You'll have the desire to learn from new challenges and the problem solving and communication skills to work within a highly interactive and experienced team. Candidates must show a hands-on passion for their work and be able to communicate their ideas and concepts both verbally, and visually. Candidates must demonstrate an ability to integrate feedback and to respond quickly to changing contexts and work environments., Experience in developing functional specifications, design verification plans and functional test procedures - Experience in server technologies such as, thermal, mechanical, power, and signal integrity - Experience in compute and storage server architecture and design for large scale applications - 5+ years experience in mechanical design for server technologies or Data Center applications Preferred Qualifications - Experience working with interdisciplinary teams to execute product design from concept to production - Experience with the project management of technical projects - Proficient with CAD tools such as Creo or Solidworks. ## Description * Perform mechanical design and development for rack sub-systems and associated components (frame, rails, chassis, air dams, sesimic brackets, stabilizers, blanking panels) * Validate subsystems and components meet NPI program requirements * Participate in the cross-discipline design process working with other HW and SW team members to develop optimized integrated solutions * Conduct failure analysis and solution validation * Manage interaction with overseas resources * Provide mentorship and technical reviews to a team of mechanical/thermal design engineers A day in the life The average week is a mixture of using engineering tools (CAD and thermal simulation), data analysis, meetings (internal and vendors), test report reviews, design reviews, and communicating via tickets or emails to make design and project decisions. About the team This team is responsible for the end-to-end lifecycle of mechanical components that enable high-performance, large-scale data center systems. Engineers work as primary owners of their components, partnering closely with suppliers and manufacturing teams to ensure solutions perform reliably from initial development through deployment in the field. Our mission is to deliver highly reliable, scalable solutions that support increasingly demanding compute workloads. This includes solving challenges related to performance and long-term operation in real-world data center environments. Engineers develop deep expertise in their component domains, enabling more effective design reviews, targeted validation strategies, and rapid resolution of issues observed during development and in production systems. ## Related Videos - [Alibaba Big Data and Machine Learning Technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/37-alibaba-big-data-and-machine-learning-technology) - [From Zero to Hero: NextJS 13 and Tailwind CSS for Beginners](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/766-from-zero-to-hero-nextjs-13-and-tailwind-css-for-beginners) - [More efficient software for more efficient microchips](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1164-more-efficient-software-for-more-efficient-microchips) - [PySpark - Combining Machine Learning & Big Data](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/44-pyspark-combining-machine-learning-big-data) - [Building Better with Nuxt 3](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/320-building-better-with-nuxt-3) - [Remote Driving on Plant Grounds with State-of-the-Art Cloud Technologies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/251-remote-driving-on-plant-grounds-with-state-of-the-art-cloud-technologies) ## Related Articles - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Software Engineer Career: Things You Should Know](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/143-software-engineer-career-things-you-should-know) - [What is Software Engineering?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/289-what-is-software-engineering) - [The 12 Best Jobs for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/401-the-12-best-jobs-for-software-engineers) - [Where To Find Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/396-where-to-find-software-engineering-jobs) - [Is Software Engineering Hard?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/448-is-software-engineering-hard)
