The company's Advanced Development (AD) team in Yokneam is looking for a Senior Thermal Engineer.
NVIDIA is widely considered one of the world’s most desirable employers. We have some of the most brilliant and talented people on the planet working for us.  If you have the drive, experience, and passion to help NVIDIA take visual computing to the next level, we want to hear from you!
NVIDIA is looking for a world-class Thermal Engineer for its Data Center Advanced Development team to architect and engineer advanced thermal management and packaging solutions for future accelerated computing server products.  As a member of NVIDIA, you will be an integral member of a collaborative team that defines and develops advanced thermal solutions from concept through to prototype stage, working with cross-functional teams.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Lead the thermal design and analysis for a number of advanced internal IT/electronics proof-of-concepts (POCs) involving network switches, mid-board optical modules (MBOM), power delivery solutions, and closely related projects.

  • Investigation of new state of the art nmaterials for enhanced Heat Transfer

  • Advanced thermal solutions [Air-cooling, Liquid cooling within servers and Data centers]

  • Collaborate with NVIDIA’s product Design/Engineering and Thermal Engineering teams to develop requirements to ensure that all POCs are properly aligned with future product directions.

  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including Electrical Engineers, Mechanical Engineers, and Product Designers, to ensure effective integration of the thermal solutions for the POCs into the overall product design.

  • Conduct thermal simulations (computational fluid dynamics), analyses, and modeling using industry standard software tools to predict and optimize the thermal behavior of advanced thermal solutions.

  • Develop test procedures, plan tests, and direct Test Technicians to set-up test equipment, run tests, and analyze data for testing of the POCs. Compare experimental results to predicted results and adjust models as needed.

  • Continuously research methods of improving and optimizing cooling systems for thermal performance, power consumption, effective packaging in servers, and total cost of ownership.

What we need to see:

  • Bachelor of Science or Master of Science (preferred) in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent field, with 10+ years’ of relevant experience, preferably in the IT/electronics industry.

  • Capable of leading and owning multiple development efforts simultaneously.

  • Ability to conduct complex thermal analyses using thermal engineering analysis tools such as IcePak, FloTHERM, and Fluent.

  • Working knowledge of a CAD software such as SolidWorks or Creo.

  • Excellent ability to present results of experiments and analyses to multiple engineering disciplines.

  • Desire and ability to work in a dynamic and fast-moving environment.

  • High Level verbal and written communication skills in English.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • Extensive experience within the IT Industry

  • Understanding of Server’s Architecture
