Electrical Engineer, Modular R&D

FluidstackAustin, TX
$164,000 - $206,000

About The Position

The Modular team is designing a factory-built data center product for the largest AI compute buildout in history: engineered once, built repeatedly, and deployed faster than site-built construction allows. Examples of key problems the team is working on: Move data center construction from the field to the factory: designs that ship as pre-terminated assemblies and harnesses instead of site-pulled wire. Resolve the collisions between electrical, mechanical, and structural systems inside a module envelope where every routing path, penetration, and tolerance is contested. Turn first-article builds and factory feedback into design revisions fast enough that each unit builds cleaner than the last. Keep a repeatable product under configuration control while the design iterates between prototypes, factory runs, and field deployments.

Requirements

  • Engineered electrical systems hands-on for complex physical products, modular construction, or critical facilities: prefab power skids, switchgear OEM products, modular data centers, or repeatable critical-facility work at an EPC.
  • Supported production launches of your own designs, from first article through repeat builds.
  • Design for factory install, not field construction: think in harnesses and pre-terminated assemblies rather than site-pulled wire.
  • Drawings build clean. Fabricators and electricians rarely call, and when they do, you fix the drawing rather than explain it.
  • Work across disciplines instead of throwing problems over walls: when your raceway hits a structural member, you're in the room resolving it.
  • Iterate fast without losing configuration control, so every unit on the floor is built from a known revision.

Nice To Haves

  • PE license
  • fluency in electrical codes and panel standards (NEC, UL 508A)
  • data center power distribution experience
  • electrical CAD mastery (AutoCAD Electrical, Revit)
  • strong DFM instincts

Responsibilities

  • Engineer the electrical systems of the modular product, power distribution, grounding, and controls integration, from concept through released drawings.
  • Own the one-lines, panel schedules, and cable and raceway design, drawn to a standard the factory installs from and the field connects to without hand-holding.
  • Solve the integration problems where electrical meets structure and mechanical: routing, penetrations, and tolerances where the disciplines collide.
  • Run electrical support for the factory and the field: RFIs answered same-day, and every fix engineered into the next revision instead of living as a redline.
  • Drive prototyping and validation through mockups, fit checks, and first-article reviews you attend in person.

Benefits

  • We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
