Solution Architect (Rack Integration & DC Compute)

About the role The Solution Architect – Rack Integration & DC Compute, AI Data Center is a customer-facing technical role responsible for architecting and operationalizing rack-level compute infrastructure for large-scale AI data center deployments. The role connects server, GPU, storage, networking, power, cooling, rack design, factory integration, and onsite deployment requirements into a complete, executable solution. The ideal candidate combines deep compute and data center infrastructure expertise with hands-on knowledge of rack integration and manufacturing processes. The role works closely with customers, Solution Specialists, OEMs, engineering, Professional Services, integration centers, supply chain, project management, and field delivery teams. Annual compensation : $170K - $200K + bonus    What you'll be doing Lead technical discovery and solution architecture for AI compute and rack integration opportunities. Translate customer GPU, server, storage, network, power, cooling, and deployment requirements into standardized rack-level designs. Develop and validate rack architectures, rack elevations, BOMs, component placement, power requirements, network connectivity, and integration specifications. Architect solutions for GPU and accelerated compute platforms, high-density AI racks, traditional compute platforms, storage, and supporting infrastructure. Define rack integration workflows including receiving, kitting, assembly, installation, cabling, configuration, firmware, burn-in, testing, QA/QC, packaging, and shipment. Partner with compute, networking, storage, power, cooling, rack, and integration OEMs to validate compatibility and technical requirements. Support high-density and liquid-cooled rack designs, including CDU interfaces, manifolds, power distribution, weight, space, and facility dependencies. Develop repeatable rack build standards and golden configurations that can be scaled across large AI Data Center programs. Support RFQs/RFPs, proposals, statements of work, technical presentations, customer workshops, and design reviews. Work with integration centers and field delivery teams to ensure designs are manufacturable, deployable, testable, and supportable at scale. Define acceptance criteria, validation plans, documentation standards, and design-to-delivery handoff requirements. Identify opportunities to automate BOM creation, rack design, configuration, validation, testing, and deployment documentation. What you have 7+ years of experience in data center compute, converged infrastructure, systems engineering, solution architecture, rack integration, or related infrastructure roles. Strong background in one or more AI Data Center areas including GPU/accelerated compute, server platforms, converged or hyperconverged infrastructure, rack integration, high-density compute, AI/HPC infrastructure, storage, or data center networking.
