Italy Contract Type: Permanent Division:
Aerospace & Defence Level of experience:
Junior RINA is currently recruiting for a
Thermal Analysis Engineer
to join its office in Roma within the
Aerospace & Defence
Division. Overview
Mission We are looking for a Thermal Analysis Engineer to support defense-sector programs in Rome. The selected candidate will focus on the analysis and development of thermal solutions for complex assemblies, ensuring compliance with military standards and project requirements. Activities
Plan and perform steady-state and transient thermal analyses on complex mechanical assemblies (e.g., shelters, racks, integrated units). Define thermal requirements and specifications, boundary conditions, load cases, and acceptance criteria. Build, calibrate, and validate thermal models (e.g., conduction, convection—forced/natural—, radiation) using one of the following software: Ansys Suite, FloTHERM, or FloEFD. Propose and assess thermal mitigation solutions (e.g., heat sinks, TIMs, ventilation/airflow strategies, insulation). Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to support environmental qualification activities in accordance with applicable MIL standards. Document results, assumptions, and recommendations; support design reviews and the implementation of approved changes. Main Responsibilities
Execute and report thermal simulations for complex assemblies. Define technical specifications and acceptance criteria related to thermal performance and compliance. Ensure adherence to military environmental standards (MIL) relevant to thermal performance. Use Ansys Suite, FloTHERM, or FloEFD for model setup, meshing (thermal), solution, and post-processing. Provide clear, decision-oriented documentation and participate in design reviews. Coordinate with design teams to implement thermal recommendations into CAD and product baselines. Expertise
Master’s degree in Mechanical or Aeronautical Engineering. Minimum 3 years’ experience in thermal analysis and thermomechanical solution development for complex assemblies. Knowledge of MIL standards applicable to environmental qualification in the defense domain. Proficiency in at least one simulation software: Ansys Suite, FloTHERM, or FloEFD. Familiarity with PLM systems (e.g., Windchill) and CAD tools (CREO, CATIA) is considered a plus. Strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and ability to communicate technical results to nonspecialists. #LI-FT1 RINA is a multinational company providing a wide range of services in the energy, marine, certification, infrastructure & mobility, industry, research & development sectors. Our business model covers the full process of project development, from concept to completion. At RINA, we endeavor to create a work environment where every single person is valued and encouraged to develop new ideas. We provide equal employment opportunities and are committed to creating a workplace where everyone feels respected and safe from discrimination or harassment of any kind. We are also compliant to the Italian Law n. 68/99.
