This role is critical in translating hyperscale data center requirements into robust, scalable, and manufacturable systems for next-gen AI/ML (GPU/CPU), cloud infrastructure, and network deployments. This person will oversee end‑to‑end rack development – from scoping and initial architecture review of customer requirements, through validation and deployment. This person will also drive cross‑functional collaboration, technical innovation, and continuous improvement across multiple datacenter programs.What will you do?Lead complex, multi‑disciplinary hardware programs – coordinating mechanical, thermal, electrical, supply chain, and manufacturing teams – while aligning requirements, driving schedules, and ensuring successful delivery of integrated rack, network, and cooling solutions. Develop and maintain bill of materials (BOMs), cable BOMs, alternate sourcing strategies, test plans, and engineering change orders (ECOs). Assemble, fit‑check, and mechanically integrate complex rack systems, including liquid loop components, quick‑disconnects, manifolds, and power distribution. Manage relationships with mechanical L11 component vendors, including rack, PDUs, switches, cables, and packaging solutions. Lead L11 rack shock and vibration qualification efforts, partnering with third-party test laboratories to develop test plans, obtain quotations, align on pass/fail criteria, and ensure test methodologies are appropriately benchmarked against applicable ASTM, ISTA, and other relevant industry standards. Create technical documentation, including rack assembly instructions, 2D mechanical drawings, test reports, SOPs, and customer‑facing specifications. Participate in customer engagements and site visits to understand deployment constraints (white-glove services) and gather feedback for design improvements. Lead the specification and validation of rack‑level power architecture, including power distribution unit (PDU) selection, detailed power budget and load‑balancing calculations (wye vs. delta, 3ph vs. 1ph), and compatibility with global power plug and connector standards. Understanding of rack installation constraints, maintenance access, and serviceability in rack mechanical infrastructure. Conduct root cause analysis and corrective actions for mechanical failures or field issues. Collaborate with compliance and certification teams to ensure mechanical designs meet global regulatory requirements (e.g., UL, CE, ISTA, ASTM). May perform other duties and responsibilities as assigned. How will you get here?
