Job Summary:
- Vertiv is seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer - Power to lead the electrical architecture and system integration of next-generation rack- and row-based infrastructure solutions supporting high-density compute and AI-driven data center applications.
- In this role, you will own the electrical design and integration strategy across complex systems-including racks, power distribution, and thermal systems-ensuring scalable, compliant, and high-performance designs from concept through production.
- You will work cross-functionally with global engineering, product management, procurement, and manufacturing teams, playing a key role in driving innovation, interoperability, and system-level performance across New Product Development (NPD) programs and customer solutions.
- Why This Role is Exciting
- Direct impact on next-generation data center and AI infrastructure solutions
- Ownership of system-level electrical architecture, not just component design
- Work across electrical, mechanical, thermal, and controls integration challenges
- High visibility within global NPD programs and customer-facing solutions
- Opportunity to shape and influence electrical design standards and best practices at VertivKey Responsibilities1. Electrical Architecture & System Integration
- Own the electrical architecture for rack- and row-based systems, including PDUs, containment systems, and integrated solutions
- Define and manage interfaces between electrical, mechanical, thermal, and control subsystems
- Ensure system-level integration meets requirements for performance, safety, and regulatory compliance
- Evaluate and ensure electrical compatibility, interoperability, and integration across system components2. Electrical Design & Analysis
- Develop electrical system designs, including:
- Single-line and three-line schematics
- Power distribution and load calculations
- Grounding and bonding systems
- Monitoring and control architectures
- Perform short-circuit, fault, and coordination analysis
- Select and specify electrical components and assemblies aligned with NPD and project requirements
- Ensure compliance with NEC, UL/IEC 62368-1, IEC 60364, IEC 61000, EN 55032, and related standards3. Cross-Functional Leadership
- Lead and contribute to cross-functional design reviews
- Collaborate with product management, mechanical/thermal engineering, and manufacturing teams
- Provide engineering guidance during factory integration, testing, and production
- Mentor and support development of junior engineers4. Continuous Improvement & Standards
- Contribute to and refine Vertiv's electrical design standards and "playbook"Drive improvements in system interoperability, serviceability, manufacturability, and scalability
- Help adapt and operationalize internal guidelines for use in NPD and customer projects
- Stay current on emerging technologies and best practices in electrical design and data center infrastructure5. Customer & Business Support
- Support pre-sales activities, including solution development, quotations, and technical presentations
- Partner with procurement and suppliers on component selection and sourcing
- Provide technical support to manufacturing, testing, and field teams
- Manage multiple concurrent projects while balancing technical depth and execution timelines
Qualifications:
- RequiredBachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) or equivalent 7+ years of experience in electrical design for complex systems or NPDStrong understanding of electrical safety, EMC, and regulatory standards
- Experience with power system design, distribution, and system integration
- Ability to interpret and create electrical drawings, schematics, and specifications
- Strong problem-solving, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills
- Self-motivated with the ability to take ownership and drive results
- PreferredExperience in data center infrastructure, power systems, or integrated platforms
- Master's degree or Professional Engineer (PE) license
- Familiarity with tools such as Creo, Revit, AutoCAD (3D routing/modeling)
- Experience with factory integration, system validation, or customer deployments
- Knowledge of short-circuit and coordination studies
What We're Looking For:
- A systems thinker who can operate at both architecture and detailed design levels
- A hands-on engineer who thrives in fast-paced, multidisciplinary environments
- Someone who takes ownership, drives decisions, and delivers results
- A collaborator who can influence across engineering, product, and operations teams#LI-RB1
