Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Armada is a hyperscaler for the edge that delivers modular AI infrastructure and ruggedized, deployable compute for customers worldwide. The Electrical Design Engineer will own electrical designs for modular containerized data centers from single-line development through commissioning, conduct power system studies, review vendor submittals, support manufacturing partners, and assist with field deployments and troubleshooting.
Responsibilities
- Develop and maintain electrical designs for modular containerized data centers: single-line diagrams, load calculations, panel schedules, grounding, cable sizing, and raceway layouts across multiple low-voltage distribution standards (480 V and other international LV systems)
- Run protective device coordination, arc flash, and short-circuit studies in SKM, ETAP, or equivalent. Produce labels and coordination reports that will be used in the field
- Review and redline vendor submittals for UPS systems, battery systems, cooling distribution units, switchgear, main distribution boards, PDUs, and generator/ATS packages. Hold vendors accountable to the spec; flag discrepancies early
- Support manufacturing partners: answer RFIs, resolve conflicts on layout and piping/cable routing, and participate in factory witness testing
- Contribute to multi-jurisdictional compliance across a range of international electrical, fire, and mission-critical facility codes, and coordinate with local Authorities Having Jurisdiction
- Produce clear engineering documentation: Statements of Requirements, design basis memos, block diagrams, and commissioning procedures. If you hate writing, this is not the job
- Work alongside mechanical, controls, structural, and fire protection engineers - and with external consultants. You will be expected to push back when something is wrong, regardless of seniority
- Support field commissioning and troubleshooting, including occasional international travel to manufacturing partner sites, deployments, and trade events
Skills
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from an accredited program
- 3-7 years of post-degree experience in electrical design, with at least 2 years in data centers, mission-critical facilities, industrial power, or equivalent complex power distribution
- Demonstrated working knowledge of the NEC (NFPA 70) and, ideally, one or more IEC-based national codes. Multi-jurisdictional design experience is a strong plus
- Hands-on experience with protection coordination and arc flash software (SKM PowerTools, ETAP, EasyPower, or similar)
- Proficiency with AutoCAD Electrical and/or Revit MEP, plus Bluebeam Revu (or equivalent) for submittal markup
- Familiarity with UPS systems (double-conversion topology, battery sizing, parallel operation), medium- and low-voltage switchgear, transformers, and generator/ATS integration
- Ability to read mechanical and structural drawings well enough to catch interdisciplinary conflicts before they hit manufacturing
- Clear written communication. You will be writing RFI responses, submittal reviews, and technical memos read by vendors and executives
- PE or EIT licensure is a plus; neither is required
- Experience with containerized or modular/prefabricated data center products
- Knowledge of high-density liquid-cooled GPU systems and their electrical implications - inrush, harmonics, rack-level power distribution, busway
- Working familiarity with battery chemistries beyond VRLA and lithium-ion, and with UL 9540A or equivalent large-scale battery testing requirements
- Familiarity with NFPA 70E, NFPA 75/76, NFPA 110, and NFPA 855 as they apply to mission-critical and energy storage installations
- Experience coordinating with multiple AHJs and international insurance bodies on mission-critical approvals
- Exposure to BMS/DCIM integration, BACnet/Modbus, and the electrical side of controls handoffs
- Experience working with external manufacturing partners and consultants across multiple time zones
Benefits
- Equity
- Medical, dental, and vision (subsidized cost)
- Health savings accounts (HSA), flexible spending accounts (FSA), and dependent care FSAs (DCFSA)
- Retirement plan options, including 401(k) and Roth 401(k)
- Unlimited paid time off (PTO)
- 14 paid company holidays per year
- Remote work
