Lead MV Power Systems Engineer for Islanded AI Data Centers

Boom Technology, Inc.; Centennial (CO); On-site; USD 107,000 - 187,000; Full time

Job summary

Boom Supersonic is seeking an engineer to own the 13.8kV medium-voltage system end-to-end—from architecture through energization, testing, and field commissioning. You will be in the room and on the test floor, influencing outcomes at every stage.

The role requires deep MV experience with switchgear, protective relaying, and generator integration, plus ability to coordinate with mechanical and controls teams. It offers growth in a unique, high-power aerospace environment.

Qualifications

• Deep hands-on experience with medium-voltage systems — switchgear, breakers, protective relaying, grounding, and generator integration in industrial or power-generation environments.
• Solid understanding of rotating machinery: generator behavior, excitation, AVR systems, synchronization, and transient response under load, faults, and trips.
• Experience with protection coordination — relay selection, settings, differential and overcurrent schemes — and the ability to own that work from study through commissioning.
• Ability to read and produce clean MV electrical drawings (one-lines, wire diagrams, panel layouts) that can be built and commissioned without ambiguity.
• Comfort working across mechanical, controls, and instrumentation teams and translating between them when needed.

Responsibilities

• Define the MV architecture, single-line diagrams, protection philosophy, and concept of operations during preliminary design, including long-lead switchgear and generator circuit breaker specification and sourcing.
• Producing protection coordination studies, relay settings, and MV electrical drawings through detailed design.
• Leading first energization, relay commissioning, synchronization, load acceptance, and step-load testing.
