This role reports to the Innovation Experts Manager and operates in a global team. The team conists of other professionals each one with the following structure of skills and competencies:

• One (or more than one) major vertical expertise. In the team the person is identified as the matter expert
• Some other lighter expertises that can be extended and developed to become a matter expert
• A broad understanding of the fundamentals of cooling technologies and architectures for data center

The team is globally responsible for:

• understanding technologies and market trends
• investigating innovative technologies and processes
• generating innovation ideas
• supporting the innovation roadmap creation
• developing innovation projects/challenges (H3, H2, H1) – (incubation – investigation – feasibility)
• providing domain expert level support to the organization on the following areas:
  • Thermodynamics & Refrigerants
  • Mechanical & Electrical units pre-design
  • Power and Digital (BSM, Controls, Software)
  • Simulations (CFDs, steady state, transient)
  • Cooling Technologies
  • Cooling Architectures (at system level)
• Ensuring collaboration, connection and alignment with other innovation efforts within the Cooling LoB, across SP and outside SP (Digital & Service Division)
• Providing deep expertise in the above domains to (but not only to)
  • Internal and external training
  • SE white papers technical writers
  • SE events (writing technical content or as a speaker)

  • To other SE teams
• Collaborating with Offer Creation and R&D in supporting roadmap development when needed
• Acting as a consultant on the specific domain whenever required

This role is involved in all the activities above with a specific focus on Power (cooling units power architecture and power train for cooling) and nice to have on Digital (BMS, controls and software).

Activities and Responsibilities

Domains definition

• « Power » means the electrical subsytstems of cooling units and distribution architecture at data center level (from grid to chip)

  • AC and 800VDC Fundamentals
  • AC and 800VDC Regulations, compliances and safety
  • AC and 800 VDC Distribution and architectures

• « Digital » includes:

  • BMS architectures in general and on data centers
  • Controls logic and behaviour of thermal/cooling systems
  • Fundamentals of cooling unit software architectures
  • Fundamentals of power control logic
  • SE digital platforms and services offering
  • SE software offering related to cooling or connected to cooling

This role has the following main responsibilities and activities:

• Being expert and updated on the state of the art on his/her vertical domain(s) at least on more than one topic of the above defined domains – 800 VDC is preferred
• Has a more than basic understanding for the remaining vertical domains (e.g. at least two on Digital and one on Power)
