The role
Karman Industries is seeking a highly motivated Senior Mechanical Engineer to lead the design and development of the next generation of electric heat pumps for industrial process heat electrification. The successful candidate will own the design, analysis, and qualification of mechanical and thermal systems for the Thermal01 heat pump and future product lines.
This role requires broad technical ownership spanning structural, thermal, and turbomachinery hardware.
