Competenze

• Bachelor of Science in Mechanical, Chemical, or Energy Engineering or related field.
• Minimum of 5+ years of applications, systems, or process engineering experience.
• PE would be a plus.
• Experience with thermal energy storage, chilled-water plants, district energy, or HVAC central plant systems strongly preferred.
• Experience with engineered packaged equipment in a manufacturing or EPC environment.
• Strong foundation in fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and thermodynamics, with the ability to apply them to complete systems.
• Knowledge of thermal stratification, diffuser design, hydraulic analysis, and multi-tank systems for TES applications is highly desired.
• Experience sizing and selecting system equipment such as pumps, valves, tanks, and instrumentation, and developing P&IDs.
• Familiarity with computational fluid dynamics software; CFD experience is a plus.
• Working knowledge of relevant codes and standards (e.g., API, ASME, AWWA, ASHRAE).
• Understanding of control systems, including PLC/HMI/BAS integration and sequence-of-operation development.
• Collaborative team player with strong communication and presentation skills; able to work remotely within a cross-functional, multi-company engineering team.
• Must be authorized to work in the U.S. We are unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of an employment visa at this time.

Mansioni

• As part of the Shared Services team, develop system concepts and designs that integrate company products into complete solutions that meet customer performance requirements.
• Perform system-level engineering analysis, including fluid flow, stress analysis, thermal performance, and equipment sizing to establish and validate the design basis.
• Evaluate alternative system configurations and recommend the best solution based on performance, cost, reliability, and code requirements.
• Contribute to equipment specification and selection, and help define the interfaces between mechanical, electrical, and controls scopes.
• TES systems, design and optimization including diffusers, piping arrangements, valving, tank connections, and hydraulic systems to maintain thermal stratification across single- and multi-tank configurations.
• Develop instrumentation and controls strategies in coordination with the local controls teams.
• Partner with Sales and Business Development to qualify opportunities, review customer specifications, and develop technical proposals.
• Provide system-level technical support to Sales, customers, consulting engineers, and contractors.
• Define system performance criteria, testing, and commissioning procedures, and support field start-up to confirm systems perform as intended.
• Collaborate with engineering, fabrication, and controls teams across the corporate divisions so their products work together as one system.
• Help translate system requirements into clear inputs for project and design teams and participate in design reviews.
• Work with external consultants and specialists, helping build that expertise into Corporate's internal capabilities.
• Participate in the Corporate NPD process, from concept and business case through design validation and launch.
• Help develop system design standards, specifications, and best practices for a repeatable product platform, with the flexibility to address different industries, applications, system sizes, and customer operating conditions.
• Identify additional markets and applications where corporate products can be offered as engineered systems.
• Stay current with industry codes, standards, technologies, and competitor offerings.
