SKILLS
ABOUT KAVAN SANGANEE
As an R&D Engineer at Compact Power Motion (Sonceboz Group), I specialize in simulation-driven cooling concepts for high-performance electric powertrains. My core strengths lie in CFD, thermodynamics, and innovating under tight spatial and thermal constraints.Prior to this, I spent over five years as an Aerodynamicist at Bertrandt AG, contributing to development projects for BMW, Mini, and Rolls-Royce. This experience deepened my expertise in automotive aerodynamics and validation of airflow performance using advanced CFD techniques.My master\'s thesis - designing an immersion cooling system for EV batteries within BMW\'s packaging constraints, was a milestone that fused creativity with engineering rigor. A key breakthrough came from adapting a fluid dynamics principle used in the iron and steel industry to ensure flow uniformity and fire risk mitigation. This project highlighted my ability to apply classic engineering insights to modern mobility challenges.My long-term goal is to bring this blend of engineering depth and problem-solving instinct into motorsports, particularly in aerodynamics within F1 or European feeder series. I am passionate about improving simulation-to-track correlation, optimizing aerodynamic performance, and thriving in high-pressure environments where engineering meets instinct.Whether working in cross-functional OEM teams or agile motorsport setups, I value clear thinking, collaborative innovation, and building systems that perform under pressure.
