Senior Thermal Engineer

About the role

Temperature decides how long a battery lives and how safely it operates. You will work closely with the mechanical, electrical and BMS teams to deliver designs that keep cells within a tight temperature window at the lowest possible auxiliary energy use.

What you'll do

• Own the thermal architecture of BESS containers and racks: liquid or air cooling, HVAC/chiller selection, airflow and coolant distribution
• Build and run thermal and CFD simulations to size cooling systems and minimise cell-to-cell temperature spread
• Define thermal requirements and control set-points with the BMS and controls engineers, including thermal-event detection and response
• Own the thermal-system auxiliary power budget, and optimise cooling efficiency across load profiles and ambient conditions
• Specify and qualify thermal components and suppliers and define enclosure sealing and dust/ingress protection

What you need

• 4–7 yrs of experience
• HVAC
• ANSYS
• CATIA
• SolidWorks
• Creo
• AC repair
• B.Tech or B.E. or M.Tech

Good to have

• Prototyping
