About the role
- This critical role focuses on delivering reliable, scalable, and efficient power infrastructure for next-generation GPU-accelerated systems at massive scale.
- Our job titles may span more than one job level.
Responsibilities
- Design, specify, and optimize medium-voltage (MV) and low-voltage (LV) electrical distribution systems for hyperscale and modular HPC/AI data centers, including switchboards, overhead busways, circuit breakers, transformers (including ML/VL types), PDUs, RPPs, grounding, and protection systems.
- Lead power architecture for NVIDIA GB300 (Grace Blackwell) and VR200 (Vera Rubin) Superpod/reference deployments, addressing high-density rack power requirements (e.g., 120-160 kW+ per NVL72 rack), liquid cooling integration, power smoothing, and synchronous load management.
- Develop and implement Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), UPS, generators, and backup power solutions to ensure 99.999% uptime and grid stability for AI/HPC workloads.
- Perform power system studies (short circuit, arc flash, coordination, load flow, harmonics, grounding) and ensure compliance with NEC, NFPA, IEEE, and other relevant codes/standards.
- Collaborate with mechanical, structural, and IT teams on MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) integration, including 480V AC and 800V DC architectures, overhead busway distribution, and high-current delivery systems.
Requirements
- Experience with power system analysis tools (ETAP, SKM, etc.) and commissioning processes.
- Excellent problem-solving, communication, and leadership skills with the ability to work in fast-paced, cross-functional environments.
Nice to have
- Experience with liquid-cooled, high-power-density racks (100+ kW) and rack-scale systems like NVIDIA NVL72 / SuperPOD.
- Background in hyperscale operators, colocation providers, or AI infrastructure projects.
- Knowledge of data center standards (Uptime Institute, TIA-942) and safety protocols (NFPA 70E, OSHA).
- Attractive compensation package reflecting your expertise and experience.
- 401k Employee volunteer contribution Plan.
- Evaluate and integrate emerging technologies for power density, energy efficiency, and sustainability in AI factories.
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to the development of company standards and best practices for data center electrical infrastructure.
- Bachelor's degree (or higher) in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems, or a related field.
Skills
- The actual base pay is dependent on a number of factors, such as transferable skills, work experience, business needs, and market demands.
Compensation
- Attractive compensation package reflecting your expertise and experience.
Benefits
- Medical Insurance Plan.
- You´ll be part of a fast-growing scale-up with a mission to make a positive impact, offering an exciting career evolution.
