Data Center Systems Engineer
About the Role
We're hiring a Data Center Systems Engineer to design and deploy modular data center solutions. You'll develop scalable rack architectures, integrate power and cooling systems, and support customer deployments from planning through execution. This remote role (U.S.-based) requires strong technical expertise and collaboration with cross-functional and client-facing teams.
Location. This role is remote in the continental United States.
What You'll Do (Key Responsibilities)
System Architecture & Design
Architect deployment end-to-end modular data center solutions, including containerized, skid-based, or pre-fabricated modules
Develop scalable and efficient rack designs optimized for compute, storage, and networking equipment.
Integrate power distribution, thermal management, cabling, and space utilization into high-performance rack solutions.
Engineering & Deployment
Capable of reading engineering documents including 3D CAD models, rack elevations, BOMs, airflow diagrams, and wiring schematics.
Capable of creating high level Visio style drawings (prepping for customer readiness).
Collaborate with cross-functional teams including mechanical, electrical, network, and facility engineers.
Perform physical customer siting and deployment evaluations and build customer deployment plan.
Process manage to ensure customer is ready for deployment (customer readiness).
Support deployment teams during site delivery, integration, commissioning, and validation testing.
Vendor & Technology Evaluation
Assess and select vendors for rack hardware, cooling systems, PDUs, cabling, and modular enclosures.
Evaluate emerging technologies in modular infrastructure, edge computing, liquid cooling, and DC power distribution.
Process & Standards Development
Define design and deployment standards for modular systems and rack-level integrations.
Drive automation and repeatability across deployments by leveraging DCIM tools, CAD templates, and configuration management platforms.
Client & Stakeholder Engagement
Work with sales, business development, and client teams to tailor solutions based on customer needs and site-specific constraints.
Present technical concepts and architectural strategies to stakeholders and decision-makers.
Required Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Computer, or Systems Engineering or related field.
5+ years of experience in data center infrastructure, modular deployments, or rack integration design.
Proficiency with CAD tools (e.g., AutoCAD, SolidWorks), Visio, and 3D modeling.
Familiarity with power and cooling standards (e.g., ASHRAE TC 9.9, Uptime Institute, TIA-942).
Strong understanding of IT hardware (servers, switches, storage) and data center cabling best practices.
Ability to travel occasionally to data center or partner sites.
Preferred Qualifications
Master’s degree or equivalent experience in a highly technical discipline.
Experience with hyperscale or edge data center design and rapid deployment methods.
Knowledge of CFD (computational fluid dynamics) for airflow and thermal modeling.
Understanding of sustainability practices and energy-efficient designs (e.g., PUE optimization).
Certifications: CDCP, DCDC, RCDD, or equivalent.
Citizenship Requirements
For select roles, due to the nature of our clientele and the technologies involved, there may be specific nationality or citizenship indicated in the required qualifications section. These roles may involve access to sensitive information that is subject to export control regulations or other legal restrictions. In such cases, employment offers will be contingent upon your ability to comply with these requirements.
Compensation
For U.S. Based candidates: To ensure fairness and transparency, the on-target earnings salary range for this role for candidates in the U.S. are listed, varying based on location experience, skills, and qualifications.
In addition to the salary, this role will also be offered equity and subsidized benefits (details available upon request).
Benefits
Competitive base salary and equity
Medical, dental, and vision (subsidized cost)
Health savings accounts (HSA), flexible spending accounts (FSA), and dependent care FSAs (DCFSA)
Retirement plan options, including 401(k) and Roth 401(k)
Unlimited paid time off (PTO)
15 paid company holidays per year
