AI Factory Customer Engineer

Core Technical Customer Engagement 

• Act as the primary technical interface between customers and Armada's Product and Engineering teams, translating real-world requirements into actionable technical inputs.
• Provide expert technical guidance on Armada's AI Factory products, including Modular Data Centers (MDCs), liquid-cooled data center designs, and GPU-based systems from partners such as NVIDIA.
• Understand customer workloads deeply both current and future and advise on rack-level design, system architecture, and deployment tradeoffs.
• Lead technical demonstrations, proof-of-concepts, and workshops, tailoring content to customer constraints and operational realities.
• Cultivate trusted-advisor relationships with customer engineering, infrastructure, IT, OT, and security stakeholders.
• Enable field and sales teams by simplifying complex technical concepts into clear, customer-relevant narratives.
• Bring a high-ownership, self-starting mindset with the energy and curiosity to fill gaps, solve problems, and drive outcomes end-to-end.

Renewable Energy & Land-and-Power Operator Engagement 

• Engage renewable energy operators, independent power producers, and upstream oil and gas companies (e.g., Chord Energy, Devon Energy, and similar) as a strategic and growing customer segment for Armada's AI Factory — helping them understand how their existing power generation capacity, land assets, and fiber infrastructure make them natural hosts for modular AI compute deployments.
• Articulate the value proposition of Armada's MDC platform to energy sector operators: rapid deployment timelines, self-contained power and cooling architecture, scalable capacity, and the ability to monetize stranded or excess power assets through AI compute hosting.
• Develop familiarity with the operational model of energy companies: power generation economics, land and lease structures, regulatory constraints, and the OT/IT boundary — and translate these into informed AI Factory deployment conversations.
• Navigate both the OT and IT stakeholder landscape within energy companies, building credibility with infrastructure, operations, and executive teams alike.
• Identify and communicate the specific deployment considerations relevant to energy sector environments: remote or off-grid locations, variable power availability, environmental and permitting requirements, and physical security constraints.

AI Datacenter Co-Lo & Neocloud Engagement 

• Engage AI-focused datacenter co-location operators and Neocloud providers as a secondary but relevant customer segment, positioning Armada's AI Factory as a solution for rapid capacity expansion, modular overflow deployments, and high-density liquid-cooled compute environments.
• Develop sufficient familiarity with co-lo and Neocloud operational models — GPU cluster economics, high-density power and cooling requirements, multi-tenant compute, and deployment velocity expectations — to hold credible technical conversations and scope solutions appropriately.
• Collaborate with Sales to identify where AI Factory's modular, rapidly deployable infrastructure is most differentiated against co-lo and Neocloud alternatives, and tailor technical positioning accordingly.

Cross-Functional Collaboration & Field Strategy 

• Collaborate cross-functionally with Sales, Product, and Engineering to support customer engagements, technical scoping, and solution design across all target verticals.
• Stay current on industry trends related to AI infrastructure, energy sector AI adoption, data center design, liquid cooling, and modular systems — and share insights internally to shape future product strategy.
• Bring positive energy, curiosity, and a collaborative mindset to every engagement — this role values technical excellence and having fun while building something meaningful.

Required Qualifications 

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field (or equivalent hands-on engineering experience). Advanced engineering degrees are a plus.
• 5+ years of relevant experience in data center engineering, infrastructure engineering, pre-sales, sales engineering, or solution architecture roles.
• Years of experience are less important than depth and relevance to data center and infrastructure topics.
• Strong understanding of compute, networking, and storage fundamentals, including AI and GPU-based systems (e.g., NVIDIA DGX, HGX, MGX, or similar).
• Hands-on experience with data center systems, including:
• Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems
• Cooling architectures, with direct experience or strong familiarity with liquid-cooled data centers and/or modular data centers (MDCs)
• Racking and rack-level design considerations
• Engineering mindset with curiosity about what lives inside the rack, including openness to evolving beyond current reference designs (e.g., B300 / GB300) as architectures evolve.
• Familiarity with cloud platforms, containerization, virtualization, and modern enterprise infrastructure.
• Ability to navigate and build credibility with both OT and IT stakeholders — particularly relevant when engaging energy, industrial, and infrastructure-heavy customers.
• Strong troubleshooting skills and comfort operating in complex, live customer environments.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to engage both highly technical engineers and non-technical stakeholders.
• Willingness to travel as required.

Demonstrable Expertise — Technical Focus Areas 

Primary Focus: Modular & Liquid-Cooled Data Center Architecture

Secondary Exposure (Nice to Have): Energy Sector & Industrial Infrastructure 

• Familiarity with power generation, distribution, and energy economics — particularly relevant to operators considering AI compute hosting on owned or leased power assets.
• Understanding of remote or off-grid infrastructure deployment: power availability constraints, site connectivity, environmental permitting, and physical security considerations.
• Awareness of the OT/IT landscape in energy and industrial environments, including SCADA systems, operational reliability requirements, and safety-driven design constraints.
• Background in or exposure to oil and gas, upstream energy, independent power production, or renewable energy operations.
