Descrizione del lavoro:

Job Description

Bosch Research is looking for a Requirements Engineering Intern for Data Center Racks. The duration of the internship is 3 months with a target start date of May 18, 2026.
What you will do:
* Requirements collection and consolidation: Understand and reconcile published requirements from various sources with stakeholder interviews across electrical, thermal, mechanical, controls, safety, and sustainability domains; capture business, regulatory, and operator needs for 250-1,000 kW rack configurations.
* System requirements and architecture: Draft clear, testable system and subsystem requirements for power conversion (800 VDC→48 V→1 V), point-of-load rails, direct liquid cooling/CDU, energy buffering, and unified rack controls/telemetry.
* Standards and compliance mapping: Build compliance and gap analyses against relevant standards and guidance (e.g., OCP, ASHRAE liquid cooling classes, UL/IEC IT and power equipment, EMC/harmonics, NFPA electrical safety) and regional codes.
* Risk and reliability: Contribute to preliminary hazard analysis and FMEA for thermal, electrical, and fluid systems; align requirements with target KPIs for efficiency, leak rates, arc-flash mitigation, fault isolation, and serviceability.
Expected deliverables (3 months):
* Baseline system requirement specification for an integrated 1 MW rack architecture with clear acceptance criteria
* Standards compliance matrix and prioritized gap/risks list
