This role will also lead advancement of Thermo King's system modeling capabilities, working in collaboration with global Engineering teams.

Core Job Responsibilities (others may be added):

• Plan, execute and supervise simulations using credible system and component models of appropriate fidelity. Provide guidance for decision-making. Advise and collaborate with product platform, controls, component, test, data science, component vendors and other stakeholders throughout model lifecycle.
• Working with global teams, external partners and key stakeholders, prioritize and lead initiatives for modeling capability improvement aligned with product roadmap and business needs.
• Accelerate and mature application and impact of Model-Based Systems Engineering to product development.
• Be an enthusiastic advocate of model-driven engineering. Stay current with emerging trends and advancements. Develop into a recognized technical contributor and leader.
• 10% overnight travel is anticipated.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's Degree in Engineering and at least 2 years of experience with R&D, modeling and/or testing of refrigeration or related physical systems is required.
• Master's Degree or PhD in Engineering is preferred.

Key competencies

• Strong grasp of modeling (mathematically describing) and analyzing refrigeration and/or related physical systems, both at the system and component level are required.
• Experience and comfort with bridging and integrating multiple subsystems, physics domains, tools, and varying model detail/fidelity at the system level is required, or the desire and demonstrated ability to learn quickly.
• Understanding of systems engineering and MBSE principles is required, or the desire and ability to learn and lead growth in this area. Experience with the formal use of model-based languages (e.g., SysML) to support key system engineering activities in product development is a strong plus.
• Experience with executing and/or leading system model development and related deliverables for large product development projects, involving close coordination with multiple stakeholder and support teams, is required, or the desire and demonstrated ability to learn quickly.
• Experience with common industry standard physics-based modeling tools like Dymola/Modelica (preferred), Simscape, Amesim, GT Suite, or EES, and commonly used numerical methods and related modeling processes, is required, or the demonstrated ability to learn quickly.
• Experience with common scientific computing tools and languages for preprocessing, postprocessing, analysis, and automation activities, such as MATLAB, R, Python, or Julia is required.
• Excellent communication, teamwork and time management skills are required.
• Experience with modern controls principles, controls modeling, and Simulink is a plus.
