## Description

This role is dedicated to the development and maintenance of Python-based performance modeling tools for data center cooling systems. You will spend your time building accurate models for critical equipment including pumps, heat exchangers, and chillers-to predict how these components perform under various environmental conditions. You will collaborate closely with software and electrical teams to integrate these cooling models into larger, multidisciplinary simulation tools. A key part of your day involves automating data analysis and visualization workflows, turning complex simulation results into clear guidance for product design. You are not just a programmer; you are a mechanical expert who applies heat transfer and fluid mechanics fundamentals to ensure that simulation results are physically grounded and accurate.
