Data Center Thermal Architect

Remote (Fully remote within the United States)

$200000 - $245000 (Plus bonus opportunities)

Develop system-level thermal architectures for rack-mounted server, storage, GPU, AI, and high-performance computing platforms across the full product-development lifecycle.

• Model airflow and cooling performance, analyze component temperatures, and assess system-level thermal risks using Simcenter Flotherm.
• Establish supplier specifications and technical requirements to support thermal design execution, validation, and production support.
• Collaborate with internal engineering teams, mechanical and electrical engineering partners, system architects, and global supply-chain stakeholders to translate requirements into reliable, manufacturable solutions.
• Engage directly with customers to understand technical and business needs, then present recommendations and simulation findings to technical and nontechnical audiences.

Direct server or data-center experience is required; candidates without this environment should not be submitted.

• Approximately 10+ years of relevant engineering experience preferred (exceptionally qualified candidates with 5+ years may be considered if they have performed the same type of work for a major server manufacturer).
• Demonstrated platform-level or system-level thermal architecture experience for high-density computing products (servers, storage systems, GPU platforms, AI infrastructure, or similar).
• Advanced computational fluid dynamics and thermal simulation experience, including strong working knowledge of Simcenter Flotherm.
• Experience collaborating with suppliers and cross-functional engineering teams, plus strong technical communication and problem-solving skills.

Opportunity to help shape thermal architectures for cloud and data-center infrastructure products during a period of significant growth. Work within a specialized architecture team of approximately 15 specialists across thermal, power, mechanical, network, and systems architecture. Contribute to a technical center of excellence that supports design validation from early concept modeling through supplier execution. Fully remote role within the United States, with occasional off-hours collaboration to support global teams.

Fast-moving interview process, with the possibility of consecutive interviews or a short timeframe on-site meeting when required.
