Thermal Systems Technical Documentation Engineer

Responsibilities

• Lead the drafting, editing, and continuous improvement of general equipment documentation, specifically comprehensive Installation, Operation, and Maintenance (IOM) manuals for advanced thermal management infrastructure.
• Develop, establish, and optimize structured documentation workflows, including the creation, review, and management of standardized engineering submittal packages for customer approval and contractor use.
• Develop and refine precise Sequence of Operations (SOO) documents.
• Analyze heat transfer and energy conversion components—including advanced heat exchanger designs, refrigeration systems, and heat pumps—to accurately describe their functionality in user‑facing support documents.
• Independently develop, review, and edit comprehensive project and customer reports. Maintain clear visibility over timelines, deliverables, and project milestones using collaborative project management platforms.
• Work closely with the R&D and product development teams to extract technical specifications and utilize in‑house documentation tools to support continuous product optimization.

Requirements

• Minimum: Bachelor’s degree in engineering.
• Preferred: Degree in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related thermal sciences field.
• 5+ years of experience in mechanical engineering, refrigeration, thermal management, HVAC, or a related field.
• Theoretical Refrigeration (Essential): Extensive foundational knowledge of refrigeration cycles, heat transfer, and energy conversion systems is strictly required to create quality support documents.
• Fluid Dynamics: Deep familiarity with single‑phase and two‑phase heat transfer mechanisms is highly valued.
• Data Center Infrastructure: Functional knowledge of modern data center cooling topologies, including direct‑to‑chip liquid cooling, immersion systems, and liquid‑to‑air and liquid‑to‑liquid heat rejection, is highly advantageous.
• Exceptional technical writing and communication skills, with a proven track record of authoring clear, concise engineering documentation, manuals, and customer‑facing reports.
• Proven ability to independently master new engineering specifications, product updates, or internal platforms and rapidly apply them to active documentation projects.
• Strong interpersonal skills to work effectively within multidisciplinary teams to gather information, combined with a rigorous commitment to documentation accuracy and clarity.
