• Our portfolio includes adapter cards, switches, cables, and software, all designed to maximize data center performance with industry-leading bandwidth, latency, and scalability.
• We serve a wide range of markets, including high-performance computing (HPC), enterprise, cloud, and Web 2.0 environments.
• Our mission is to stay ahead of the market by delivering breakthrough technologies that accelerate data processing and unlock new possibilities.
• Our Ethernet solutions are also tailored for data-intensive industries such as Media & Entertainment and other domains requiring advanced DataStream and TCP/IP acceleration.
• What You’ll Be Doing Lead simulation-driven R&D efforts for next-generation data center hardware.
• Perform advanced mechanical, structural, thermal, and fluid (CFD) simulations to drive design optimization.
• Develop and execute experimental setups to validate simulation models through empirical testing.
• Correlate simulation results with physical test data to improve model fidelity and refine boundary conditions.
• Investigate reliability issues and conduct failure analyses to support robust product development.
• Collaborate with cross-functional design teams while contributing hands-on to mechanical design activities.
• What We Need to See B.Sc.
• in Mechanical Engineering or higher (M.Sc.
• 6+ years of relevant experience in an R&D environment.
• Strong expertise in finite element analysis (FEA), thermal analysis, and computational fluid dynamics (CFD).
• Proven experience correlating simulation results with physical testing to enhance model accuracy.
• Deep proficiency with simulation tools such as Ansys (Icepak, Workbench, Mechanical, Fluent) and MATLAB.
• Demonstrated ability to influence design decisions early through analytical “back-of-the-envelope” calculations and rapid modeling.
• Proficiency in 3D CAD tools (Creo preferred).
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English and Hebrew.
• Self-driven, highly motivated, and capable of working both independently and as part of a team.
• Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a dynamic, cross-functional environment.
• Ways to Stand Out from the Crowd Expertise in electronics cooling and packaging, including thermal interface materials (TIMs), heat sink optimization, and liquid cooling systems (cold plates, manifolds, CDUs).
• Strong understanding of structural dynamics, including shock and vibration standards for high-density server environments.
• Advanced CAD capabilities (e.g., Creo, SolidWorks, NX), including model preparation for simulation (simplification, defeaturing, mid-surfacing).
• Background in global enterprise telecommunications organizations and experience developing and implementing new design methodologies.
• Familiarity with AI tools for mechanical design, simulation, and debugging.
• We do not discriminate based on race, religion, color, national origin, sex, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability.
• We provide reasonable accommodations throughout the application and employment process.
