Reporting to the VP, Infrastructure, the Thermal and Electrical Engineer will be responsible for the definition of the product roadmap, and the entire lifecycle of the electrical, thermal, and cooling system development process for mining data center operations, ASIC mining rigs and liquid cooling systems. This role compasses the product life cycles from concept and testing to execution and product revisions.

This is a rare invitation to join a small, highly professional entrepreneurial group, with the backing of the most established player in the fast-growing crypto space.

PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES: The successful individual will perform thermal analysis, test processes, monitor system performances and identify areas that can be improved for greater efficiency. The individual will work very closely with our growing engineering team, technology providers and will have the opportunity to learn about a variety of new technologies that will shape the mining datacenter industry for decades to come. We are looking for a driven individual that is passionate about this profession and wants to be a team member on North America’s top blockchain mining infrastructure provider providing innovation for liquid cooling for mining datacenters and high-performance computing.

WHAT YOU WILL DO:

• Conceptual designs of Immersion Cooling Systems such as tubs, plumbing and coolers for blockchain mining, specifically with dry cooling and water-cooling configurations, for datacenter and container applications.
• Develop scale model systems to prototype conceptual designs.
• Help define Foundry Digital (FD) roadmap for container, cooling, and electrical products for blockchain mining datacenters.
• Manage pressure loss simulation of cooling systems and optimize for efficiency.
• Design and creates documentation such as PI&D.
• Design testing procedures and control equipment to accurately assess products and identify areas that require modification for further testing.
• Work with vendors and partners to plan, design, and build prototype.
• Collaborate with the engineering team and external consultants on manufacturing designs for datacenters.
• Responsible for the calculations and simulations including heat transfer, resistance and CFD.
• Oversee all aspect of production and develops a manufacturing selection process.
• Evaluate cost, feasibility, implementation, and material optimization.
• Benchmark and analyze competitive immersion cooling systems and immersion fluids.
• Work with ASIC providers to design and implement direct cooling (waterblock) systems as a companion product to FD Immersion Products.
• Track and report on changes and industry innovation for cooling, electrical and related datacenter trends.
• Represent FD in HPC and mining industry standards associations.
• Represent FD in industry conferences.

Minimum Qualifications; Knowledge, Skills and Abilities:

• Bachelor’s degree/Diploma/Higher Diploma in Thermodynamics/Mechanical/Electrical Engineering and/or similar fields.
