Lead chassis and mechanical system design for next-generation datacenter platforms.

This role is on-site.

Responsibilities

  • Design datacenter-grade chassis and subcomponents, ensuring structural integrity, modularity, and manufacturability.
  • Simulate airflow using CFD to optimize thermal performance via fans, ducts, baffles, and cooling solutions.
  • Optimize layouts for cable routing, power subsystem integration, and component mounting.
  • Collaborate with electrical and systems teams to define mechanical interfaces for PCBs, SSDs, and PSUs.
  • Support physical prototyping via CNC or 3D printing and coordinate vibration, shock, and thermal testing.

Required Skills

  • 5+ years of experience designing datacenter or server chassis (2U–6U preferred).
  • Proficiency in CAD tools: SolidWorks, Creo, or NX.
  • Strong background in thermal and structural analysis, including CFD and FEA.
  • Knowledge of DFM/DFX, rapid prototyping, and sheet metal fabrication.
  • Familiarity with rack standards, server packaging, and airflow optimization.
  • Bachelor's degree in a relevant engineering field.
  • Experience ensuring designs meet regulatory standards like UL, CE, and RoHS.

Preferred Skills

  • Experience with liquid cooling or high-power thermal solutions.
  • Familiarity with EMC compliance in mechanical design.
  • Prior work on high-density compute, storage, or networking enclosures.
