> Senior Electrical Engineer designing modular, factory-built electrical infrastructure (e-houses, switchgear skids, prefabricated rooms) for gigawatt-scale data centers. Owns end-to-end design, standardization, vendor collaboration, and site integration.

## Job Description

## Responsibilities
- Own electrical design of modular and prefabricated power infrastructure for data centers: switchgear skids, modular electrical rooms, and modular data centers.
- Apply design-for-manufacturability principles - standardization, tolerances, transportation and rigging constraints, factory workflows - so modules are repeatable, testable, and fast to deploy.
- Develop and maintain standard designs, specifications, and configuration control for the modular product line, integrating lessons learned across deployments.
- Support site integration and commissioning of modular solutions, feeding field findings back into product revisions.

## Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering.
- 7+ years of electrical engineering experience, including data center or other mission-critical facilities.
- Strong background designing modular electrical solutions for data centers - e-houses, skids, prefabricated electrical rooms, or packaged power equipment.
- Solid working knowledge of the data center power chain: MV/LV distribution, switchgear, transformers, UPS, generators, ATS, and Busway systems.
- Demonstrated design-for-manufacturability experience: designing equipment or assemblies for factory production rather than field-built construction.
- Experience working directly with equipment manufacturers, including design reviews and factory acceptance testing.

## Nice-to-Haves
- BIM/VDC proficiency (Revit, Navisworks, clash detection) and prefabrication planning experience.
- Professional Engineer (PE) license.
- Prior experience at a hyperscale data center operator, modular infrastructure manufacturer, or packaged power solutions provider.
- Exposure to quality systems and production engineering (ITPs, first-article inspection, NCR processes).

## Compensation & Benefits
- Competitive total compensation package (cash + equity).
- Retirement or pension plan, in line with local norms.
- Health, dental, and vision insurance.
- Generous PTO policy, in line with local norms.
- The base salary range for this position is $200,000 - $250,000 per year, depending on experience, skills, qualifications, and location. Total compensation may also include equity in the form of stock options.
