Chief Engineer, LV Switchboards & Distribution Busway
Hybrid (U.S. Remote)$260k - $310k + equityFull-timePosted 1mo ago
About the role
Lead design and release of Fluidstack's UL 891 LV switchboard and UL 857 distribution busway platforms, manage a engineering team, drive NRTL listing and testing programs, and collaborate with localization and vendors to deliver production-ready, scalable data center power infrastructure.
Responsibilities
- Own the clean-sheet design of Fluidstack's UL 891 LV switchboard and UL 857 distribution busway platforms, from bus and bracing calculations to released production drawings.
- Release both platforms for production within 12 months, running design, NRTL listing, and short-circuit test campaigns in parallel.
- Lead a dedicated team of electrical and mechanical engineers, backed by assigned drafting, compliance, and test staff from shared engineering services.
- Drive the listing programs end to end: test plans, witness testing at the NRTL, follow-up service setup, and the certification file the factory builds against.
- Work with localization teams to define required design upgrades and particularities: interconnect points, protection interfaces, transport and rigging limits, and seismic anchorage.
- Work with third party authorized vendors to deliver a consistent product across Fluidstack’s data center fleet.
Qualifications
- You've designed LV switchboards or busway at an OEM and personally carried a product through UL 891 or UL 857 listing, start to finish.
- You've run short-circuit withstand and temperature rise test campaigns and redesigned bus, bracing, or joints after a failed shot.
- You've made the contact system, joint, and plating decisions that determine whether a busway survives thousands of load cycles in service.
- You've designed for manufacturability at volume: sheet metal, plating, torque specifications, and assembly sequences a production line can hold shift after shift.
- You've led a product team through a compressed release schedule and held the line on test evidence when the schedule pushed back.
- You write ratings documentation and configuration rules clear enough that application engineers select the right product without calling you.
