What you will do
Thermal limits are the hidden bottleneck holding back the world s most advanced technologies AI infrastructure, semiconductor equipment, power electronics, and mission-critical defense systems. At Johnson Controls, we don t work around those limits we eliminate them.
Powered by our breakthrough Stack Forging process, we engineer high-performance thermal components and integrated cooling loop solutions designed for direct deployment into AI, HPC, and other demanding environments. The result: a best-in-class thermal management platform built for the systems that push performance to the edge and beyond.
In this role, you won t just model performance you ll help redefine what s possible. Leveraging both first-principles analysis and advanced computational tools, you ll predict and push the limits of JCI s cutting-edge thermal management technologies.You ll collaborate closely with Solutions Engineers and Thermal Design Engineers to solve complex, high-stakes challenges and optimize designs that meet and exceed demanding customer requirements. Along the way, you ll play a key role in shaping our simulation best practices, influencing how we scale excellence, and continuing to learn alongside some of the industry s top simulation talent.
This position requires an onsite presence 4 days a week, with an option to work remotely 1 day a week. Candidates must be commuting distance to the facility, or able to relocate. Only US citizens and/or Permanent Residents of the US will be considered, as sponsorship is not available for this position.
How you will do it
Hand calculations, select appropriate correlation coefficients, and build simple scaling models
Perform coupled thermo-fluid simulations using CFD software to predict pressure drop and thermal performance
Provide guidance and input on customer development projects
Develop and improve best practices around simulation
What you will need
Required
Bachelors in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or other relevant field
Experience with CFD simulation software
7+ years of experience in thermal-fluid simulation and analysis, including but not limited to comfort with selecting turbulence closures, running mesh refinement studies, estimating model error, and extracting dimensionless correlation coefficients from simulations
Experience with a wide range of reference literature on calculating thermal and fluid behavior of components
Ability to deliver results in a quickly evolving environment, delivering estimates for thermal performance of a design within a few days to accelerate customer-facing projects
Familiarity with design engineering work, specifically, an understanding of what an engineering design process looks like and how their work informs that process
HIRING SALARY RANGE: $105,000 - $160,000 (Salary to be determined by the education, experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities of the applicant, internal equity, and alignment with market data.) This role offers a competitive Bonus plan that will take into account individual, group, and corporate performance. This position includes a competitive benefits package. The posted salary range reflects the target compensation for this role. However, we recognize that exceptional candidates may bring unique skills and experiences that exceed the typical profile.
