Key Responsibilities

• Lead the design, development and implementation of technical solutions for complex projects, involving multiple domains
• Integrate rack level optical interconnects
• Integrate all hardware and software elements within the AI compute rack, ensuring compatibility, connectivity, and optimal performance
• Set up, test, and qualify complete rack solutions to guarantee they meet or exceed stringent performance, reliability, and efficiency standards
• Integrate and configure smart PDUs (Power Distribution Units) to efficiently manage power distribution within the rack
• Maintain a comprehensive understanding of and proficiency in rack-level management functions, including real-time monitoring, control, and automation of critical rack components
• Execute hands-on lab racking and stacking procedures, including the assembly and setup of intricate, high-touch rack configurations
• Create and maintain thorough and detailed documentation for all rack-level integrations
• Work closely and collaboratively with a diverse range of cross-functional teams, including design engineers, program managers, customers, and vendors

What We’re Looking For

Education & Experience

• Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field with 3–5 years of professional experience.
• OR Master’s/PhD with 2–3 years of experience.
• Equivalent professional experience in lieu of a degree will also be considered.

Technical Requirements

• Integration Mastery: Minimum of 3 years of hands-on experience specifically in rack-level integration.
• AI Infrastructure: Deep understanding of AI compute rack configurations and the functional interplay of all integrated components.
• Design Tools: Proficiency in Mechanical and Thermal CAD tools.
• Systems Management: Strong grasp of rack-level management functions and industry best practices.
• Testing: Proven track record of qualifying high-performance rack solutions against strict reliability benchmarks.

Preferred Qualifications

• Direct experience with rack-level optical interconnects.
• Previous experience within a high-tech semiconductor or data center environment.
