The Impact You'll Make

 
Are you interested in a role where your ideas and input contribute to the development of new cooling solutions for Data Centers through Simulation Models?
 
You will help shape the future of energy‑efficient and sustainable data centers by turning complex cooling challenges into intelligent, simulation‑driven solutions. Your work will directly influence how data centers are designed, optimized, and decarbonized worldwide.
 
By developing system‑level simulation models, you will enable faster innovation, smarter design decisions, and reduced environmental impact. You will be a key contributor to Danfoss’ digital transformation and our ambition to lead within data center cooling technologies.
 
Working at the intersection of simulation, engineering, and digitalization, you will collaborate with highly skilled experts across functions and geographies to turn advanced models into real‑world impact.

What You’ll Be Doing

 

  • Develop and run system simulations for data center cooling solutions to predict performance and optimize designs.
  • Translate simulation insights into design improvements, supporting engineers with data‑driven recommendations.
  • Drive model‑based development, promoting best practices and strengthening simulation as a decision‑making tool.
  • Collaborate across teams and partners, connecting simulation specialists with data center experts and developers.
  • Communicate results clearly, creating technical reports and presentations for internal and external stakeholders.

What We're Looking For

 

  • Bachelor's or master's degree in Energy Systems, Mechanical Engineering, Control Engineering, or a related field.
  • Hands‑on experience with system simulation tools such as Dymola, Modelon Impact, Dyad, or Simulink/Simscape.
  • Solid understanding of thermodynamics and cooling systems, ideally within data center or refrigeration contexts.
  • Experience in system control or Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation would be benefitial.
  • Fluent English communication skills, both written and spoken.

What You'll Get from Us

 

  1. We promote from within and support your learning with mentoring, training, and access to global opportunities.
  2. You’ll have flexibility, autonomy, and support to do your best work while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Your well-being matters to us.
  3. We strive to create an inclusive work environment where people of all backgrounds are respected, and valued for who they are.
  4. You’ll receive benefits like annual bonus, paid vacation, pension plans, personal insurance, and more. These vary by country and contract, but they’re worth asking about—we think they’re pretty great.
