Lead Electrical Architect - Expeditionary AI/HPC Data Centers

The role

You will own the end-to-end architecture of AI Factory tactical data centers and deployable command and control centers. You will translate strategic Concepts of Operations into electrical requirements and design modular, air-transportable systems for austere environments.

What you will do

• Own the end-to-end architecture of AI Factory tactical data centers and deployable command and control centers
• Conduct architectural trades balancing performance, manufacturing feasibility, and future scalability
• Translate high-level CONOPS into detailed electrical requirements, architectures and functional modules
• Design air-transportable, modular systems that are rapidly deployable and operationally credible
• Build infrastructure optimized for austere and contested environments
• Work with Lattice and AI/ML teams to ensure physical infrastructure meets software requirements
• Partner with defense customers to translate operational requirements into technical architectures
• Lead prototyping, field testing, and operational validation through military exercises and real-world deployments
• Drive systems from concept through production at scale
• Allocate functions to specific electrical modules and subsystems

Required qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related technical field
• 5+ years of engineering experience designing and deploying electrical products
• Proven ability to think strategically and define long-term architectural vision
• Familiarity with embedded systems hardware, including MCUs, CPUs, and FPGAs
• Experience with full-cycle ECU/LRU electronics design, including PCBA design
• Experience with harnessing design and connector selection
• Successful track record of releasing products to production and delivering to end-users at scale
• Excellent communication, collaboration, and influencing skills
• Experience leading cross functional teams on complex electronics projects
• U.S. Person status required (U.S. citizen, permanent resident, refugee, or asylee)
• Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance
• Must be able to travel up to 15% of the time

Nice to have

• Background in 3-phase power distribution, MV/LV grid scale power distribution, or EV/HV battery systems
• Has been through at least three full electrical product design cycles from conception to production release
• 8+ years of engineering experience designing and deploying electrical products
• Experience with tactical military systems, ruggedized computing, or deployable infrastructure in austere or contested environments
• Knowledge of military environmental standards (MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-461) and expeditionary deployability requirements
• Hands-on experience with containerized or modular data center designs (ISO containers, mobile facilities)
• Experience with expeditionary or forward operating base (FOB) infrastructure
• Knowledge of electromagnetic hardening and operation in GPS-denied or communications-contested environments
• Experience with SCIF design or accreditation for classified environments
• Background in aerospace, defense, autonomous vehicles, EVs, or safety-critical industries

Benefits

• Highly competitive equity grants
• Comprehensive, competitive benefits package available at little to no cost to employees

Before you apply

• U.S. Person status required (U.S. citizen, permanent resident, refugee, or asylee)
• Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance
• Consent to pre-employment risk, integrity, and due diligence screening
