Frore Systems - san jose, CA
Apply NowJob Description
Frore Systems is looking for seasoned Mechanical Engineering leader to join our Customer Engineering team to expand the adoption of AirJet into scores of customer edge devices. Frore Systems has invented and launched AirJet, the world's first solid-state active cooling chip. AirJet has redefined edge computing by unleashing full processor performance even in thin, compact, vibration free, dustproof, and waterproof devices. An AirJet based thermal solution provides significantly higher heat dissipation in edge devices at a dramatically lower noise, thickness, volume, and weight than traditional fan-based solutions. As an example, an AirJet upgrade to a MacBook Air delivers the same processor performance as a MacBook Pro in the much thinner and quieter MacBook Air form factor. LTT: Apple please watch this. - Frore AirJet MacBook Air In compute devices, compute power and density, turbocharged by the generative AI (Artificial Intelligence) revolution, is increasing exponentially. This increased computing power generates heat, and as processors become increasingly sophisticated and more powerful, the amount of heat they generate is skyrocketing. While processing power and heat generation is growing exponentially, thermal solutions are struggling to keep pace.
