About Submer
Submer designs and delivers end-to-end AI datacenter infrastructure built around industry-leading liquid cooling.
We help organizations scale AI beyond the limits of traditional datacenters by enabling higher density, greater efficiency and lower environmental impact – accelerating time-to-AI from first deployment to full production.
What impact you'll have
The Lead Data Center Delivery Engineer is a hands-on technical leadership role at the center of Submer's modular data center deployments. You will personally own the technical execution of deployments in the field, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) integration, on-site installation and commissioning, and the hands-on troubleshooting that gets systems live and stable, while leading two project teams across two geographies.
You will lead a full execution team based in India that drives development and build-out of the modular systems, and a customer-facing engineering team based in the United States that handles on-site adjustments, modifications, and customer-specific requirements. Your job is to connect the two: making sure what is developed in India translates cleanly into field-ready systems the US team can adapt and deploy.
This is deliberately not a director or VP seat in name only. We are hiring a builder who has done the work on the product themselves, deployed data centers with their own hands, and still wants to be on site with the equipment while leading the teams that build and adapt it.
What you'll do
- Lead two project teams
- Lead the India-based full execution team that drives development and build-out of Submer's modular data center systems.
- Lead the US-based, customer-facing engineering team that handles on-site adjustments, modifications, and customer-specific requirements.
- Own the handoffs and a clear working rhythm between the two teams so development in India feeds directly into field execution in the US.
- Set the technical standard across both teams, resolve conflicts, and keep development and field work aligned to the same specifications.
