Job description

The Research Engineer supports the design, modeling, and experimental validation of advanced engineering systems for next-generation electronics applications in data center, semiconductor test, and aerospace/defense markets. The role combines system modeling, data-driven engineering, and product development to accelerate design cycles and improve system-level performance prediction.

Primary Responsibilities

• Support design and development of advanced engineering systems, including fluid-based architectures and exchanger-based designs
• Develop and apply fluid system modeling tools (steady-state and transient) for system-level performance prediction — pressure drop, transfer rates, fluid distribution
• Apply machine learning and data-driven methods to support modeling and design
• Support data center systems modeling at the rack and component level
• Conduct DOE and experimental testing, including instrumentation, data acquisition, and model validation
• Create and maintain CAD models and engineering
• Develop computational tools and simulation frameworks (Python, MATLAB) to support engineering decisions and research
• Support prototype development and testbed construction
• Collaborate with senior engineers to evaluate new technologies, improve efficiency, and identify design tradeoffs
• Contribute to technical documentation, reports, and presentations

Qualifications

• Master\'s or PhD in Mechanical Engineering or related field
• Coursework/focus in fluid dynamics or advanced systems required
• Laboratory experience required; graduate research in fluid sciences or related technologies strongly preferred

Technical Skills

• Modeling: ANSYS or similar CFD tools
• Programming: Python and/or MATLAB preferred

This is 100% onsite, full time in New Hampshire.
