Job description

Product Management Consultant – Datacenter Power & Cooling Infrastructure

PowerEdge & Datacenter Infrastructure Product Management Team

Product Development Management is a fast-paced environment where innovative thinking is prized. Our team focuses on the delivery of products and computer-based systems for external customers. We lead and deliver the entire lifecycle from product definition and planning through to production and release, and we oversee modifications, upgrades and maintenance of the product line. To make the whole process run smoothly and seamlessly, we're experts in project management, from initiation through to delivery, and liaise with other departments on technical matters.

Join us to do the best work of your career and make a profound social impact as a Product Management Consultant – Datacenter Power & Cooling Infrastructure on our PowerEdge Product Management Team in Round Rock, Texas or Hopkinton, Massachusetts.

What you'll achieve

As a Product Management Consultant, you will define and drive the roadmap for power and cooling infrastructure offerings — rack power distribution, PDU and busway solutions, liquid cooling (direct-to-chip and immersion), coolant distribution units (CDUs), rear-door heat exchangers, and thermal management solutions — that complement and unlock the full performance of the PowerEdge server portfolio, particularly for AI and high-density deployments. This role requires deep expertise in datacenter power and thermal technologies, a strong grasp of the datacenter market and competitive landscape, and the ability to work closely with cross-functional teams including the CTO organization, engineering, supply chain, and ecosystem partners.

You will:

• Own the end-to-end product lifecycle for power and cooling infrastructure offerings — from market definition and requirements through launch, sustaining, and end of life — in close partnership with CTO, engineering, and strategy teams.
• Define the power and cooling roadmap in lockstep with PowerEdge server and AI/GPU platform roadmaps, ensuring thermal and power solutions are ready to support next-generation, high-density compute at launch.
• Evaluate build/buy/partner options for cooling and power technologies, and manage relationships with ODM/OEM partners, cooling vendors, and facility infrastructure providers.
• Develop solid business cases — including attach-rate models, solution bundling, and TCO analysis — and present to senior leadership to make the case for your portfolio.
• Evangelize Dell's power and cooling offerings, and their value to the PowerEdge portfolio, with sales, Centers of Competency, partners, and customers.
• Work with cross-functional teams across engineering, supply chain, procurement, and services to drive roadmap planning and execution.

Take the first step towards your dream career

Every Dell Technologies team member brings something unique to the table. Here's what we are looking for with this role:

Essential Requirements

• Typically requires 12+ years of related experience in a professional role with a Bachelor's degree; or 8+ years and a Master's degree; or a PhD with 5+ years of experience; or equivalent experience.
• Deep technical expertise in datacenter power and cooling infrastructure, including: liquid cooling architectures (direct-to-chip cold plates, CDUs, manifolds, immersion cooling, facility water integration); rack-level power delivery (PDUs, busways, 48V and high-voltage DC trends, PSU and battery backup design, power capping and telemetry); and facility-level context (datacenter electrical/mechanical design, PUE and efficiency metrics, and how rack-level products interact with facility constraints as AI racks scale beyond 100kW).
• Working knowledge of relevant standards and ecosystems — ASHRAE thermal guidelines, Open Compute Project (OCP) cooling environments — and familiarity with enterprise compute, AI/GPU platforms, storage, and networking sufficient to align power/cooling solutions with the broader portfolio.
• Demonstrated commercial acumen, including BOM costing, P&L ownership, pricing strategy, and experience building business cases for attach/complementary products (attach rates, solution bundling, and power/cooling TCO modeling).
• End-to-end program leadership experience defining projects, collecting requirements, and coordinating cross-functional efforts across supply chain, engineering, procurement, and services to scope, schedule, and deploy complex hardware/infrastructure solutions, using quantitative data to prioritize decision-making.
• Customer-facing executive presence with the ability to engage credibly with enterprise and CSP stakeholders — including datacenter facilities teams, mechanical/electrical engineers, and consulting engineers — on technical power and cooling architecture as well as delivery and business commitments, while driving cross-functional alignment across a matrixed organization without direct authority.
• Ability to operate in ambiguity — navigating pre-RTS products, evolving AI architectures and thermal requirements, constrained supply environments, and shifting customer requirements with strategic problem-solving and execution discipline.

Desirable Requirements

• Bachelor's or advanced degree in mechanical or electrical engineering, or a related discipline.
• Prior experience at a datacenter cooling or power vendor (e.g., thermal solutions, CDU, PDU/UPS suppliers), or in hyperscale/colocation infrastructure engineering.
• Hands-on experience deploying liquid-cooled AI/HPC clusters or high-density rack solutions at enterprise or CSP scale.
