Sr. Product Engineer - Electrical

Job Description Job Summary The Senior Product Engineer is responsible for the technical definition, development, integration, and lifecycle support of modular, rack- and row-based IT infrastructure solutions. This role serves as a key technical interface to customers, translating customer requirements into robust, compliant, and manufacturable product solutions while ensuring alignment with internal engineering standards and product roadmaps. The Product Engineer works cross-functionally with Product Management, Systems Engineering, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Sales, and Quality teams to ensure solutions meet customer expectations for performance, reliability, serviceability, and scalability. The role combines hands-on engineering execution, systems thinking, and direct customer engagement throughout the product and project lifecycle. Responsibilities * Own the technical definition of product solutions, ensuring form, fit, function, and interoperability across mechanical, electrical, and thermal subsystems. * Analyze and document system-level requirements for rack-, row-, and aisle-based solutions, including mechanical architecture, interfaces, and integration constraints. * Apply and help evolve internal engineering standards, guidelines, and best practices to ensure consistent, scalable product designs. * Support New Product Development (NPD) activities, including concept evaluation, requirements definition, design reviews, validation, and release. * Validate engineering documentation, BOMs, system layouts, compatibility matrices, and integration guidelines. * Act as a technical point of contact for customers, participating in customer meetings, workshops, design reviews, and solution presentations. * Translate customer specifications, site requirements, and operational needs into compliant, manufacturable product solutions. * Support pre-sales activities by contributing technical input to proposals, quotations, drawings, and solution narratives. * Address customer technical questions, deviations, and change requests throughout the sales and execution lifecycle. * Represent the "voice of the customer" within engineering by providing structured feedback into product improvements and roadmap discussions. * Ensure product designs comply with applicable mechanical, electrical, and safety standards (e.g., ASME, ASHRAE, IEC, UL, ISO, NEC, regional codes). * Support and communicate updates to internal standards or "standards playbooks," ensuring practical application within active projects. * Participate in design reviews, risk assessments (FMEA), and root cause analysis for quality, manufacturability, and field issues. * Partner with Quality and Manufacturing teams to support production issues, validation testing, and continuous improvement initiatives. * Work closely with Product Management to align technical solutions with product strategy and customer segmentation. * Collaborate with Manufacturing and Supply Chain on component selection, sourcing strategies, and production readiness. * Coordinate with Electrical, Thermal, and Systems Engineering to ensure cohesive system-level solutions. * Support global engineering teams and suppliers as needed, contributing to consistent technical outcomes across regions. Requirements * BSME, BSEE, or a related engineering discipline; master's degree or Professional Engineer (PE) license is a plus.
