Thermal analysis and design take center stage for scientific balloon payloads, precision instruments, and satellite systems at StarSpec Technologies. Work flexibly between remote analysis and on-site collaboration.
As a Thermal Engineer, you will own work packages from requirements through reporting, with thermal engineering as your primary responsibility. Build steady-state and transient models, define environmental cases, and turn predictions into hardware and test decisions. Collaborate with mechanical, optical, electrical, and systems engineers across concurrent projects.
Key Responsibilities
