Submer enables organizations scaling AI to overcome the limits of traditional datacenters across power, compute density and efficiency.

We design and deliver scalable, high-density AI datacenter infrastructure built around industry-leading liquid cooling, supporting everything from early AI deployments to full-scale production environments.

Acting as a full-stack delivery partner, Submer provides advisory, design, build and IT integration through a single point of accountability, working with a deep ecosystem of technology specialists. This end-to-end approach accelerates time-to-AI while reducing operational cost, complexity and environmental impact.

The result is AI infrastructure that performs today, scales predictably and avoids the redesigns and inefficiencies slowing the market down.

We are seeking an Electrical Engineer with strong experience in server-level power distribution and data center electrical systems
. This hybrid role bridges IT hardware and facility infrastructure—covering everything from server-to-rack power design through to data hall distribution, PDUs, and MEP systems. The ideal candidate will bring a systems-level perspective to innovate, design, and deliver next-generation data center solutions in partnership with both OEMs and hyperscalers.

• Design, develop, and validate electrical architectures from server to rack level
  , including PDUs, busbars, and cabinet-level power systems.

• Engineer and review data center electrical infrastructure
  , including LV/MV distribution, switch gear, UPS, and generator integration.

• Collaborate cross-functionally with mechanical (MEP) and design & build teams to ensure electrical systems align with cooling and overall facility architecture.

• Partner with OEMs (e.g., AMD, Dell, Nvidia, Supermicro) to optimize electrical integration at the rack and chassis level.

• Support innovation and R&D projects
  , developing scalable electrical designs for next-generation immersion-cooled environments.

• Contribute to D&B project execution: design review, vendor selection, commissioning, and on-site validation.

• Develop and maintain documentation, electrical schematics, and test protocols compliant with global standards (IEC, NEC, IEEE, etc.).

• Ensure safety, reliability, and efficiency of all power systems while meeting sustainability and energy-efficiency objectives.

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.

• 5–10 years of experience in server power distribution and/or data center electrical systems
  .

• Proven track record with OEMs (AMD, Dell, Nvidia, Supermicro, etc.) or MEP/hyperscaler environments
  .

• Strong understanding of rack-level electrical design, PDUs, and power topologies
  .

• Experience with
  data center design standards (TIA-942, Uptime Institute, ASHRAE TC9.9).

• Familiarity with immersion cooling or advanced cooling methods a plus.

• Excellent communication and project coordination skills; ability to work in cross-functional and global teams.

Our job titles may span more than one job level. The actual base pay is dependent on a number of factors, such as transferable skills, work experience, business needs and market demands.

• Attractive compensation package refleting your expertise and experience.
