Modular Electrical Engineer – Data Center R&D

Fluidstack; San Francisco (CA); On-site; USD 164,000 - 206,000; Full time

Job summary

Fluidstack, based in San Francisco, is building a factory-built data center product for the largest AI compute deployment in history. You will engineer electrical systems, power distribution, grounding, and controls from concept through released drawings, with the factory in mind for repeatable, install-ready assemblies.

The role emphasizes hands-on electrical design for modular data centers, with strong CAD skills and a focus on manufacturability and fast iteration within a high-intensity

Qualifications

• You've engineered electrical systems hands-on for complex physical products, modular construction, or critical facilities.
• You've supported production launches of your own designs, from first article through repeat builds.
• You design for factory install, not field construction: you think in harnesses and pre-terminated assemblies rather than site-pulled wire.
• Your drawings build clean; fabrication and field teams rely on them with minimal questions.

Responsibilities

• Engineer the electrical systems 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.
• Resolve 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.
• Drive prototyping and validation through mockups, fit checks, and first-article reviews you attend in person.
