Job Summary

Poly HP is seeking a Subject Matter Expert in thermal system design (EFD / CFD). This engineer will lead the development of thermal solutions for new product offerings in the HP Poly Hybrid Solutions Video product portfolio.

As a member of the Innovation and Architecture engineering team, you will be responsible for the thermal design of our videoconferencing equipment, including but not limited to : Video Bars, Speaker Bars, Webcams, Compute Systems, and MPTZ Cameras.

The successful candidate must have a proven track-record as an individual contributor in subsystem modeling as well as full system EFD / CFD.

Knowledge of MCAD systems and thermal sims integration is a must. This role is responsible for leading multiple project teams consisting of mechanical hardware engineers and internal / outsourced development partners.

The role manages design, resources, schedules, and costs across multiple ongoing projects, and builds relationships with development partners.

The role brings domain-specific expertise, providing leadership and mechanical / thermal perspective to cross-organization projects.

The role evaluates designs for compliance with technology and drives innovation and integration of new technologies into projects.

What you'll do :

• Lead product manager, electrical, and mechanical architects with thermal solution recommendations on developing new design proposals so that the first design intent follows best practices, first principles and standard methodologies.
• Propose new physical models, components, or subsystems outside the scope of standard convection and forced air solutions.
• Actively engage on new mechanical designs to port MCAD to EFD / CFD tools feeding back basic model parameter needed for seamless integration.
• Own and grow the existing PTC database of thermal specific parts and parameters incorporating open source and HP internal repositories. (Creo and Windchill)
• Validate approaches with through prototype builds and testing.
• Manages and expands relationships with internal and outsourced development partners on mechanical and thermal design and development.
• Reviews and evaluates designs and project activities for compliance with technology and development guidelines and standards;
