Job Description


Responsibilities to Anticipate for this role:
  • Develop LRU thermal model from CAD model, calculate PWB thermal conductivity, run conjugate steady state or transient thermal analyses as needed, run multiple thermal case studies, identify component level thermal margin estimation. 
  • Perform early identification of over temperature components to guide chassis design, minimize thermal resistance, and optimize heat spreading. 
  • Perform gap analysis for thermal interface materials to circuit board to maximize heat transfer and minimize bending loads. 
  • Create thermal models of LRU’s that show temperature in 3-dimensional space and in time when transient analysis is appropriate.
  • Compare dissimilar shock and vibration profiles and envelope multiple shock and vibration profiles to develop equivalent damage profiles to reduce the number of tests or reduce test time. 
  • Run modal analysis on LRU components and LRU on isolators.  Perform sway estimates of concept and existing LRUs on multiple isolators. 
  • Calculate design margin for solder joint failure for circuit card assemblies during shock and vibration events.
  • High proficiency in interpretation and application of ASME Y 14.5M-2009.
