About the Job

Requirements

  • Around 5 years of experience in a lead engineer role, factory operations, or manufacturing of electrical or mechanical assemblies.
  • A strong understanding of low voltage electrical power systems, mechanical assemblies, cooling systems, and integrated modular solutions.
  • The ability to coordinate material readiness, production scheduling, resource planning, and cross-functional collaboration.
  • Experience reviewing technical drawings and bills of materials for electrical and mechanical assemblies.
  • Experience leading Factory Acceptance Tests and preparing Factory Acceptance Test documentation.
  • The ability to coordinate multidisciplinary production teams and communicate and document technical information effectively.
  • The ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously while maintaining quality and schedule discipline.
  • Fluency in English.

Responsibilities

  • Lead and coordinate electrical, mechanical, controls, and computer-aided design engineering teams to deliver complete and accurate issued-for-construction drawing packages, including single-line diagrams, general arrangement layouts, wiring schematics, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning and computational fluid dynamics layouts, grounding, fire systems, and network architecture.
  • Review and validate Sequence of Operations documentation for power, cooling, and controls systems to ensure alignment with solution architecture, customer specifications, and factory integration constraints.
  • Oversee preparation of commissioning documentation, including Factory Acceptance Test scripts, test procedures, load-bank plans, protection coordination files, and integrated system validation steps.
  • Resolve technical clashes early, including cable routing congestion, skid structural capacity, UPS and battery clearances, busbar interfaces, and programmable logic controller/supervisory control and data acquisition points lists.
  • Review electrical, mechanical, and controls design packages and ensure production teams fully understand the build requirements.
  • Conduct build readiness reviews with production, quality, health, safety, and environment, and supply chain teams to ensure all materials, drawings, jigs, and procedures are released before production starts.
  • Validate vendor-supplied equipment documentation and drawings for interface compliance and serviceability.
  • Allocate engineering resources and adjust workloads to meet build milestones and factory throughput targets.
  • Identify design, manufacturing, and integration risks early, including long lead items, interface gaps, thermal and harmonic limits, integration delays, and commissioning complexities.
  • Lead post-project reviews to capture lessons learned and improve future manufacturability, reliability, and cost performance.
  • Coach and mentor electrical, mechanical, and controls engineers to improve design quality, manufacturability awareness, and factory integration expertise.
  • Foster a culture of safety, precision, and accountability across engineering and production interactions.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience managing production work for prefabricated modules, data center equipment, power distribution units, or related industrial systems.

About the Company

Vertiv

Builds power and cooling systems for data centers

Vertiv builds power and cooling equipment that keeps data centers, communication networks, and industrial facilities running through outages and heavy computing loads. Its Liebert cooling systems manage the heat generated by servers, while its power products protect equipment and distribute electricity. The company sells equipment directly and through distributors, then earns additional revenue from installation, maintenance, spare parts, and services throughout the equipment life cycle. Its portfolio also includes racks and software for monitoring and managing IT equipment. Vertiv became a standalone company in 2016 and is headquartered in Westerville, Ohio.
