Job Description
Aeva’s mission is to bring the next wave of perception to a broad range of applications from automated driving to industrial robotics, consumer electronics, consumer health, security, and beyond.
Key Responsibilities
- Developing and running thermal models of conduction, natural convection, and forced air cooled systems.
- Providing design feedback via plots and screenshots of thermal behavior and air flow, along with recommendations for how to improve performance.
- Designing convective thermal solutions including fans, heatsinks, and vapor chambers, along with conductive thermal solutions including TIMs and TECs.
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience with thermal analysis and modeling of complex systems including silicon packages, PCBs, and fans.
- Proficiency modeling CFD in Siemens FloEFD including transient and steady state analysis.
- Understanding of CFD model optimization for reducing run time (meshing strategy, feature resolution, understanding how different components affect the thermal stack, etc).
- Experience debugging complex models with multiple boundary conditions including solar loading, pressure inlets/outlets, and fixed temperature cabinet walls.
- Experience in designing, speccing, and implementing passive and active thermal management solutions.
- B.S. in Mechanical Engineering or related field.
- Strong understanding of heat transfer principles, fluid dynamics and thermodynamics.
- Experience in designing advanced thermal management solutions such as heat pipes, 2D vapour chamber, 3D Vapour chamber, etc.
- Good experience in selection and application of right thermal interface material ( gap filler pad, gels, grease, paste, phase change materials, epoxy etc.)
- Experience with Multiphysics analysis techniques such as thermal expansion in structural simulation, outputting model results into optical analysis (STOP), etc.
- Experience designing thermal solutions for automotive components.
- Deep understanding of the thermomechanical properties and failure modes of glass, laminated composite structures, ceramics, polymers, metals, and adhesives.
- Solidworks modeling experience
