Senior Electrical Engineer - Power Distribution Data Centers - Remote

REMOTE Competitive + Bonus + Profit Share Permanent

Senior Electrical Engineer, MV/LV Power Distribution
Data Center Infrastructure | Fully Remote (US) | Direct Hire

The company

Our client is a fast-growing data center and AI infrastructure company. It builds facilities in the 10 to 20 MW range and is scaling quickly. This is the first in-house electrical engineering hire, so you will set the technical standard instead of inheriting one.

The role

You will own the electrical design of medium and low voltage power distribution across the company's data center portfolio. Today that work leans on outside consultants. You will bring it in-house, work directly with leadership, and shape how the company designs, specifies, and builds power systems as it grows. Title is flexible for the right person.

What you'll do

  • Lead MV/LV power distribution design from utility interconnection through the facility, including switchgear, transformers, UPS, generators, and critical power paths
  • Review and direct work from outside engineering firms, and take over more of it in-house over time
  • Develop electrical standards, reference designs, and equipment specifications that repeat across sites
  • Support utility coordination, interconnection studies, and power delivery timelines
  • Work with procurement and construction teams on long-lead equipment, constructability, and commissioning
  • Be the technical voice on electrical decisions with executives, developers, and partners

What we're looking for

  • Active Professional Engineer (PE) license in any US state
  • Significant experience designing MV/LV power distribution, ideally in data centers, mission-critical facilities, or other high-reliability environments
  • Working knowledge of relevant codes and standards (NEC, IEEE, NFPA) and of utility interconnection requirements
  • Comfort working independently and making sound calls without a large team around you
  • Clear communication with both technical and non-technical stakeholders

Why this role

  • Founding-level technical influence at a company in rapid growth
  • A direct line to leadership, with real ownership of your discipline
  • Fully remote, with the flexibility that comes with it
