Base pay range $55.00/hr - $65.00/hr
Role: Mechanical Design- Datacenter Platform
Work location: San Jose, CA - Bay Area
Background and Meet and Greet: MANDATORY
Job Description: We are seeking a skilled Mechanical Design / PCB layout Contractor to lead the chassis and mechanical system design for a next‑generation datacenter platform. This role involves end‑to‑end mechanical design, integration with electrical and thermal systems, and collaboration across hardware and manufacturing teams to bring a high‑density, scalable system from concept to production.
Key Responsibilities
Chassis & Enclosure Design: Design datacenter‑grade chassis and subcomponents with focus on structural integrity, modularity, and manufacturability. Ensure alignment with standard rack dimensions (e.g., 19" EIA‑310) and service access requirements.
Thermal & Airflow Design: Design and simulate airflow for optimal thermal performance (fans, ducts, baffles). Integrate heat sinks, heat pipes, or liquid cooling solutions as needed. Run CFD simulations and assist in thermal validation.
Power & Cable Management: Optimize layout for efficient cable routing and power subsystem integration. Design brackets and supports for power supplies, connectors, and cabling.
System Integration: Collaborate with EE, systems, and PCB teams for placement and mechanical constraints. Define mounting and mechanical interfaces for PCBs, SSDs, fans, PSUs, etc.
Prototyping & Testing: Support physical prototyping using CNC or 3D printing methods. Coordinate mechanical testing (vibration, shock, drop, and thermal validation).
Compliance & Safety: Ensure mechanical design meets regulatory (UL, CE, RoHS) and safety standards. Design with serviceability, user safety, and EMI/EMC shielding in mind.
Documentation: Generate and maintain 3D CAD models, 2D fabrication drawings, and BOMs. Provide clear, revision‑controlled documentation for fabrication and assembly.
Mandatory Skills
Proven experience designing datacenter or server chassis (2U–6U preferred).
Expertise in CAD tools (SolidWorks, Creo, NX, or equivalent).
Strong background in thermal and structural analysis (CFD, FEA).
Familiarity with rack standards, server packaging, and airflow optimization.
Knowledge of DFM/DFX, rapid prototyping, and sheet metal fabrication.
Excellent communication and cross‑functional collaboration skills.
Optional Skills
Experience with liquid cooling or high‑power thermal solutions.
Familiarity with EMC compliance in mechanical design.
Prior work on high‑density compute, storage, or networking enclosures.
Seniority Level Mid‑Senior level
Employment Type Contract
