## About the role

We're building high-density compute infrastructure at scale, and we're hiring an Electrical Engineer to own power distribution inside the rack. You'll define how power gets from the facility tap-off to every server PSU in racks. That means selecting PDUs and power shelves, laying out busbars, assigning outlets and phases, and making sure every rack stays up when a feed goes down. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- B.S. in Electrical Engineering or a closely related field
- [5+] years of electrical design experience, including at least [3] years designing high-power distribution at the rack, module, or system level (data center, hyperscale, AI hardware, EV, energy storage, or aerospace)
- Direct design experience with PDUs, busbars, power shelves, battery or power electronics distribution, or server power delivery, not only facility-level MEP design
- Strong command of redundancy architectures, phase balancing, circuit sizing, inrush, and fault and failure-mode behavior
- Experience taking power designs through testing, integration, or commissioning
- Proficiency producing elevations, load schedules, and one-line diagrams (AutoCAD, Revit, Visio, or similar)
