What you’ll achieve

As a Thermal System Architect, you will be responsible for defining the product’s thermal requirements, engineering the product to meet those standards, and validating that the product complies with them.

And you’ll be responsible for leading and defining the product designs across a large breath of skillsets, including structural, thermal, manufacturing, serviceability and reliability.

  • Have a high level of creativity, drive, leadership and design skills as you’ll create exciting designs, share knowledge across the technology community and be proud of your industry leading products
  • Be self-motivated, be a strong collaborator, be able to think creatively and to work with others to find solutions, drive execution and focus on results
