Job Overview by Ladders

Qualifications

  • 5-7 years of experience in electrical engineering, specifically for data centers or heavy industrial projects.
  • Proficiency in reviewing and identifying errors in protection and coordination studies.
  • Proven ownership of energization sequences involving utilities and AHJs.
  • Ability to balance speed and safety effectively in field decisions.
  • Bonus: Professional Engineer (PE) license; experience with medium and high voltage distribution, and behind-the-meter generation.

Responsibilities

  • Lead electrical engineering efforts across data center and industrial projects.
  • Develop and refine the electrical reference design—switchgear, UPS, and busway configurations.
  • Oversee rapid field electrical decisions for site readiness during build phase.
  • Conduct critical reviews of consultant studies such as short circuit and arc flash assessments.
  • Ensure electrical designs are implemented efficiently to support gigawatt-scale operations.

Benefits

  • Full ownership of responsibilities and autonomy in project execution.
  • Fast-paced work environment focused on driving solutions quickly.
  • Opportunity to work on cutting-edge AI and data technology developments.
  • Engagement in high-intensity projects with passionate team members.
Full Job Description
How We Operate
  • Extreme ownership. Full autonomy. Own things end to end often taking on scope outside your core role without being asked to get things done.
  • Velocity. We drive everything forward as fast as possible.
  • First principles. Challenge every assumption. Zero analogy thinking, no egos, the best idea wins.
  • Love of the game. The frontier of AI is the most interesting problem of our time. We put in long hours at high intensity to push the frontier forward.

The Capacity Delivery Team

Examples of key problems the team is working on
  • Engineer gigawatts from drawing to energized, in months not years. Capacity Delivery owns technical execution across every build: the drawings, the field questions, and the engineering calls that keep multiple concurrent gigawatt sites moving.
  • Engineer data centers that go up in months, not years. At that pace rework is not an option: problems get caught on paper or they cost a data hall.
  • Design it once, build it a hundred times. Every site's lessons roll into the reference design on the way to 50GW+, so each build starts ahead of the last.

Role Scope
  • Own electrical engineering across the portfolio: distribution from utility interface to rack, reference design to energization.
  • Set and evolve the electrical reference design: switchgear lineups, UPS topology, and busway.
  • Make the field electrical calls at build speed and own energization readiness site by site.
  • Review consultant studies, short circuit, coordination, arc flash, critically rather than ceremonially.

What We're Looking For

The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.
  • You've led electrical engineering for data center or heavy industrial builds.
  • You review protection and coordination studies and find the errors in them.
  • You've owned energization sequences with utilities and AHJs.
  • Your field decisions balance speed and safety without trading either away.
  • Bonus: PE license. MV and HV distribution. Behind-the-meter generation. Utility interconnection.


We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
