Job Description

Overview Thermal Engineer – µCooling at xMEMS Labs About xMEMS Labs Founded in 2018, xMEMS Labs is pioneering a new era in MEMS technology. Our solid-state Sycamore MEMS loudspeakers and µCooling “fan-on-a-chip” devices are redefining what’s possible in audio and thermal management for AI glasses, wearables, smartphones, SSDs, and beyond. We’re growing our µCooling team and looking for a Thermal Engineer passionate about pushing the boundaries of thermal design in compact, high-performance consumer electronics. What You’ll Do Support for characterization and validation of simulation and model data for the µCooling air pump-on-a-chip across multiple product categories (AI glasses, smartphones, SSDs, XR, wearables, datacenter). Characterize airflow, back pressure, and thermal resistance performance in system-level use cases. Collaborate with system architects, electrical engineers, and packaging engineers to integrate µCooling into tight form factors. Develop and execute thermal test protocols (steady-state, transient, and stress conditions) and analyze results to guide design improvements. Work with customers to ensure µCooling devices meet system thermal requirements. Debug system integrations to ensure best performance. Partner with product management and marketing to translate thermal performance into end-user value stories. What We’re Looking For B.S./M.S. in Mechanical Engineering, Thermal Engineering, or related field. 3–7 years’ experience in thermal design and analysis for consumer electronics, semiconductors, or datacenter systems. Strong knowledge of heat transfer, fluid dynamics, and thermodynamics. Hands-on experience with thermal characterization and fixture building using 3D printing and machining. Familiarity with CFD modeling, airflow characterization, and thermal measurement techniques using instruments and measurement tools. Use of thermocouples, thermistors, heaters, and other fixtures to mockup in-house and customer designs. Ability to thrive in a fast-paced startup environment and work cross-functionally. Bonus: Experience with cooling of AI/Edge devices , compact fans, vapor chambers, or MEMS-based cooling. Why Join Us? At xMEMS, you’ll be part of a team creating industry-first solid-state technologies shaping the future of consumer electronics. This is your chance to take part in the next revolution in thermal management , delivering thinner, lighter, and higher-performing devices to millions of users worldwide.
