About the role

Intern/Co-op position in Thermal Engineering at AMD focused on development and validation of advanced cooling technologies for AI, HPC, and data center platforms. Onsite full-time role with multiple 2027 term options (Spring/Summer Co-op, Summer Internship, Summer/Fall Co-op).

Responsibilities

  • Thermal and hydraulic characterization of cooling solutions (cold plates, manifolds, heat exchangers, coolant loops, rack-level cooling)
  • Evaluate air-cooled and liquid-cooled platforms through thermal, airflow, coolant-flow, and pressure-drop analyses
  • Support laboratory testing, instrumentation setup, sensor deployment, data acquisition, and thermal validation activities
  • Develop scripts/tools to automate test execution, data processing, engineering analysis, and reporting
  • Work on projects involving thermal modeling, simulation, and comparison of measured data against design expectations to identify trends and drive improvements
  • Investigate thermal, flow, and power-related issues and collaborate with engineering teams to implement solutions
  • Document technical findings and communicate results via engineering reports, presentations, and documentation

Qualifications

  • Pursuing Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Thermal Sciences, or related engineering discipline (U.S. university)
  • Knowledge or experience in heat transfer, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, thermal-fluid systems, or engineering analysis
  • Experience with thermal management solutions (liquid cooling, cold plates, heat exchangers, thermal interface materials, airflow management)
  • Laboratory testing, instrumentation, sensors, data acquisition, experimental validation methodologies
  • CAD software such as SolidWorks or Creo
  • CFD/thermal simulation tools (e.g., ANSYS Icepak, Fluent, FloTHERM, COMSOL, OpenFOAM)
  • Analytical, problem-solving, communication, and technical documentation skills
  • Exposure to AI infrastructure, HPC, server technologies, data center platforms, or energy-efficient cooling is a plus
