About the role
Key responsibilities & impact- Take cooling equipment from initial requirements through detailed engineering, fabrication, testing and production for European and US markets
- Translate cooling loads, ambient conditions, temperature limits, space constraints, efficiency targets and noise requirements into engineering specifications and design margins
- Perform heat balances, heat-transfer calculations, heat-exchanger sizing, airflow calculations, hydraulic calculations and pressure-drop analysis
- Select and size coils, fans, pumps, compressors, valves, expansion devices, piping and insulation using supplier performance data and operating limits
- Evaluate full-load and part-load performance, extreme ambient conditions and energy consumption
- Develop thermal and fluid models, validate assumptions and use simulation to support design decisions
- Produce layouts, 3D assemblies, fabrication drawings, piping and instrumentation diagrams, refrigeration schematics, bills of materials, component schedules and technical specifications
- Define materials, dimensions, tolerances, connections, joining methods, service clearances and assembly requirements
- Develop control sequences, operating envelopes, sensor requirements, alarms, interlocks and protection functions with electrical and controls engineers
- Work with suppliers and manufacturing teams to resolve fabrication issues and improve designs for assembly, maintenance, cost and repeatable production
- Plan prototype testing and instrumentation; compare measured performance against predictions and refine designs
- Prepare commissioning procedures, acceptance criteria and controlled production documentation
- Identify applicable European and US requirements for refrigerants, pressure equipment, product safety, electrical integration, energy efficiency and environmental compliance
- Work with certification specialists and test laboratories to establish product requirements and evidence
- Assess relevant EU F-gas and US EPA Technology Transitions and SNAP requirements for refrigerant systems
Requirements
What you’ll need- An engineering degree in mechanical engineering, thermal engineering, refrigeration or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience
- Strong fundamentals in thermodynamics, heat transfer and fluid mechanics
- Substantial equipment design expertise in dry cooling, compressor-based air conditioning and refrigeration, or both
- Evidence of cooling systems personally designed, supported through fabrication and successfully tested
- Ability to turn calculations into manufacturable designs and complete, accurate engineering documentation
- Experience designing equipment for applicable European and US requirements
- Experience collaborating across mechanical, electrical, controls and manufacturing disciplines
- Proficiency in relevant engineering calculation, equipment selection, simulation and mechanical CAD tools
- Familiarity with REFPROP, Güntner Product Calculator, Ansys Fluent and SolidWorks; equivalent tools welcome
- Understanding of the physics, assumptions, boundary conditions and limitations behind calculations
- Ability to recognize when further validation is needed
