- Celestica will require necessary information from all applicants upon an applicant's acceptance of employment to determine if any export control exemptions or licenses must be filed.
