Support implementation of thermal control designs through selection and procurement of thermal hardware, oversight of hardware fabrication, and integration of hardware into larger assemblies. Quantify required thermal resources and partner with other subsystem engineers to establish interface agreements.Ĭonduct complex design and thermal analyses to show acceptable margins for bounding nominal and fault mission conditions. Identify viable thermal designs, conduct trade studies and establishing thermal requirements, hardware specifications, and installation instructions. Analyses include closed-form analytical methods as well as computational methods. Designs include hardware and control systems to manage system temperatures within safe operating ranges through the use of radiation, conduction, convection, single- and two-phase heat transfer methods. Perform the thermal design and analysis of spacecraft and space-based instruments applying the best practices, latest research, and incorporating qualified technologies. This unique opportunity is part of the Mechanical Systems Engineering, Fabrication and Test Division which engages in research, technology development, and the creation of advanced mechanical, thermal, propulsion, and electronic packaging systems with expertise that spans the full breath of mechanical disciplines and is applied from architectural concept development through operations.Īs a Thermal Engineer, you will be working for JPL's Propulsion, Thermal and Materials Engineering Section which provides leadership and distinct world-class expertise in a wide range of technologies and technical discipline areas of chemical and electrical propulsion, thermal, materials, contamination control, analytical chemistry, geochemical instruments, physics-based modeling, and multiphase flow.Ī Thermal Engineer investigates, plans, designs and develops mechanical products and systems such as spacecraft, instruments, robots, packaged electronics, controls, engines, and machines, and mechanical, thermal, hydraulic, propulsion, or heat transfer systems for the production, transmission, measurement, and use of energy. Located in Pasadena, California, JPL has a campus-like environment situated on 177 acres in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains and offers a work environment unlike any other: we inspire passion, foster innovation, build collaboration, and reward excellence. If you’re driven to discover, create, and inspire something that lasts a lifetime and beyond, you’re ready for JPL. Your mission-your opportunity-is to seek out the answers that bring us one step closer. We build upon ideas that have guided generations, then share our discoveries to inspire generations to come. We ask the biggest questions, then search the universe for answers-literally. New ideas are all around us, but only a few will change the world.
