Principal Offsite and Modular Engineer

Oracle Oracle · Enterprise · United States

This Principal Offsite and Modular Engineer role at Oracle focuses on developing scalable offsite-manufactured and prefabricated infrastructure platforms to support OCI's cloud and AI capacity demands. The role involves defining modular infrastructure strategy, leading technical decision-making for modular architecture, and partnering with manufacturing and construction teams to improve deployment speed, quality, and efficiency. The position requires extensive experience in data centers, mission-critical facilities, or industrial infrastructure, with a preference for experience in hyperscale cloud or AI data center infrastructure.

What you'd actually do

  1. Develop and drive OCI's modular infrastructure strategy for electrical, mechanical, controls, and utility systems.
  2. Establish standardized modular design approaches that improve scalability, repeatability, and deployment speed.
  3. Evaluate opportunities for prefabrication and offsite manufacturing across data center infrastructure systems.
  4. Lead technical decision-making for modular architecture, interfaces, and deployment methodologies.
  5. Define engineering requirements and design standards for modular electrical rooms, e-houses, cooling plants, pump skids, power distribution systems, utility modules, and integrated infrastructure packages.

Skills

Required

  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Construction Engineering, or related technical field.
  • 10+ years of experience in data centers, mission-critical facilities, industrial infrastructure, manufacturing, modular construction, or large-scale capital projects.
  • Experience designing or deploying prefabricated and modular infrastructure systems.
  • Strong understanding of electrical distribution systems, mechanical systems, cooling infrastructure, controls, or utility systems.
  • Experience working with manufacturing partners, fabricators, EPC firms, and commissioning teams.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead complex technical initiatives through influence and expertise.

Nice to have

  • Experience supporting hyperscale cloud or AI data center infrastructure.
  • Knowledge of modular electrical substations, power skids, e-houses, cooling skids, central utility plants, or integrated infrastructure modules.
