Lead Electrical Engineer, Deployment EngineeringThe Deployment Engineering TeamExamples of key problems the team is working on- Turn 50GW+ of design into 50GW+ of built, running infrastructure. The Design team sets the blueprint. This team is where it survives contact with a live construction schedule and becomes a real site.
- Close the gap between engineering-complete and operations-ready. A design that passes review still has to survive commissioning, integration, and energization, and that gap is where deployment work lives.
- Make the tenth site faster and cleaner than the first. Every deployment feeds field learnings back into the standards, so a one-off fight at one site becomes a repeatable playbook at the next.
- Hand off infrastructure that's reliable from the moment it goes live. AI compute workloads don't tolerate a shaky handover, so what this team commissions has to run right the day operations takes over.
Role Scope- Lead end-to-end deployment and commissioning of electrical power systems across concurrent sites, from pre-deployment readiness through energization, acceptance testing, and live handover.
- Own operational reliability of electrical infrastructure across the live fleet, leading root cause analysis on power events and implementing corrective actions that cut repeat incidents.
- Build and maintain electrical commissioning standards, acceptance test procedures, and runbooks covering MV distribution, UPS, switchgear, and rack-level delivery.
- Serve as the on-site technical authority through switchgear energization, transformer commissioning, generator load testing, and UPS validation, resolving field failures before they delay handover.
- Set and enforce electrical reliability standards across the portfolio: protective relay coordination, redundancy validation, failover testing, and arc flash compliance.
What We're Looking ForThe 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 hold a bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
- You've owned field deployment and commissioning of electrical systems on data centers or mission-critical facilities.
- You've energized and commissioned MV distribution, UPS systems, switchgear, and standby generation on live or commissioning-phase infrastructure.
- You've built electrical commissioning standards, acceptance test procedures, and reliability runbooks that hold up at a portfolio level.
- You've led root cause analysis and corrective actions on power availability events under time pressure.
- You've mentored electrical engineers in the field and built their ability to commission independently.
- You can travel to deployment and operations sites up to 50 percent of the time.
- Bonus: Professional Engineer (PE) license. Experience building or leading an electrical commissioning or power reliability program across multiple concurrent sites. Proficiency in SKM or ETAP for power system analysis, arc flash studies, and protective relay coordination. Familiarity with CMMS platforms, EPMS/DCIM power monitoring, and predictive maintenance tools. Knowledge of NFPA 70E, NFPA 110, IEEE 3006, and Uptime Institute reliability standards.
Compensation: $300,000 - $340,000 per year, depending on experience, skills, qualifications, and location. Offers equity in the form of stock options.
We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
