Full Job Description
We are looking for an experienced Electrical Engineer to lead the electrical engineering design and oversight of Jump's mission-critical HPC data center infrastructure. This role takes responsible charge of power system design, from medium voltage distribution through high-density rack-level delivery, across new builds, expansions, and ongoing operations. You will establish electrical design standards, perform engineer-of-record duties, and work closely with mechanical, structural, and technology teams to ensure integrated, resilient system design for our high-performance computing environments. What You'll Do: Electrical System Design & Standards - Lead the electrical engineering design for Jump's critical HPC data center infrastructure projects, taking responsible charge for overall project delivery and technical excellence. - Design/Review plans for complex power systems including generator plants, medium voltage distribution, uninterruptible power systems, automatic transfer systems, and redundant power architectures for mission-critical facilities. - Develop initial electrical system concepts and establish design standards, specifications, and criteria for data center projects. - Perform calculations, equipment selection, equipment specification, system design, and system layout for high-density computing environments. - Produce high-quality technical deliverables including drawings, specifications, and reports consistent with Jump requirements and industry standards. Engineer of Record & QA/QC - Perform Engineer of Record duties and assume responsible charge for electrical discipline deliverables. - Serve as engineer of record for electrical power striping from RPPs/busways to device cabinets, ensuring correct phase balancing, circuit allocation, and redundancy across high-density HPC environments. - Participate in QA/QC processes and technical reviews of work produced by team members and external partners. - Conduct due diligence reports, gap analyses, and feasibility studies for new data center sites and expansions. Project & Team Leadership - Lead multi-discipline project teams and coordinate with mechanical, structural, and technology teams to ensure integrated system design. - Establish and manage project budgets, schedules, and resource allocation for assigned projects. - Mentor and train junior engineers while providing technical leadership and guidance. Construction & Field Operations - Perform field investigations, construction administration, and commissioning oversight. - Process and review RFIs, change orders, bulletins, and addenda during construction phases. - Evaluate existing site conditions and provide detailed assessment reports. Vendor & Stakeholder Management - Interface with colocation providers, contractors, equipment vendors, and manufacturers throughout the project lifecycle. - Support business development activities and maintain relationships with key stakeholders. AI-Driven Engineering - Use AI tools daily to accelerate design work, perform calculations, analyze power data, draft documentation, and improve engineering workflows. - Identify opportunities to apply AI across electrical design and operational processes. Codes, Standards & Continuing Education - Maintain current knowledge of electrical codes, industry standards, and emerging technologies relevant to data center design. - Stay current with LEED principles and their application to data center environments. Additional duties as assigned or needed. Skills You'll Need: - Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or Architectural Engineering with electrical building systems emphasis from an accredited university. - Professional Engineer (PE) license required. - EIT credential required if PE not yet obtained. - Minimum 7+ years experience designing electrical systems for mission-critical facilities, data centers, or high-performance computing environments, preferably in a consulting or end-user engineering capacity. - Proven track record as lead project engineer capable of directing technical teams and managing complex projects. - Experience interacting with clients, contractors, architects, and cross-functional project teams. - Demonstrates a high level of energy, results driven, and able to work under pressure with tight deadlines. - Excellent written and verbal communication skills with ability to interface with technical and non-technical stakeholders. - Strong project management skills including proposal writing, budget management, and stakeholder relations. - Attention to detail, highly organized, self-starter with ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously. Technical Skills: - Expert knowledge of electrical systems including medium/low voltage distribution, emergency power systems, UPS systems, and grounding. - Experience with data center-specific requirements including redundancy levels (N, N+1, 2N), concurrent maintainability, fault tolerance, and high-density power distribution. - Proficiency with Revit and AutoCAD MEP for electrical design and Building Information Modeling (BIM). - Ability to read and review floor plans, sections, elevations, and visualize systems in 3D space. - Strong working knowledge of electrical codes and standards (NEC, NFPA, IEEE). - Understanding of LEED principles and their application to data center environments. - Programming/scripting experience (Python preferred) is a plus. - Demonstrated heavy use of AI tools (e.g., LLM-based assistants, AI-driven analytics) in a professional setting. You should already be using AI daily and be eager to push its application further. - Extremely high personal standards for work quality. - Reliable and predictable availability, including the ability to work evenings and weekends as required.
