Senior Principal Electrical Rack Engineer, Rack Integration Solutions

Responsibilities

• Lead the end‑to‑end integration and testing of rack electrical solutions, including medium/low voltage systems (48V DC up to +/- 400V or 800V DC), uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), and power distribution units (PDUs) in varying form factors and product lines.
• Participate in customer engagements and site visits to understand and document deployment constraints and gather feedback for design improvements.
• Build accurate rack power budgets and model electrical capacity for both current and future high‑density server or switch configurations.
• Manage relationships with electrical/power component vendors to build out a robust partner ecosystem consisting of PSUs, PDUs, bus bars, power shelves, and high voltage equipment.
• Ensure all rack designs meet safety and certification requirements such as NEC/NFPA, IEEE, and UL/IEC.
• Design, review, or integrate rack PDUs and power‑distribution components, including breaker configurations, metering, and load‑balancing features.
• Perform detailed failure‑mode analysis, including FMEA and root‑cause investigations for electrical defects or field issues.
• Define, validate, and improve factory electrical test strategies, including continuity testing, sequencing, load testing, and safety verification.
• Be highly proficient in developing, updating, and interpreting electrical one‑line diagrams for rack‑level and row‑level power architectures, ensuring accurate representation of power flow, grounding, redundancy, and protection devices.
• Collaborate with Architects/Compliance/Reliability and global vendors to align electrical architectures with total system design and international data center/power standards (e. g., OCP, ASHRAE, ANSI, TIA‑942).
