We are currently seeking a talented and team-oriented Senior Thermal Engineer to work on simulating the effect of thermal loads on laser optics and optics mounts as well as modelling the interaction of a laser beam with metal powder and designing experiments to prove the simulations.

General Description: Seurat Technologies is seeking a talented and self-motivated senior thermal Engineer. For all candidates, expertise in computational fluid dynamics and finite element analysis is required. The ideal candidate demonstrates expert analytical and possibly hands-on experience in dealing with thermal effects caused by high power laser beams passing through optical elements and interacting with mechanical systems. Experience in modelling laser-matter interaction where the matter (metals) absorbs laser light and transforms it into heat and melts metal powder into a pool is also very valuable for this position. 

Job Duties:

• Simulate the thermal loads on optics and optical mounts in a complex high power optical system.
• Simulate the effect of laser-matter interaction with metal powder and simulating the geometry of the liquid pool of metal and its interaction with the underlying solid metal.
• Strong communications skills, both verbal and written.
• Must be able to work effectively with multidisciplinary teams.

Skills/Qualifications:

• 4+ years of experience in related thermal modeling fields, with proficiency with Ansys Fluent, Ansys Mechanical.
• Proficient with computational fluid dynamics (Ansys CFD).
• Knowledge of Solidworks is a big plus.
• Knowledge of Material Science is a plus.
• Knowledge of SigFit or similar software is a plus.
• Experience in a manufacturing environment is a plus.

Education/Experience:

• MS in Mechanical Engineering, Physics, Optics or other related fields.

Travel:
