Data Center Electrical Engineer

Overview

Lead the electrical design for Anthropic’s data center facilities across a rapidly expanding US portfolio, from utility service entrance through to rack-level power delivery.

What you'll do

• Own electrical facility architecture and end-to-end electrical design across the US portfolio.
• Develop and maintain electrical basis of design, reference architectures, and specifications.
• Run and validate engineering studies (e.g., short-circuit, arc flash, load flow, power quality) to guide design and equipment selection.
• Review and approve electrical design packages and engineering submittals from build partners.
• Drive modular/prefabricated electrical strategies (modular skids, e-houses, prefabricated power assemblies) and standardize designs across sites.
• Support construction through commissioning: coordinate implementation, test/validate electrical systems, and resolve field issues.
• Coordinate with utilities, ISOs/RTOs, agencies, vendors, and contractors to meet regulatory and interconnection requirements.

What you'll need

• 10+ years of electrical engineering experience in mission-critical facilities across the project lifecycle.
• Deep familiarity with US electrical codes/standards including NFPA 70/NEC.
• Hands-on experience designing for prefabricated and modular data center electrical infrastructure.
• A bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• Hands-on experience producing/reviewing electrical construction documents and single-line diagrams.
• Fluency in power systems analysis and experience using tools such as SKM, ETAP, or EasyPower.
• Understand critical power topologies (e.g., 2N, N+1, distributed redundant, block redundant).

Details

• Location: Remote-Friendly, United States.
• Work schedule expectation: in one of the company offices at least 25% of the time (hybrid policy).
• Visa sponsorship: available for some roles/candidates (sponsorship not guaranteed for every role).
