Stellantis
Overview
The Automotive Cooling System Architect will play a key role within our dynamic team, focusing on the design and validation of thermal management concepts for both conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles and electric/electrified vehicles (xHEV). Your responsibilities will include translating vehicle and propulsion system requirements into specific cooling system and component specifications, generating thermal management concepts, supporting the design team in implementing these concepts, and developing and executing verification and validation testing. You will also contribute to system integration by applying best practices and methodologies such as Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) and Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA).
Responsibilities
Translate vehicle and propulsion system requirements into system-level cooling concepts and component specifications.
Generate thermal management concepts and support the design team in implementing these concepts.
Develop and execute verification and validation testing for cooling systems.
Contribute to system integration by applying CAE and DFMEA methodologies and best practices.
Qualifications Basic Qualifications:
Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Aerospace engineering, or a related degree field
Minimum of 5 years of relevant experience
Minimum of 3 years of experience in automotive engineering, with a focus on designing and releasing cooling system components
Strong knowledge of thermal management and cooling components, including radiators, condensers, fans, pumps, valves, heaters, and related hardware
Solid experience in interpreting CFD and CAE analyses
Good experience with cooling and vehicle-level testing, including data acquisition
General proficiency in CAD design
Preferred Qualifications:
Master of Science Degree in Engineering
Translate and cascade vehicle and propulsion system requirements into system-level requirements and communicate them to sub-system teams
Design thermal system schematics based on vehicle and propulsion system requirements
Lead the implementation of technical solutions, provide recommendations, and contribute to roadmap development for cooling system programs
Ensure component standardization and leverage synergies across global platforms
Deliver cooling system performance scorecards at key gates and reviews in alignment with the PSDP process
Maintain consistent communication with the Thermal Architect team
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure the cooling architecture meets performance, safety, and quality standards, supporting overall vehicle objectives
Work closely with manufacturing, testing, and quality teams to integrate cooling components seamlessly into the vehicle architecture
Take a leadership role in managing supplier relationships, ensuring alignment with project goals and delivery of high-quality components
Drive program milestone achievement by coordinating tasks, resources, and activities within the project timeline
Apply Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) principles to support robust product development and launches
Use software tools such as CATIA V5, Unigraphics NX, Vis Mockup, and TeamCenter to design, visualize, and communicate component designs effectively
Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) tools to perform simulations and analyses, optimizing component designs for efficiency and performance
