Tens of thousands of Mill's residential food recyclers are already helping households divert millions of pounds of food scraps every year, paving the way for our upcoming launch of Mill Commercial—the industry's first end-to-end solution for managing, understanding, and preventing food waste in commercial environments (e.g. grocery, restaurants, food services). At Mill, we are passionate about building easy-to-use, beautifully designed technologies that keep food in the food system and out of landfills. About this Role: As a Lead Systems Engineer at Mill, you will be responsible for helping ideate, test and define the next generation of Mill's commercial food recycler technology. We are a small team and you will work cross-functionally with
Electrical/Mechanical
Engineers, Algorithms and Product Teams to deliver world class industrial products designed to keep food waste out of landfills. This is a hands-on role and best suited for someone who has a history of working on interdisciplinary projects involving thermal, fluids or chemical processes from concept through production. Responsibilities: Owns system performance: Tech lead for test engineers on the experimental optimization and characterization of system parameters such as temperatures, flow rates, and heat transfer to improve energy efficiency and throughput. Collaborates on analysis and helps derive conclusions and next steps from experimental data. Work collaboratively with algorithms and firmware teams to develop control schemes for the system processes to optimize energy consumption and drying time while ensuring reliable function Identify opportunities to improve the system design to deliver improved performance or reliability. Oversee and direct external simulations work such as CFD, thermal and multiphysics models to help improve system design and performance. Determine the system requirements for various components such as fans, condensers, heaters, flow meters and sensors.
