Job Description
Join Axon and be a Force for Good.
At Axon were on a mission to Protect Life. Were explorers pursuing societys most critical safety and justice issues with our ecosystem of devices and cloud software. Like our products we work better together. We connect with candor and care seeking out diverse perspectives from our customers communities and each other.
Life at Axon is fastpaced challenging and meaningful. Here youll take ownership and drive real change. Constantly grow as you work hard for a mission that matters at a company where you matter.
of heat transfer fluid mechanics and electronics cooling.
- Develop and validate CFD and thermal simulation models to assist in the design and enhancement of Axon products focusing on electronics cooling.
- Recommend design modifications based on steadystate and transient thermal simulation results optimizing the placement of electronic components for improved thermal performance.
- Apply engineering principles of heat transfer fluid mechanics and thermodynamics to establish best practices for designing enclosures and thermal management systems.
- Troubleshoot and resolve thermal and airflowrelated issues in both new and existing products using empirical data and commercial CFD software (preferably Siemens FloEFD or FloTherm).
- Provide technical guidance and support to the engineering team assisting in thermal optimization through the use of CFD modeling and experimental data.
- Optimize airflow speed volume and flow paths to meet specific customer and component requirements.
- Collaborate with crossfunctional teams including design testing and reliability to define input requirements and provide thermal support in electronic component placement.
- Produce detailed thermal simulation reports and experimental test results presenting findings and design recommendations to stakeholders.
- Assist in developing test plans for thermal validation including thermocouple placement based on simulation data.
- Work closely with external chip manufacturers to gather input data and improve the accuracy of thermal simulation models balancing accuracy with delivery timelines.
- Develop creative solutions to reduce modeling time while maintaining the balance between speed and accuracy in simulation work.
- Continuously analyze and solve complex thermal issues in a fastpaced and dynamic engineering environment.
- Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering (Masters preferred) with at least 6 years of experience in thermal simulations within the consumer electronics industry.
- Proficiency in commercial CFD software (FloEFD or FloTherm preferred).
- Strong foundational knowledge in heat transfer thermodynamics fluid mechanics and numerical methods (Finite Volume and Finite Element Methods).
