AI Infrastructure Deployment Engineer
Quick Summary
This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for an AI Infrastructure Deployment Engineer based in the United States.
This remote opportunity is ideal for an electrical engineering professional who wants to help build the next generation of distributed AI computing infrastructure. You will lead the technical evaluation and deployment of modular GPU-compute systems across industrial, commercial, and residential properties throughout the United States. Combining field assessments with project execution, you will determine whether sites have the power capacity, connectivity, equipment, and permitting conditions needed for successful installations. You will coordinate utilities, contractors, engineering consultants, network providers, and property teams to deliver safe, reliable infrastructure. The role offers substantial ownership of technical due diligence, electrical upgrades, commissioning, and deployment standards. Your work will help transform existing properties into infrastructure capable of supporting advanced AI workloads while preserving normal building operations.
- Conduct site visits across the United States to evaluate electrical readiness and determine the feasibility of deploying modular GPU-compute infrastructure.
- Review electrical one-line diagrams, service capacity, transformer and switchgear ratings, feeder capacity, breaker availability, backup power systems, grounding, and physical site constraints.
- Identify required utility upgrades, electrical work, long-lead equipment, permitting requirements, technical risks, estimated costs, and project schedules.
- Manage electrical design coordination, contractor bidding, equipment submittals, construction activities, testing, commissioning, and final project handover.
- Coordinate with utilities, electrical contractors, engineering consultants, network providers, equipment vendors, and property teams to ensure successful deployment.
- Validate fiber routes, carrier availability, building entry requirements, network redundancy, and connectivity activation plans in collaboration with network providers.
- Develop standardized site-readiness criteria and prepare concise go/no-go investment assessments for each property.
- Collaborate with compute, cooling, controls, and property teams to ensure installations operate safely and reliably without disrupting building operations or negatively affecting residents and tenants.
- Maintain accurate as-built drawings, electrical capacity records, commissioning documentation, and vendor performance data.
- Establish repeatable technical standards and deployment processes to improve consistency, efficiency, and reliability across the distributed infrastructure portfolio.
- Own technical due diligence and deployment execution while working with licensed design professionals and local contractors for engineering design and regulated work.
- Monitor project progress, manage field-level technical risks, and ensure installations meet applicable safety, performance, and operational requirements.
