Electrical Engineer - Power Systems

NetSuite is seeking a motivated Electrical Engineer and Technical Lead to drive solutions for complex, large-scale data center power challenges. The role involves leading technical programs related to power generation, battery storage systems, microgrids, and shaping executive decision-making for power infrastructure.

Responsibilities:

• Own electrical outcomes for high-complexity, high-impact programs driving technical decisions, managing tradeoffs, and integrating input from multiple stakeholders
• Provide electrical technical leadership to resolve critical power-related issues and reduce recurrence through root-cause analysis and corrective actions
• Architect and support on-site generation systems (gas turbines, reciprocating engines), including fuel systems, emissions controls, and heat-recovery integration
• Lead electrical discipline execution across design and delivery, optimizing scope, schedule, and quality, commissioning readiness; provide feedback to partner teams to improve standards and guidelines
• Partner with architects to develop future-state data center power architecture concepts and reference designs
• Evaluate emerging generation and storage technologies, identifying the most practical and scalable paths to deployment
• Lead the evaluation and adoption of new power technologies (e.g., fuel cells, advanced battery storage systems, microgrid controllers, solid-state transformers) and develop guidelines and standards
• Lead troubleshooting of complex electrical system events
