Key Responsibilities
Hardware Platform Development & Integration
- Lead integration of rack-level hardware platforms for data center deployment
- Ensure designs meet requirements for mechanical integrity, thermal performance, serviceability, and scale
- Drive system-level design across compute, cooling, and infrastructure interfaces
- Partner with internal and external teams to validate designs
Data Center Interface & Deployment Readiness
- Define platform interfaces with infrastructure, including:
- Liquid cooling (CDUs, fluid routing, connections)
- Installation, transport, and handling
- Facility interfaces (space, power, cooling, serviceability)
- Ensure deployment readiness and resolve gaps impacting scale
Telemetry & Observability
- Define telemetry requirements (power, temperature, flow, pressure, system health)
- Ensure instrumentation is enabled at deployment
- Partner with software/data teams to support monitoring and analysis
- Identify and close gaps in telemetry coverage and data quality
Standards & Documentation
- Drive standardization across rack platforms
- Establish best practices for connections, transport, leak detection, and instrumentation
- Maintain documentation as a source of truth
Cross-Functional Leadership
- Collaborate across OHD, engineering, operations, supply chain, and software teams
- Align with external partners (OEMs, silicon vendors)
- Drive technical decisions and bring structure to complex efforts
Issue Resolution & Continuous Improvement
- Track and resolve platform issues, especially during early deployment
- Lead root cause analysis and corrective actions
- Use field data and telemetry insights to improve designs and processes
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or closely related discipline
- 6+ years in hardware engineering, mechanical systems, or data center infrastructure
- Experience with complex, rack- or system-level hardware
- Strong foundation in mechanical, thermal, and/or fluid systems
- Experience with hardware instrumentation/telemetry is a plus
- Proven ability to drive outcomes across teams
- Strong problem-solving and communication skills
Preferred Qualifications
- Data center infrastructure and rack-level design experience
- Familiarity with liquid cooling (e.g., direct-to-chip, CDU systems)
- Experience with platform standardization or system integration at scale
- Experience working with hardware vendors or OEMs
- Exposure to high-density compute platforms (e.g., GPUs)
- Experience supporting deployment or commissioning
- Familiarity with telemetry or performance monitoring systems
What We’re Looking For
- Ownership: Takes responsibility beyond defined scope
- Systems Thinking: Understands hardware, infrastructure, and operations holistically
- Execution: Drives progress in ambiguity
- Collaboration: Influences across teams
- Detail Orientation: Ensures designs are practical and deployment-ready
