Architect and build tactical AI/HPC data centers optimized for high-performance computing at the tactical edge.

Обязанности

Expeditionary Systems (AES) is building AI Factories and Command/Control centers—specialized, high-performance computing centers designed to process petabyte-scale data and convert it into decisions at machine speed from forward operating bases. These are not traditional data centers. They are air-transportable, power-constrained, hardened systems optimized for AI inference at the tactical edge and deeply integrated with Lattice. We are seeking a High Performance Compute Systems Architect to design and build these tactical AI/HPC data centers from the ground up. This is a new and highest priority role. You will architect the complete electrical infrastructure—compute node selection, power distribution, thermal management, battery backup system, and physical hardening—that enables A
Own the end-to-end architecture of AI Factory tactical data centers from compute hardware through power architecture, networking, and thermal cooling systems
Design GPU-accelerated compute clusters optimized for AI inference and training workloads at the tactical edge (NVIDIA H100/A100, AMD MI300, or similar)
Engineer advanced thermal solutions for high-density compute without traditional data center infrastructure (liquid cooling, immersion cooling, hybrid systems)
Design air-transportable, modular systems (containerized, palletized, vehicle-mounted) that are rapidly deployable and operationally credible
Build infrastructure optimized for austere and contested environments—extreme temperatures, limited grid power, SCIF-accreditable, electromagnetic hardening
Work in tight coupling with Lattice and AI/ML teams to ensure physical infrastructure meets mission-critical software requirements
Partner with defense customers to translate operational requirements and needs into technical architectures
Lead prototyping, field testing, and operational validation through military exercises and real-world deployments
Drive systems from concept through production at scale, working across hardware, software, supply chain, and program teams
Define standards and best practices for tactical AI compute infrastructure across AES product lines

Требования

Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related technical field
5+ years of experience designing and deploying data center infrastructure, HPC clusters, large-scale compute systems, or tensor / accelerator compute nodes.
8+ years of engineering experience designing and deploying electrical products
Deep expertise in GPU-accelerated computing architecture for AI/ML workloads (NVIDIA, AMD, or similar platforms)
Strong understanding of power distribution systems for high-density compute including PDUs, power shelves, UPS systems, generators, chillers, power distribution, and energy management
Experience with thermal management for high-power-density systems—liquid cooling and chiller systems.
Proven track record building and deploying production infrastructure from concept through operational scale
Systems thinking ability to optimize across competing constraints (performance, power, thermal, weight, cost, reliability)
U.S. Person status required (U.S. citizen, permanent resident, refugee, or asylee)
Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance (U.S. citizenship may be required)
Must be able to travel up to 15% of the time
