Who are we?: At Vertiv, we’re on a mission to empower the people that will power the future. From a simple swipe to life-changing medicines, from push notifications to generative AI. We design, manufacture, and service the products and solutions that keep the world connected. With $6.9 billion in sales, a strong customer base and global reach spanning nearly 70 countries, we are uniquely positioned to deliver greater value to our customers and create new opportunities for our people.
Role purpose: The Pre-Sales Engineer designs integrated power solutions during the proposal phase (power skids, power rooms, modular data centres and cable landing stations) where the opportunity needs more than product selection. The role works at system level: single-line diagrams, design definition and the electrical engineering behind them.
Role scope: System-level design in the proposal phase across mechanical, electrical, control and EPMS disciplines, for opportunities that require an engineered rather than a configured solution.
Key accountabilities:
• Act as system blueprint integrator:
translate a validated product mix into precise single-line diagrams and site-specific physical layouts within the customer's actual building footprint.
• Carry out the electrical engineering behind the design: load and short-circuit current calculations, network calculations and withstand rating, supported by the Pre-Sales Electrical Engineer for detailed studies.
• Integrate the mechanical, electrical, control and EPMS (Electrical Power Monitoring System) disciplines into one coherent solution, coordinating the Pre-Sales Electrical Engineer and the Senior CAD Engineer on assigned opportunities.
• Interpret customer requirements, specifications and tender documentation, and translate them into a buildable design.
• Coordinate technically with customers, consultants and suppliers during the proposal phase.
• Work with design engineering and the factories to validate feasibility, cost and
