Heat Transfer Sme

Insight Global is seeking an experienced Heat Transfer Subject Matter Expert to provide engineering-domain leadership and validation throughout Honeywell Technologies’ UHX application modernization.
This individual will serve as the bridge between the engineering science embedded within the legacy application and the technology team responsible for modernizing it.
The Heat Transfer SME will help ensure that modernization changes do not unintentionally alter engineering calculations, assumptions, workflows, or outputs. This individual will work closely with the Technical Lead / Solution Architect, .NET Developers, React Developers, QA Automation Engineer, and Honeywell engineering stakeholders.
The successful candidate will possess deep expertise in heat transfer principles, thermal analysis, heat exchanger design methodologies, and engineering calculation workflows.
Key Responsibilities
Serve as the primary heat-transfer and thermal-engineering SME for the modernization team.
Analyze calculations, engineering workflows, formulas, assumptions, and outputs within the legacy application.
Explain existing engineering workflows and calculation methodologies to the software-development team.
Partner with the Technical Lead and developers to translate domain logic into clear functional and technical requirements.
Validate the functional equivalence of engineering calculations following modernization.Thermal systems analysis
Thermodynamics
Fluid flow
Thermal-performance analysis
Mechanical and process equipment design
Participate in discovery workshops to document current-state functionality.
Identify undocumented calculations, dependencies, assumptions, and business-critical engineering logic.
Establish expected engineering outputs and acceptance criteria.
Partner with the QA Automation Engineer to develop engineering-specific test scenarios.
Analyze differences between legacy and modernized calculation results.
Support root-cause analysis when application results differ.
Review modernized application workflows for alignment with established engineering practices.
Review user-interface changes to ensure they continue to support engineering activities.
Support user acceptance testing, demonstrations, and technical sign-off.
Document calculation methodologies, assumptions, validation requirements, and expected outcomes.
Help preserve institutional engineering knowledge throughout the modernization effort.
Identify opportunities for future process or application improvements.
REQUIRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Thermal Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a closely related discipline.
10+ years of experience in heat transfer, thermal analysis, or heat exchanger design.
Deep knowledge of:Thermodynamics
Experience working with engineering calculation, design, or simulation software.
Ability to review equations, algorithms, calculation approaches, and technical outputs.
Experience reviewing and validating complex engineering calculations.
Experience communicating complex engineering principles to software-development teams.
Strong analytical, problem-solving, and technical-documentation skills.
Ability to distinguish software defects from engineering methodology or input issues.
Experience participating in technical reviews and engineering validation activities.
NICE TO HAVE SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE
Shell-and-tube heat exchanger experience.
Familiarity with TEMA standards.
Experience with HTRI, Aspen EDR, or comparable thermal-design software.
Experience with engineering simulation and modeling.
Previous involvement in software modernization or digital-transformation initiatives.
Experience supporting industrial, manufacturing, energy, aerospace, chemical, or process-engineering applications.
Familiarity with software verification, regression testing, or user acceptance testing.
Experience working in Agile software-development environments.
Experience documenting legacy engineering processes and calculation methodologies.
Compensation:$54/hr to $76/hr
Exact compensation may vary based on several factors, including skills, experience, and education.
Artificial intelligence tools are used to assist in screening and assessing applicants for this position.
