The opportunity
OpenAI, in close collaboration with our capital partners, is building the world’s most advanced AI infrastructure ecosystem. The team defines the technical direction for next-generation data centers and develops the architectures needed to support rapidly evolving AI hardware and workload requirements.
What you'll do
Develop advanced electrical architectures for high-density AI data centers,: from utility interconnection through rack-level power delivery.
Translate evolving compute-platform requirements into electrical capacity,: topology, redundancy, power-quality, protection, and control requirements.
Create conceptual designs, basis-of-design documents, specifications,: one-line diagrams, design standards, and reusable reference architectures.
Model electrical-system performance, capacity, efficiency, reliability, fault: conditions, transient behavior, and failure scenarios.
Evaluate emerging technologies such as medium-voltage distribution,: solid-state power conversion, advanced UPS systems, energy storage, alternative generation, and direct-current architectures.
Build technical and economic comparisons across competing design approaches,: including reliability, efficiency, scalability, cost, constructability, maintainability, and deployment speed.
What they're looking for
- Develop prototypes, test plans, acceptance criteria, and validation: frameworks for new electrical technologies and system architectures.
- Lead laboratory, factory, pilot-site, and field testing to validate design: assumptions and identify performance or integration gaps.
- Partner with mechanical and thermal engineers to optimize power and cooling: architectures as an integrated system.
- Collaborate with AI hardware and compute teams to understand workload: behavior, rack density, utilization, power variability, and future platform requirements.
