About the role

Senior Electrical Engineer – Hyperscale Data Centers | 100% Remote (US) Want to design the infrastructure behind the world's biggest cloud and AI platforms, from home? I'm working with a specialist data center engineering consultancy that has spent decades designing mission-critical facilities for the largest hyperscale and colocation operators in the world. Their engineers are behind some of the most advanced data center campuses in North America. They're now growing their electrical team and want a Senior Electrical Engineer to lead design on their next round of hyperscale projects. This role is fully remote. You'll get the project quality of a top-tier consultancy without a commute or a move. What you'll work on: Multi-building hyperscale campuses, many with 100MW+ capacity and some running into the hundreds of megawattsAI and high-density compute facilities, which need new approaches to power distribution Greenfield campuses and fast-track expansions for household-name cloud providers Projects across the US and internationally, often repeat work for the same clients, so you'll see programs develop over several years

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
