About this role
Hyper Solutions is a company that specializes in designing electrical power distribution solutions for data centers and critical infrastructure. The Applications Engineer role involves collaborating with Sales, Engineering, and Manufacturing to create reliable and compliant power distribution systems tailored to customer needs.
Responsibilities:
- Hands-on experience with mission-critical data center power distribution equipment, including switchboards, PDUs, RPPs, STSs, transformers, breakers, metering, and power quality systems
- Partner with Sales and customers to configure reliable, redundant data center power distribution solutions aligned with Tier I–IV architectures
- Develop and review one-line diagrams, system configurations, and technical designs in support of RFQs and proposals
- Ensure all solutions meet applicable codes and standards (NEC, UL, ANSI, NEMA, NFPA, IEEE) and data center reliability expectations
- Evaluate customer requirements and design scalable, fault-tolerant power systems for critical infrastructure environments
- Prepare submittals, including drawings, bills of material, and technical documentation
- Collaborate with Manufacturing to ensure designs are accurate, manufacturable, and aligned with production timelines
- Support RFI and RFP technical responses and customer presentations
- Assist with design reviews, factory acceptance testing support, and field issue resolution when required
- Provide technical training and knowledge sharing to Sales and internal stakeholders
- Support continuous improvement of application standards, tools, and documentation
Requirements:
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) or a related field
- Experience in data center or critical power infrastructure, including switchboards, PDUs, RPPs, STSs, transformers, and low-voltage distribution systems
- Strong understanding of one-line diagrams, system architecture, and electrical equipment configuration
- Knowledge of RFQ/RFI/RFP processes and customer specification review for data center projects
- Working knowledge of LV switchboard design and manufacturing considerations
- Familiarity with protective devices (thermal magnetic breakers, MCCBs, power breakers), metering systems (PQM, BCM), and power quality solutions
- Strong technical communication skills and ability to interface with customers, Sales, and Engineering
- Knowledge of PLC-based monitoring and control systems
- Experience developing or using configuration tools for application engineering
- Familiarity with UL certification processes and compliance documentation
