Meet Bret Timme, our Electrical Engineer I, supporting both Operations and Soltex R&D. Over the past two years, Bret has worked across a broad range of technical areas, including product development, testing, process design, and customer-facing support. His role is highly collaborative, requiring coordination with internal engineering and production teams as well as engagement with customers seeking technical solutions. One standout area of his work involves dielectric and thermal fluid products, where he focuses on single-phase immersion cooling applications. His ability to integrate electrical, mechanical, and chemical engineering has helped advance innovation in this growing field. 

Bret strongly believes in clear and honest communication, especially in engineering environments where collaboration is critical. He believes that success doesn’t come solely from having technical knowledge, but from the ability to explain ideas, listen well, and admit you’re still learning. This mindset is essential to his approach at Soltex, where he’s known for taking initiative and proactively solving challenges before they become problems. Additionally, Bret represents Soltex and participates within several technical organizations to help influence and translate insight into our strategies. Participating in these groups allows him to stay connected to the latest developments in the industry.  

Bret describes himself as resilient, curious, and driven, three qualities that clearly show in his work. He adapts quickly, seeks to understand problems, and consistently pushes projects forward. These traits make him a strong contributor and a valuable part of the Soltex team.
