Build cooling tech that makes solar meaningfully more efficient
Breeze Solar is developing next-generation cooling solutions to improve the efficiency and lifespan of photovoltaic systems. We’re looking for a mechanical engineer with strong CFD,
structural analysis, and CAD expertise to lead the simulation and design work behind our cooling technology.
**The Role**
You will design, model, and simulate cooling solutions for solar panels end-to-end — from CAD
geometry through CFD and structural analysis to validated prototype design. You will also play a
key role in protecting our intellectual property by assisting with the patenting of the product.
Your work will directly drive prototype iteration and product decisions.
**Responsibilities**
– Design cooling solution geometries in CAD and iterate on them based on simulation results
– Build and run CFD simulations (steady-state and transient) of airflow and heat transfer around
PV modules
– Model conjugate heat transfer between panels, cooling media, and ambient environment
– Perform structural analysis (FEA) of the cooling solution, including coupled thermal-structural
and wind/load cases
– Develop and validate thermal and structural models against experimental data
– Assist with patenting the product: contribute to invention disclosures, technical drawings, and
descriptions, and collaborate with patent counsel during prosecution
– Collaborate with the hardware team on prototype design, manufacturing, and testing
**Requirements**
– MSc or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field
– 3+ years of hands-on CFD experience (ANSYS Fluent, STAR-CCM+, OpenFOAM, or similar)
– Proven expertise in CAD design (SolidWorks, CATIA, Siemens NX, Fusion 360, or similar)
– Strong experience with FEA and structural analysis, including coupled thermal-structural
simulations
– Strong fundamentals in heat transfer, fluid dynamics, and turbulence modeling
– Experience with meshing, solver setup, and post-processing
– Ability to validate simulations against physical test data
– Background in solar/PV thermal management
– Scripting (Python, MATLAB) for automation and post-processing
**What We Offer**
– Competitive salary and equity
– Fully remote position
Breeze Solar – Open Position
– Direct ownership of a high-impact technical problem, including named inventorship on resulting
patents
– Collaborative team working on meaningful climate technology
