Eaton's Global Data Center Segment is focused on helping data centers realize real business benefits today while optimizing their operations for the future. With the rise of big data, edge computing and the cloud, data centers are under pressure to be more high-performing, sustainable and cost-effective than ever, without compromising resilience or security. At the same time, new opportunities and revenue streams require faster speed-to-market. With our digital intelligence, world-class cyber-secure products and services, reliable, compatible solutions and engineering expertise, we help data centers realize real business benefits today while optimizing their operations for the future.

As part of our continued investment in next generation data center technologies, Eaton is expanding its capabilities to support advanced, future ready architectures across both white space (IT halls) and grey space (electrical and mechanical infrastructure).

Within this segment, Eaton has an opening for a Data Center Solutions Architect Engineer – White Space. This position plays a critical role in defining, shaping, and delivering advanced data center architectures where standard reference designs may not yet exist. This role sits at the intersection of innovation, applied engineering, and customer engagement. It will be supporting hyperscale, co-location, and EPC partners from early concept through solution definition.

• Develop conceptual and system level solutions covering white space environments.
• Translate customer operational, resiliency, sustainability, and scalability goals into robust electrical architectures.
• Support technical discussions during pre-sales, design development, and early project phases.

System Architecture & Engineering Expertise

• Define advanced data center electrical architectures, including utility interconnection, MV/LV distribution, UPS topologies, energy storage, and IT power delivery.
• Ensure alignment between white space power requirements and upstream grey space infrastructure.
• Perform detailed technical analyses to evaluate system performance, reliability, efficiency, and maintainability.
• Provide technical recommendations to optimize footprint, power coordination, and system integration.

Cross Functional Collaboration

• Partner closely with Eaton Centers of Excellence (COEs), Global Product Lines (GPLs), and Business Units (BUs) to align customer solutions with Eaton’s technology roadmap.
• Collaborate with Design & Bid, engineering, operations, and sales teams to ensure solutions are technically sound and commercially viable.
• Facilitate technical workshops with customers, consultants, and internal stakeholders to co create solutions.

• Support early Eaton system approvals by vendors (AVL) for programmatic or large-scale deployments.
• Assist field engineers during commissioning and startup activities when needed.

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering from an accredited institution.
• Minimum 3 years of work experience with data center electrical systems, covering white space environments.
• Proficiency in English; additional languages (e.g., Arabic) are a plus.
• Strong understanding of power system architectures, redundancy concepts, and integration between electrical and mechanical systems.
• Experience with UPS systems, MV/LV distribution, energy storage, and critical power infrastructure.
• Ability to lead technical discussions and conceptual design workshops with customers.
• Familiarity with BIM, digital engineering workflows, and modern data center design tools is an advantage.
• Strong analytical, problem solving, and communication skills.
• Customer focused mindset with the ability to act as a trusted technical advisor.
