Senior Systems Integration Engineer, Thermal
Lead thermal system design, integration, and verification for an autonomous robotaxi, focusing on cabin and component thermal management across battery, powertrain, and compute subsystems. Requires 10+ years in thermal engineering with strong EV/automotive systems experience.
Responsibilities
- Lead Thermal System and controls for an autonomous robotaxi.
- Design system technical specifications and SFMEA for cabin and component thermal management.
- Develop system design and integration test plans to ensure optimal thermal performance, safety, and efficiency for subsystems (battery, powertrain, computing), considering cost, mass, and latency.
- Collaborate with mechanical, electrical, and firmware teams for system requirements and integration.
- Ensure subsystems fulfill requirements and interfaces.
- Participate in tech reviews for supplier evaluation and guarantee V&V tests are captured.
- Create System FMEAs, diagnostics, and fault reactions for safe operation. Lead issue triage (log/code reviews, HW investigation).
Requirements
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Thermal Engineering, or related field.
- At least 10 years of experience in thermal engineering, preferably in EVs or automotive systems.
- Strong system-level understanding of diverse vehicle thermal architectures for both cabin and component conditioning.
- Familiarity with thermal management requirements specific to autonomous compute, High Voltage Battery, and power electronics in EV platforms.
- Strong foundation in heat transfer, thermodynamics, and fluid mechanics.
- Experience utilizing thermal simulation and system modeling tools, alongside knowledge of thermal controls and calibration concepts.
- Deep knowledge of developing automotive systems using model-based processes.
- Deep knowledge of developing electrical systems and subsystems requirements, with proficiency in tools like IBM DOORS, Siemens Polarion, or similar.
- Knowledge of automotive electrical architectures, including communication protocols (CAN/LIN/Ethernet), application, and defining Physical & Functional interfaces.
- Knowledge of Automotive Diagnostics (UDS) routines and the Functional Safety Standard (ISO 26262).
Nice-to-Haves
