Job Description
The Power Systems Engineer is responsible for designing, analyzing, and optimizing electrical power systems that support large-scale infrastructure such as data centers, industrial facilities, and high-performance computing environments. This role ensures the safe, reliable, and efficient distribution of electrical power throughout critical operations.
The Power Systems Engineer performs system modeling and load analysis, develops electrical distribution designs, and evaluates power reliability and redundancy strategies. The role works closely with infrastructure, facilities, and operations teams to ensure electrical systems can support growing compute and facility demands.
Responsibilities
• Design and analyze electrical power distribution systems
• Perform power flow, short-circuit, and fault analysis
• Develop electrical system models and simulations
• Collaborate with utilities on grid connections and interconnection requirements
• Support electrical equipment selection including transformers, switchgear, and protection systems
• Identify opportunities to improve system reliability and efficiency
• Support expansion planning for high-demand facilities such as data centers
Qualifications
• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
• Experience with power system modeling tools such as ETAP, SKM, or PSCAD
• Knowledge of high-voltage and medium-voltage systems
• Understanding of electrical protection and power reliability principles
• Experience working with large infrastructure or industrial systems preferred
• U.S. Citizenship required
• Ability to obtain and maintain a federal security clearance preferred; active clearance is a plus
Pipeline Role Notice
This position is part of an ongoing talent pipeline initiative. Organizations building large-scale computing infrastructure frequently anticipate future hiring needs for power engineering roles as new facilities and data centers are developed. Candidates who express interest may be considered for upcoming opportunities as projects move into development or expansion phases. Engagement with candidates may include initial conversations, skill alignment discussions, and potential consideration for future openings.
