Cryogenics Engineer (f/m/d)

📋 Description

• Develop and build cryogenic thermal/fluids models; simulate and validate designs.
• Use simulation tools to model thermal behavior, ensure cooling, and optimize design.
• Iterate models to assess material behavior at low temperatures with the team.
• Perform sensitivity, optimization, and goal-driven analyses to improve system design.
• Collaborate with Targetry sub-teams to define system requirements and deliver analyses.
• Lead project workstreams from concept to commissioning; mentor junior engineers.

🎯 Requirements

• 3–5 years (or equivalent PhD research) performing integrated thermal and fluids analysis involving cryogenic systems (experience with hydrogen preferred).
• MSc or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Physics, Chemical Engineering, or related discipline.
• Strong background in heat transfer, thermodynamics, and fluid mechanics.
• Proficient in thermal analysis using software (e.g., Thermal Desktop, COMSOL, etc) to anchor the analysis to actual hardware.
• Familiarity with hydrogen systems, vacuum systems, and cryogenic technologies.
• Skilled in instrumentation, sensors, and control logic for temperature, pressure, and flow in cold environments.

🎁 Benefits

• Equal opportunity employer committed to an inclusive environment.
• Pursuant to the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance, Focused Energy will consider applicants with arrest/conviction records.
