Sr. Principal Electrical Rack Engineer (Rack Integration Solutions)

Position Overview Sr. Principal Electrical Rack Engineer – Intelligent Infrastructure Segment. The role leads the design, integration, and testing of rack-level electrical solutions for high‑performance computing systems and supports global product development, customer engagements, and vendor relationships. Responsibilities Lead end‑to‑end integration and testing of rack electrical solutions, including medium/low voltage systems (48V DC up to ±400V or 800V DC), UPS, and PDUs across various form factors and product lines. Participate in customer engagements and site visits to understand deployment constraints and gather feedback for design improvements. Build accurate rack power budgets and model electrical capacity for current and future high‑density server or switch configurations. Manage relationships with electrical/power component vendors to develop a robust partner ecosystem of PSUs, PDUs, bus bars, power shelves, and high‑voltage equipment. Ensure all rack designs meet safety and certification requirements such as NEC/NFPA, IEEE, and UL/IEC. Design, review, or integrate rack PDUs and power‑distribution components, including breaker configurations, metering, and load‑balancing features. Perform detailed failure‑mode analysis, including FMEA and root‑cause investigations for electrical defects or field issues. Define, validate, and improve factory electrical test strategies, including continuity testing, sequencing, load testing, and safety verification. Develop and maintain accurate electrical one‑line diagrams for rack‑level and row‑level power architectures, ensuring correct representation of power flow, grounding, redundancy, and protection devices. Collaborate with Architects, Compliance, Reliability, and global vendors to align electrical architectures with total system design and international data‑center power standards (e.g., OCP, ASHRAE, ANSI, TIA‑942). Develop and maintain design documentation including BOMs, specifications, test plans, and engineering change orders (ECOs). Conduct root‑cause analysis and corrective actions for electrical failures or field issues. May perform other duties and responsibilities as assigned. Qualifications Minimum 8+ years of experience in electrical systems integration with 4+ years in rack‑scale electrical/power design and analysis. Strong understanding of electrical systems, integration strategies, and large‑scale program management. Familiarity with server design standards (EIA‑310, OCP/ORV3), 48V DC busbar connections, power plugs, and cable routing. Proficiency in electrical tools and simulations (AutoCAD, Ansys, PSpice, SCADA, DCIM, etc.). Hands‑on experience with electrical safety tests such as hi‑pot, ground‑bond, leakage current, and continuity checks. Experience writing and updating work instructions, assembly diagrams, test plans, and electrical schematics based on hands‑on build results. Excellent English communication skills (verbal and written) and strong technical leadership capabilities. Excellent interpersonal skills; creative, self‑motivated, accountable, and team‑oriented. Ability to work independently with minimal oversight, assess projects, articulate risks, and develop project milestones. Skilled in writing reports, business correspondence, and procedural guides; effective at presenting information and responding to management and customers. Capable of influencing others and sharing best practices; familiar with stage‑gate processes in project lifecycle management (PLCM). Ability to travel domestically and internationally up to 30%. Education Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related field is required. Preferred Qualifications Master’s Degree in Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related field. Experience designing electrical power systems for data centers, telecom, or industrial power/cooling products. Technical leadership in establishing long‑term electrical design standards, documentation, and best practices for rack engineering teams. Translation of one‑line diagrams into factory‑ready build documentation for prototype builds and production ramp. Active Professional Engineer (PE) license preferred. Experience generating cable layouts to minimize EMI/EMC issues in dense computing environments. Hands‑on experience with prototype fabrication and testing; experience with global suppliers and contract manufacturers a plus. Compensation The pay range for this role is $164,200 – $295,600.
