Datacenter Design Lead

You lead the physical design of AI factory sites, owning power topology, cooling architecture, civil works, and facility layout from concept through construction handover. You design high-density compute facilities, lead modeling and simulation, drive electrical architecture decisions, create scalable design patterns, and serve as the senior technical authority for physical infrastructure tradeoffs.

Responsibilities

• Lead datacenter campus and compute hall design.
• Own power topology, cooling topology, rack density planning, cable routing, and physical deployment standards.
• Design facilities for 100 kW to 1 MW+ racks.
• Design liquid cooling, CDU loop architectures, chilled water systems, rear-door heat exchangers, immersion readiness, and redundancy strategies.
• Lead CAD, CFD/CFM modeling, thermal simulation, electrical one-lines, grounding, UPS and generator integration, and fire suppression design inputs.
• Drive electrical architecture decisions across utility interconnection, switchgear, UPS, backup generation, grounding, and distribution.
• Create repeatable design patterns across campuses and deployment waves.
• Serve as the senior technical authority for physical infrastructure tradeoffs.

Requirements

• Experience building hyperscale campuses, HPC datacenters, liquid-cooled facilities, or high-density compute deployments.
• Deep knowledge of mechanical and electrical systems engineering for mission-critical environments.
• Knowledge of direct-to-chip liquid cooling and advanced thermal architectures.
• Strong command of CAD and CFD simulation and facility design workflows.
• Experience delivering projects with construction and utility partners.
• Ability to coordinate site selection, capacity planning, and utility timelines.
• Success bridging facility engineering detail with strategic infrastructure roadmaps.
