Job description

Role Title Lead Modular Systems Architect Advanced Cooling Solutions Primary Domain Cooling systems, CDU skids/modules, control panels, automation and monitoring systems Function Product Modularization, Controls Engineering, System Architecture Experience 10 to 15+ years in Automation, Controls, Electromechanical systems, Thermal systems

  1. Position Summary Define the modularization strategy, product architecture, packaging philosophy, and deployment approach for scalable cooling systems ranging from 2 MW prototypes to future multi-megawatt commercial platforms. This role requires close collaboration with controls, mechanical, manufacturing, and thermal engineering teams.

  2. Key Responsibilities * Develop the modularization strategy for advanced liquid cooling systems. * Convert stick-built engineering designs into modular, transportable, factory-assembled products. * Define modular product architecture, including module sizing, interfaces, and scalability. * Establish standard SKUs to support multiple cooling capacities and customer configurations. * Define mechanical, piping, electrical, instrumentation, and control interfaces between modules. * Collaborate with the Control Logic Architect to ensure modular control architecture aligns with the physical product design. * Lead Design for Manufacturing (DFM), Design for Assembly (DFA), and Design for Serviceability initiatives. * Optimize products for transportation, installation, maintenance, and future expansion. * Work with thermal, process, and mechanical engineers to balance performance, footprint, manufacturability, and cost. * Support prototype validation and transition from engineering development to commercialization. * Participate in customer and partner workshops to define future product roadmaps.

  3. Required Technical Competencies * Modular plant design. * Industrial equipment packaging. * Skid-mounted system development. * Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA). * Product configuration management and SKU strategy. * CAD and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) tools. * Interface management across mechanical, electrical, piping, and controls disciplines. * Manufacturing process optimization and industrialization.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering / Electrical Engineering,

Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related discipline.

  • 12 18+ years of experience in large industrial equipment design and modular product development.
  • Demonstrated experience converting engineered systems into standardized modular products.
  • Strong understanding of mechanical systems, piping layouts, equipment integration, and industrial packaging.
  • Experience leading multidisciplinary engineering teams through concept development and product realization.
  1. Soft Skills & Leadership Expectations * Strong system-thinking mindset. * Innovative and comfortable working in greenfield product development. * Ability to simplify complex engineering systems into scalable product platforms. * Excellent collaboration and communication skills across multiple engineering disciplines. * Passion for developing next-generation industrial products. * Willingness to travel internationally for customer and partner engagements.
