About this role
NetSuite is a part of Oracle that focuses on delivering innovative cloud solutions. The Data Center Electrical Systems & Rack Integration Engineer role is responsible for defining rack-level electrical architectures and ensuring the integration of new hardware platforms with OCI’s power infrastructure, while also validating electrical performance for large-scale compute environments.
Responsibilities:
- Define rack-level electrical architectures supporting high-density compute platforms
- Translate hardware electrical requirements into deployable rack specifications compatible with OCI data center power infrastructure
- Define integration requirements for rack electrical components including power shelves, rPDUs, busbars, cabling, and high-current connectors
- Establish rack-level power distribution, redundancy models, and protection boundaries in coordination with data center electrical infrastructure teams
- Participate in design reviews with hardware engineering teams to ensure new platforms integrate cleanly into OCI rack standards
- Define and support electrical characterization testing for new IT hardware platforms
- Develop testing methodologies to measure power consumption, transient load behavior, and electrical compatibility with rack power infrastructure
- Ensure characterization data supports rack design specifications, capacity planning models, and infrastructure planning
- Work with lab teams and vendors to validate electrical performance prior to deployment
- Define requirements for rack-level power telemetry and instrumentation
- Partner with software and data engineering teams to ensure telemetry from power shelves, rPDUs, and hardware sensors is accessible and usable at fleet scale
- Serve as the electrical domain expert within DCEAM across hardware engineering, facilities engineering, and operations teams
- Support development of rack standards and electrical interface specifications that enable consistent global deployments
