Mechanical Design Intern

• Support the complete design and development of Coolant Distribution Units (CDUs), considering factors like how heat moves, fluid flow, sensor placement, cable organization, and how easy they are to manufacture.
• Work closely with core engineering team members, extended internal teams, and industry partners to support CDU product development and sustaining activities.
• Design and develop mechanical components and assemblies for coolant distribution units.
• Build and test CDU prototypes, run experiments, collect data, and refine designs based on the results to achieve the desired thermal and mechanical performance.
• Create detailed engineering documents, reports, and presentations to clearly explain design ideas, test results, and recommendations to internal teams and external stakeholders.
• Use advanced computer simulations to check and improve the performance of our CDU designs.
