Climatic Comfort Engineer (Hybrid)
Pubblicato il 31-07-2026 - Altro in Savigliano
Specialista Senior / Project Manager
In this role you apply thermo-fluid dynamics and climate comfort expertise to develop and validate HVAC and air distribution solutions for trains. You will run CFD and experimental tests to assess comfort and energy performance, contributing to R&D; and cross‑disciplinary innovation. You work within the AeroX and Climatic Comfort domain to deliver robust simulations and validated results that support bids and projects. This position offers the chance to shape passenger and driver comfort on mobility systems at scale and across sites.
Perform CFD simulations for internal aerodynamics and climatic comfort, including air distribution, temperature uniformity, draft risk, and HVAC efficiency
Analyze cabin thermal behavior, heat loads, ventilation rates, and HVAC system performance
Support design and optimization of HVAC units, air ducts, diffusers, intakes, filters, heating and cooling solutions
Predict climate comfort indicators using standard methodologies and internal best practices (PMV/PPD, temperature maps)
Define comfort requirements at vehicle and subsystem level
Prepare technical documentation for offers and projects concerning climatic performance
Plan and analyze experiments in environmental chambers, mock-ups, or on-train tests
Support development of advanced modelling techniques combining internal aerodynamics,
thermal loads, and occupant comfort
Contribute to R&D; programs focused on improving comfort, energy efficiency, and HVAC system integration
Interact with AeroX and Comfort experts across sites to leverage shared knowledge
Complementary Aerodynamic Responsibilities: assess external aerodynamic performance when needed and contribute to train aerodynamics testing
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Energy Engineering, Aeronautical Engineering, or related fields
5+ years in thermo-fluid dynamics, HVAC, climatic comfort engineering in railway or related sectors
Experience in numerical simulation and experimental testing
Experience managing technical tasks or small teams (preferred)
Proficiency with CFD software STAR-CCM+, CFX, Fluent, PowerFLOW (or equivalents)
Strong understanding of thermal management, HVAC systems, air distribution and human comfort assessment
Familiarity with fluid-structure interaction and aero-thermal coupling (plus)
Ability to lead transversal R&D; actions and methodology development
Advanced English; Italian also advantageous
