• Advance the creation of engineering environments to support development, testing, and validation across partner ecosystems.

• Provide strategic direction and integration oversight for energy generation initiatives dedicated to scaling data centers, ensuring alignment with infrastructure and transmission requirements.

• Collaborate with Technical Program Management (TPM) programs to ensure initiatives are completed on time, within scope, and aligned across multiple engineering subject areas.

• Provide deep technical guidance to partner engineering teams to ensure compatibility, scalability, and future-readiness.

• Facilitate teamwork across R&D, peer engineering groups, and partner organizations to accelerate innovation and integration.

• Participate in site selection reviews to ensure infrastructure readiness, technical feasibility, and alignment with strategic goals.

• Anticipate and incorporate new technologies, market shifts, and partner capabilities into long-term strategy.

What we need to see:

• Master's or Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or Electrical Engineering or CE or equivalent experience.

• 15+ years of experience as a senior technical individual contributor (Distinguished Engineer, Principal Engineer, or equivalent) in mechanical, electrical, or automation systems.

• Minimum of years of experience in partner-driven engineering development, particularly with AEC, MEP, and energy infrastructure stakeholders.

• Expertise in AI applications for infrastructure and data center ecosystems.

• Outstanding ability to align multi-disciplinary systems across diverse collaborator groups.
