Job Overview by Ladders

Qualifications

  • 5-10 years of electrical engineering experience, particularly in data centers or heavy industrial projects.
  • Proven track record of leading electrical engineering initiatives from concept to execution.
  • Expertise in reviewing protection and coordination studies, identifying errors effectively.
  • Experience managing energization sequences with utilities and authority having jurisdiction (AHJ).
  • Ability to make critical field decisions that balance speed with safety.
  • Bonus: Professional Engineer (PE) license; familiarity with medium voltage (MV) and high voltage (HV) distribution.

Responsibilities

  • Own electrical engineering responsibilities across the entire project portfolio, from utility interface to rack design.
  • Set and evolve standardized electrical reference designs, including switchgear and UPS systems.
  • Make timely field electrical decisions to ensure energization readiness at each construction site.
  • Conduct thorough reviews of consultant studies, focusing on short circuit analysis and arc flash assessment.
  • Drive the engineering execution of gigawatt projects, ensuring rapid deployment without compromising quality.

Benefits

  • Full autonomy and ownership over projects.
  • Fast-paced, dynamic work environment focused on innovation.
  • Engaging work at the forefront of AI and engineering challenges.
  • Collaborative culture emphasizing the best ideas, free from ego.
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.
