AI Infrastructure Deployment Engineer

Accountabilities:

• Conduct site visits across the United States to evaluate electrical readiness and determine the feasibility of deploying modular GPU-compute infrastructure.
• Review electrical one-line diagrams, service capacity, transformer and switchgear ratings, feeder capacity, breaker availability, backup power systems, grounding, and physical site constraints.
• Identify required utility upgrades, electrical work, long-lead equipment, permitting requirements, technical risks, estimated costs, and project schedules.
• Manage electrical design coordination, contractor bidding, equipment submittals, construction activities, testing, commissioning, and final project handover.
• Coordinate with utilities, electrical contractors, engineering consultants, network providers, equipment vendors, and property teams to ensure successful deployment.
• Validate fiber routes, carrier availability, building entry requirements, network redundancy, and connectivity activation plans in collaboration with network providers.
• Develop standardized site-readiness criteria and prepare concise go/no-go investment assessments for each property.
• Collaborate with compute, cooling, controls, and property teams to ensure installations operate safely and reliably without disrupting building operations or negatively affecting residents and tenants.
• Maintain accurate as-built drawings, electrical capacity records, commissioning documentation, and vendor performance data.
• Establish repeatable technical standards and deployment processes to improve consistency, efficiency, and reliability across the distributed infrastructure portfolio.
• Own technical due diligence and deployment execution while working with licensed design professionals and local contractors for engineering design and regulated work.
• Monitor project progress, manage field-level technical risks, and ensure installations meet applicable safety, performance, and operational requirements.

Requirements:

• 4–8 years of professional experience in electrical engineering, electrical construction, commissioning, critical facilities, power generation, industrial infrastructure, data centers, or a related field.
• Ability to interpret electrical drawings, one-line diagrams, equipment submittals, and construction documentation.
• Practical knowledge of medium- and low-voltage electrical distribution systems, including switchgear, transformers, generators, UPS systems, battery energy storage systems (BESS), protection coordination, and power quality.
• Experience coordinating contractors, consultants, project schedules, and technical risks in field-based environments.
• Strong understanding of electrical infrastructure readiness, site constraints, and the technical considerations involved in deploying compute equipment.
• Ability and willingness to travel frequently to properties throughout the United States.
• Strong technical judgment, analytical thinking, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to assess complex site conditions and make informed recommendations.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to prepare technical assessments, project documentation, and investment recommendations.
• Ability to collaborate effectively across real estate, utilities, construction, engineering, networking, and technology teams.
• A proactive, independent approach to managing field activities and coordinating multiple stakeholders.

Preferred qualifications:

• Professional Engineer (PE) license or Engineer-in-Training (EIT) credential.
• Experience deploying or operating data-center infrastructure.
• Experience coordinating with utilities on service capacity, electrical upgrades, or power availability.
• Background in electrical contracting, project engineering, commissioning, or critical infrastructure deployment.

Role Scope and Work Arrangements:

• Remote-first position requiring the employee to reside in the United States.
• Frequent travel to properties across the country is an essential part of the role.
• The position owns technical due diligence, deployment standards, and execution but does not serve as the engineer of record.
• Licensed design professionals and local contractors support regulated engineering and construction activities.

Benefits:

• Competitive medical, dental, and vision insurance, with employer contributions toward employee and dependent premiums.
• Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) for medical expenses, dependent care, and parking.
• 401(k) plan with a 3% employer contribution, regardless of whether the employee contributes personally.
• Fully covered life insurance and short-term disability insurance.
• Significant equity opportunities through an employee stock grant program.
• Gympass membership benefit, including mental health resources.
• Flexible paid time off (PTO).
• Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
• Paid parental leave.
• Remote-first work environment.
