  • Proficiency in CAD tools such as Creo, SolidWorks, or NX.
  • Knowledge of thermal and structural analysis methods.
  • Experience conducting tolerance analysis.
  • Hands-on approach with the ability to debug and solve problems in lab and production environments.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the end-to-end design and development of mechanical systems for AI and high-performance computing platforms.
  • Translate product requirements into practical, scalable mechanical designs that meet performance, reliability, and cost goals.
  • Design and improve server chassis and compute platforms, focusing on cooling, serviceability, and usability.
  • Partner with electrical and thermal teams to analyze and improve system performance.
  • Collaborate with suppliers and manufacturing partners to drive design-for-manufacture and smooth production ramp.
