Full job description
We’re looking for people who put their innovation to work to advance our success – and their own. Join an organization that ensures a more secure world through connecting and protecting our customers with inventive electrical solutions.
Key role responsibilities
Product Development & Technical Leadership: Lead system-level design and development for refrigeration and air-conditioning products, defining product architecture and aligning solutions with customer requirements, regulatory standards, and business objectives.
Cross-Functional Execution: Partner with designers, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, firmware engineers, product management, manufacturing, and quality teams to develop and launch high-quality air conditioning, chiller, heat exchanger, and filter fan products.
Technology Innovation: Drive research and development of vapor-compression systems, explore emerging technologies, and implement innovative design approaches that influence the broader technology roadmap.
Analysis, Simulation & Validation: Provide technical direction for calculations, analyses, simulations, specifications, and validation strategies, including test planning and qualification to internal, industry, and regulatory standards.
Engineering Excellence: Mentor early- and mid-career engineers, strengthen cross-functional collaboration, and contribute to engineering standards, best practices, and process improvements that enhance efficiency, quality, and product scalability.
qualifications and experience
Education & Experience: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related discipline, with 10+ years of HVACR industry experience focused on system-level design and product development for refrigeration and air-conditioning systems.
Refrigeration System Design: Proven expertise in fixed- and variable-speed vapor-compression systems, including system architecture, component selection, and performance optimization.
Heat Exchanger & Thermal Systems: Strong working knowledge of tube-fin, microchannel, and plate heat exchangers, including liquid-to-air and liquid-to-liquid applications and selection methodologies.
Testing, Validation & Controls: Extensive hands-on experience in HVACR performance and reliability testing, including capacity validation, COP/EER evaluation, transient behavior, and long-duration reliability testing under varied operating conditions. Strong understanding of component- and system-level validation, including compressor modulation, expansion devices, fan control, protection logic, and their impact on stability, efficiency, and operational robustness.
Standards, Tools & Simulation: In-depth knowledge of UL, ASHRAE, AHRI, and other refrigeration and air-conditioning standards. Hands-on experience with SolidWorks or similar CAD tools for HVAC/refrigeration component and system modeling; refrigeration system modeling and simulation experience is preferred.
Leadership & Communication: Demonstrated ability to lead technical topics across cross-functional teams, influence decisions across multiple functions, solve complex and ambiguous technical challenges, and communicate effectively with both technical and business stakeholders.
