We get up every day, roll up our sleeves and build a better world -- together. At Ford, we’re all a part of something bigger than ourselves. Are you ready to change the way the world moves?</p>\n<p>Ford’s Electric Vehicles, Digital and Design (EVDD) team is charged with delivering the company’s vision of a fully electric transportation future. EVDD is customer-obsessed, entrepreneurial, and data-driven and is dedicated to delivering industry-leading customer experience for electric vehicle buyers and owners.</p>\n<p>Join our dynamic and agile team pioneering Ford&#39;s EV future. As a Thermal Systems Engineer focused on the coolant subsystem, you will be responsible for the &#39;circulatory system&#39; of our electric passenger vehicles. Your work is vital to vehicle safety, longevity, and efficiency, as you design the systems that regulate the temperature of the high-voltage (HV) battery, drive units, power electronics, and other components. You will balance complex trade-offs between system performance, energy consumption, and cost to ensure peak performance in all use cases.</p>\n<p><strong>Responsibilities</strong></p>\n<p>You will lead the design, development, and integration of fluid-based thermal management loops.</p>\n<p>Lead the architecture, design, and development of coolant subsystems that interact with HV battery, drive unit, power electronics, refrigeration, and HVAC components.</p>\n<p>Define detailed thermal and hydraulic performance specifications for individual components (e.g., pumps, valves, heat exchangers, fans, hoses, degas bottles, etc.) within the coolant subsystem.</p>\n<p>Work with application engineers to evaluate and select appropriate components based on performance requirements, cost, packaging constraints, and reliability targets.</p>\n<p>Develop, calibrate, and maintain high-fidelity plant models that accurately simulate thermal and hydraulic behavior of the subsystem&#39;s components.</p>\n<p>Conduct detailed thermal and fluidic analysis to ensure components meet specified performance targets under various operating conditions.</p>\n<p>Collaborate with test engineers to define and execute component and subsystem characterization tests to validate and refine plant models.</p>\n<p>Work closely with the Design Engineers to ensure component designs meet thermal and mechanical requirements, and with the Controls Engineer who will use the plant models for algorithm development.</p>\n<p>Ensure traceability between high-level system requirements and detailed component specifications.</p>\n<p><strong>Qualifications</strong></p>\n<p>You&#39;ll have...</p>\n<p>Bachelor&#39;s or equivalent combination of relevant education and experience.</p>\n<p>3+ years of experience in thermal system design or component engineering.</p>\n<p>Strong understanding of thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid dynamics principles.</p>\n<p>Experience with physical system modeling and simulation tools (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink, GT-SUITE, etc.).</p>\n<p>Proficiency in Python or similar programming languages for model development.</p>\n<p>Even better, you may have...</p>\n<p>Master&#39;s or Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering or related engineering discipline.</p>\n<p>Experience with EV thermal management systems.</p>\n<p>Familiarity with vehicle communication protocols (CAN, LIN) for controlling smart pumps and valves.</p>\n<p>Strong collaborative skills to work across hardware and software teams in a fast-paced EV development environment.</p>\n<p>You may not check every box, or your experience may look a little different from what we&#39;ve outlined, but if you think you can bring value to Ford Motor Company, we encourage you to apply!</p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:24px;font-size:13px;color:#666;\">XML job scraping automation by <a href=\"https://yubhub.co\">YubHub</a></p>","url":"https://yubhub.co/jobs/job_8d53bfff-233","directApply":true,"hiringOrganization":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Ford Motor Company","sameAs":"https://www.ford.com/","logo":"https://logos.yubhub.co/ford.com.png"},"x-apply-url":"https://efds.fa.em5.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/CandidateExperience/en/sites/CX_1/job/57423","x-work-arrangement":"hybrid","x-experience-level":"mid","x-job-type":"full-time","x-salary-range":"A range of salary grades 6-8","x-skills-required":["thermal system design","component engineering","thermodynamics","heat transfer","fluid dynamics","physical system modeling","simulation tools","Python","MATLAB/Simulink","GT-SUITE"],"x-skills-preferred":[],"datePosted":"2026-04-24T12:23:29.533Z","jobLocation":{"@type":"Place","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressLocality":"Long Beach"}},"employmentType":"FULL_TIME","occupationalCategory":"Engineering","industry":"Automotive","skills":"thermal system design, component engineering, thermodynamics, heat transfer, fluid dynamics, physical system modeling, simulation tools, Python, MATLAB/Simulink, GT-SUITE"}]}
