What they need


  • Unfortunately, we are not able to provide work authorization in the US for this position.

We are seeking a Senior AI Data Center Electrical Engineer to lead the electrical power design, implementation, and optimization of high-performance computing (HPC) and AI data centers. This critical role focuses on delivering reliable, scalable, and efficient power infrastructure for next-generation GPU-accelerated systems at massive scale. You will drive projects involving large-scale (100-300 MW) HPC/AI facilities as well as modular data center deployments (1-2MW per MDC) that aggregate into 50-300 MW sites, with deep understanding of NVIDIA Grace Blackwell (GB300) and Vera Rubin (VR200) reference architectures.

What impact you will have

  • Design, specify, and optimize medium-voltage (MV) and low-voltage (LV) electrical distribution systems for hyperscale and modular HPC/AI data centers, including switchboards, overhead busways, circuit breakers, transformers (including ML/VL types), PDUs, RPPs, grounding, and protection systems.
  • Lead power architecture for NVIDIA GB300 (Grace Blackwell) and VR200 (Vera Rubin) Superpod/reference deployments, addressing high-density rack power requirements (e.g., 120-160 kW+ per NVL72 rack), liquid cooling integration, power smoothing, and synchronous load management.
  • Develop and implement Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), UPS, generators, and backup power solutions to ensure 99.999% uptime and grid stability for AI/HPC workloads.
  • Architect modular data center solutions (1-2 MW containers/pods) that scale efficiently into larger 50-300 MW+ HPC/AI sites, focusing on rapid deployment, standardization, and interoperability.
  • Perform power system studies (short circuit, arc flash, coordination, load flow, harmonics, grounding) and ensure compliance with NEC, NFPA, IEEE, and other relevant codes/standards.
  • Collaborate with mechanical, structural, and IT teams on MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) integration, including 480V AC and 800V DC architectures, overhead busway distribution, and high-current delivery systems.
  • Create and be able to explain detailed single-line power flow diagrams, providing full specifications, justification for design decisions to both technical and non-technical customers.
  • Support construction, commissioning, and operations phases: review drawings, specifications, and submittals; troubleshoot issues; and optimize for efficiency, capacity planning, and cost.
  • Evaluate and integrate emerging technologies for power density, energy efficiency, and sustainability in AI factories.
  • Mentor junior engineers and contribute to the development of company standards and best practices for data center electrical infrastructure.

What you'll have

  • Bachelor’s degree (or higher) in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems, or a related field. PE license preferred.
  • 10+ years of progressive experience in electrical engineering for mission-critical facilities, with at least 5 years focused on large-scale data centers.
  • Proven experience designing and deploying HPC/AI data centers at scale in the 100-300 MW range.
  • Hands-on experience with modular data centers (1-2 MW units) that aggregate into 50-300 MW sites.
  • Deep expertise in NVIDIA Grace Blackwell (GB300) and Vera Rubin (VR200) reference architectures, including power delivery, in-line BESS, transformers, switchgear, busways, power-smoothing, and related MEP requirements.
  • Strong knowledge of high-density power systems: MV/LV switchgear, overhead busways, circuit breakers, PDUs, BESS, UPS, generators, power smoothing, and harmonic mitigation.
  • Experience with power system analysis tools (ETAP, SKM, etc.) and commissioning processes.
  • Excellent problem-solving, communication, and leadership skills with the ability to work in fast-paced, cross-functional environments.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with liquid-cooled, high-power-density racks (100+ kW) and rack-scale systems like NVIDIA NVL72 / SuperPOD.
  • Familiarity with Grid-to-Rack power distribution, all MEP equipment in single-line power specification, 13.8kV/34.5kV to IT white spaces with 480V AC and/or 800V DC power distribution, BESS integration, and renewable/grid-tied systems.
  • Background in hyperscale operators, colocation providers, or AI infrastructure projects.
  • Knowledge of data center standards (Uptime Institute, TIA-942) and safety protocols (NFPA 70E, OSHA).

What We Offer

  • Attractive compensation package reflecting your expertise and experience.
  • Medical Insurance Plan.
  • 401k Employee volunteer contribution Plan.
  • A great work environment characterized by friendliness, international diversity, flexibility, and a hybrid-friendly approach.
  • You´ll be part of a fast-growing scale-up with a mission to make a positive impact, offering an exciting career evolution.

Our job titles may span more than one job level. The actual base pay is dependent on a number of factors, such as transferable skills, work experience, business needs, and market demands.

Our inclusive responsibility Submer is committed to creating a diverse and inclusive environment and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, veteran status, or any other protected category under applicable law.
