** Senior/Lead Residential HVAC System & Application Engineer
** will be responsible for aligning and syncing residential compression design, testing, and qualification practices with practical HVAC system design, modeling, and operational conventions.  The individual will work closely with compression development teams to ensure that products are system-optimized, with a focus on world-class performance, efficiency, quality, and reliability during both normal and abnormal system operation.

* Collaborate with R&D and product management to ensure new product designs align with application requirements and market needs.
* Provide advanced technical expertise and guidance from a system application perspective, with a focus on how system operation impacts the compressor.  Support Application FMEAs to ensure compressor designs appropriately consider all appropriate system operating nuances.
* Generate robust application guidance, technical documentation, and training materials for internal teams, contractors, and channel partners for new and existing compression solutions based on the anticipated (normal and abnormal) operation anticipated in the field.
* Collaborate with Reliability Engineering and Quality Engineering teams to improve and optimize life testing protocols based on real-world system operating profiles.
* Conduct application testing, simulations, and performance evaluations using HVAC system modeling tools and software to support your hypothesis and conclusions.
* Stay informed of existing and emerging residential compressor and system design, qualification, and rating standards & regulatory requirements (UL, AHRI, ASHRAE, etc.)
* Engage and collaborate closely with customers, particularly those in engineering who are evaluating compression technology in order to rationalize value assumptions and obtain feedback on applicability of future technologies.

Serve as the
** subject matter expert
** for residential HVAC system knowledge, closing competency gaps in system design and operation knowledge within the broader compressor engineering community.  Work closely with Product Development teams to build and maintain a strong technical comprehension of current and future compression products, with a focus on how these designs are affected by system architecture and normal/abnormal system operation.
