Join our Team

We are seeking a talented Master's student to conduct a research thesis on optimizing flow dynamics and acoustic performance of a baseband fan tray system. This role combines computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation with experimental prototype testing, offering hands-on experience in thermal and acoustic engineering.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and validate CFD models such as (ANSYS Fluent / PowerFlow CFD) to simulate the flow field and noise generation in the fan tray
  • Conduct parametric studies to identify design improvements for flow efficiency and noise reduction
  • Design, build, and test physical prototypes based on CFD predictions
  • Perform acoustic and thermal measurements on prototypes
  • Compare simulation results with experimental data and iterate on designs
  • Document findings and prepare thesis with recommendations for further production
  • Collaborate with engineering team to ensure technical feasibility

Required Skills and Qualifications

  • Enrolled in or recently admitted to a Master's program in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or related field
  • Strong foundation in fluid mechanics and thermodynamics
  • Experience or willingness to quickly learn CFD tools and techniques
  • Basic knowledge of CAD tools and handling(e.g., Creo, SpaceClaim)
  • Experience with experimental testing and data analysis
  • Solid technical writing and communication abilities
  • Problem-solving mindset with attention to detail

Preferred Qualifications

  • Previous CFD project experience
  • Familiarity with acoustic simulation or noise measurement techniques
  • Experience with design optimization methodology
  • Programming skills (Python, MATLAB) for post-processing

What We Offer

Mentorship from experienced engineers, access to industry-standard tools, and the opportunity to contribute to a real product development cycle.
