Job Title:

Sr. Mechanical Architect

Location:

Remote within the United States Pay Range: $200000 - $225000 ( Bonus opportunities available)

Define mechanical architecture for next-generation server, storage, networking, HPC, accelerator, and AI platforms that support enterprise and hyperscale data-center requirements. Evaluate current and emerging mechanical and thermal design trends within enterprise and hyperscale data centers to improve performance, reliability, and scalability. Architect new mechanical chassis, enclosures, and subassemblies for future product platforms, translating concepts into build-ready designs. Develop detailed mechanical and thermal design requirements and specifications, including modeling and evaluation of thermal characteristics for new platform designs.

Lead mechanical architecture from initial concept through validation and production, creating technical specifications and design requirements for external suppliers and supporting design reviews, testing, and issue resolution.

• At least 10 years of mechanical design and architecture experience involving enterprise servers, storage systems, or closely related data-center infrastructure.
• Demonstrated ownership of mechanical architecture for high-power, high-performance server platforms from concept through production.
• Advanced proficiency with PTC Creo 3D CAD and Windchill PLM.
• Extensive experience designing compute servers, storage servers, JBOD, and JBOF platforms, including strong understanding of major mechanical, electrical, thermal, and infrastructure components.
• Experience designing platforms that comply with established rack and data-center standards, including EIA rack standards, Open Rack V3 (ORv3), and/or custom rack architectures, plus experience integrating NVMe storage solutions and working knowledge of relevant storage and system form factors (U.2/U.3, E1.S/E3.S, SED, SFF, add-in cards/AICs, and DCSC/CM).

Opportunity to shape next-generation mechanical architectures that power enterprise and hyperscale data-center infrastructure. Role with end-to-end ownership—from concept and requirements through validation, production support, and supplier execution. Collaboration with global engineering, product-delivery, supply-chain, supplier, and customer teams across multiple time zones. Chance to apply advanced mechanical and thermal modeling to high-density compute platforms, including accelerator and AI systems. Platform to communicate complex technical concepts clearly across engineering teams, suppliers, customers, and senior stakeholders.
