Senior Mechanical Design Engineer

Position Description :

We at Blue Frontier are racing to solve arguably the biggest sustainability problem in the world using disruptive technology and business models. Air conditioning is the fastest growing use of electricity in the US and globally. If present trends continue, by 2050 air conditioning electricity consumption will be bigger than the combined electricity consumption of China and India today!

Blue Frontiers AC system combines dew-point-style sensible cooling with liquid desiccant dehumidification to reduce electricity use by up to 90%. The desiccant is recharged and stored when electricity is the lowest cost or cleanest, and later used to deliver cooling when electricity is costly or derived from non-renewable sources. These features enable our system to solve an array of todays largest sustainability problems from the Duck Curve to peak load management, from humidity control to integration of intermittent renewable resources.

Working in the Product Development department and reporting to the VP of Product Development, the Senior Mechanical Design Engineer will implement engineering design solutions and processes that will enhance the performance, cost, reliability, manufacturability, durability, and quality of our systems.

To the ideal candidate, this position is an opportunity to create products with the potential to literally change the world for the better. If you are creative, personable, highly responsible, passionate, intelligent, and driven, you should join us.
