Job Title: Refrigeration Engineer – Vertical Lead (Cold Rooms, Blast Freezers & PCM
Integration)
Location: Bangalore
About Tan90: Tan90 Thermal Solutions is a deep-tech company developing advanced
Phase Change Material (PCM)-based cooling systems. We are redefining energy-efficient
cold chain and HVAC technologies through proprietary PCM formulations and retrofittable
thermal storage systems.
Role Overview: We are seeking a seasoned Refrigeration Engineer to lead the design
and manufacturing vertical for blast freezers, cold rooms, and PCM-integrated refrigeration
systems. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience in industrial refrigeration
design, component selection, and performance optimization, with a focus on low-carbon
and energy-efficient systems.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead design, development, and optimization of refrigeration systems (blast freezers, cold
rooms, and PCM retrofits).
- Supervise manufacturing, assembly, and field installation of refrigeration units.
- Integrate PCM modules within cooling circuits and ensure compatibility with
compressors, condensers, and evaporators.
- Conduct load calculations, thermodynamic analysis, and system sizing for temperature
applications (-40°C to +10°C).
- Collaborate with R&D; for PCM–refrigeration coupling, including defrost cycles, control
logic, and PID optimization.
- Develop BOMs, design documentation, and performance validation protocols.
- Work closely with vendors and OEMs (compressors, expansion valves, controllers, etc.)
for cost and quality optimization.
- Train and guide junior engineers, technicians, and project teams in refrigeration best
practices.
- Interface with customers for technical validation, retrofitting feasibility, and
post-installation optimization.
Preferred Background: 6–12 years of experience in refrigeration system design and
project execution. Prior experience in companies like Blue Star, Voltas, Carrier, Rinac,
Elanpro, or other refrigeration OEMs preferred. Exposure to COn / hydrocarbon / glycol
systems is an advantage. Knowledge of both air-cooled and water-cooled condensing
units.
Technical Skills & Tools: Proficiency in refrigeration system design and psychrometric
calculations. Strong grasp of thermodynamics
