Job Title: Thermal Test Engineer
Location: Eindhoven, Netherlands (On-site)
-The specific projects will be:
-Monviso Thermal Characterization Tests
-SBC Thermal Characterization Tests
About the Role:
We are seeking a highly motivated and detail-oriented Thermal Test Engineer to join our Hardware R&D team. You will work closely with our Mechanical and Thermal Design Lead to validate the thermal performance of AI hardware products, including custom silicon modules, heat spreaders, heat sinks, and active/passive cooling solutions.
Responsibilities:
-Design and execute thermal test plans for components, PCBs, and system-level assemblies.
-Operate and maintain thermal testing equipment (e.g., environmental chambers-ESPEC, thermocouples, data loggers, IR cameras, ).
-Collect, analyze, and report thermal test data with detailed documentation.
-Support validation of simulation results (CFD, FloEFD) through physical testing.
-Collaborate with mechanical/hardware design, electrical, and packaging teams to optimize thermal performance.
-Participate in root cause analysis for thermal issues and propose corrective actions.
-Ensure test processes comply with safety and industry standards.
Required Qualifications:
-Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Thermal Engineering, or related field.
-Minimum 2–4 years of hands-on experience in thermal testing (preferably in electronics or semiconductor industry).
-Familiarity with thermal measurement tools (IR camera, thermocouple systems, Data Acquisition Systems-DAQs).
-Experience in setting up and running thermal cycling, stress, and reliability tests.
-Strong data analysis and reporting skills using Python, MATLAB, or Excel.
-Working knowledge of thermal simulation tools (e.g., FloEFD, ANSYS Icepak) is a plus.
-Good communication and documentation skills in English.
Preferred Skills:
-Experience with GPU, CPU, or SoC thermal validation.
-Knowledge of JEDEC or IPC test standards (e.g., JESD51 series).
