Thermo-Mechanical Engineer II
Antares, Los Angeles
The role
As the Thermal-Mechanical Engineer for Integration of the Power Conversion System (PCS), you will own how heat moves through the Power Conversion System, including the thermal budget and its impact on hardware over time. Your scope runs from the thermal energy budget of the whole system down to the insulation on a single hot-section joint. You will develop the heat rejection and cold-sink architecture that closes the cycle, size and integrate the recuperator, define the thermal configuration of the hot section (insulation, heat-loss budget, surface temperatures, and personnel protection), and hold the thermal interfaces and transient requirements against the major PCS components, the reactor, and the safety systems.
