At Raytheon, we know and value the strategic and tactical talents that only veterans can offer. Our military veterans work across all disciplines, lead our businesses, engineer our products, and lead our supply chain. As a US military veteran, you are uniquely qualified to work at Raytheon.
What you'd do
- Perform high‑fidelity and reduced‑order computational modeling of single‑ and two‑phase flows, including interfacial physics, phase change, and transient behavior
- Develop and integrate multi‑physics simulations coupling thermal, fluid, structural, and thermomechanical responses
- Create advanced computational cooling strategies for high‑heat‑flux electronics using microchannels, jet impingement, passive spreaders, heterogeneous integration, and phase‑change materials
- Conduct design‑space exploration using machine learning, AI‑assisted modeling, uncertainty quantification, and other advanced optimization techniques
- Perform parametric and topology optimization of thermal components such as heat sinks, cold plates, heat exchangers, and integrated flow channels
- Model novel systems for next‑generation engines, space propulsion, undersea propulsion, waste‑heat recovery, power generation, and cryogenic cooling
- Predict device reliability using thermomechanical modeling
- Support (as a secondary responsibility) experimental efforts such as thermal testing, two‑phase flow loops, additively manufactured coupon evaluation, interface characterization, and system demonstrations
What they want
- Minimum a Master’s degree Mechanical, Aerospace, Chemical, or Nuclear Engineering and minimum 3 years experience
- or Ph.D. in Mechanical, Aerospace, Chemical, or Nuclear Engineering and no formal experience
- Minimum 1 year research experience in Heat Transfer or Thermodynamics
- Strong analytical modeling and programming skills
- General understanding of FEA and CFD methods
- Demonstrated experience publishing or presenting technical research
- Exceptional computational modeling capability in multi‑physics, multi‑phase, and interfacial phenomena
- Demonstrated ability to model complex geometry and highly coupled physical systems
- Ability to manage uncertainty, formulate problems from ill-defined needs, and identify when additional SME expertise is required
- Excellent communication skills and ability to foster strong technical collaborations
