Together, our team combines fresh perspectives with deep industry experience to solve real-world problems for our customers. We move fast and think practically. If you're ready to make an impact in an industry that matters, we're looking for people like you.

What youll do

Giga is launching a new product category at the intersection of modular design and advanced data center infrastructure. As the Head of Data Center Engineering , you will spearhead the design and development of our next-generation hydro-cooled, direct-to-chip modular data centers engineered in the U.S., manufactured overseas, and installed domestically like scalable building blocks.

Youll lead the full engineering roadmap, integrating electrical distribution, racking, cooling, redundancy, and networking into a complete, shippable solution. Beyond shaping the technical vision, youll build and lead a U.S.-based engineering team while collaborating closely with our product and manufacturing team in Shanghai and engineering partners in India. This is a high-impact role at the forefront of AI-ready data center design.

Where youll work

This role will be based in our San Francisco or Houston offices. You must be willing to work in the office full-time, outside of our bi-weekly WFH Fridays. International travel to China and India will also be required to support design and production.

  • Ensure designs are optimized for overseas manufacturing and scalable deployment in the U.S.
  • Collaborate with Shanghai-based product/manufacturing teams and Indian engineering resources to bring designs from concept to production.
  • Travel internationally to oversee production, resolve design issues, and align global teams.
  • Drive innovation in hydro-cooled, AI-ready data center design.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of experience in data center engineering and design.
  • Expertise in modular or large-scale infrastructure systems (cooling, power, networking, redundancy).
  • Proven track record of building and leading high-performing engineering teams.
  • Experience collaborating with international manufacturing and engineering partners.
  • Strong project leadership with ability to execute complex, multi-discipline designs.
  • Willingness to travel internationally (particularly to China and India).

Bonus points

  • Experience with hydro-cooled, direct-to-chip data center solutions.
  • Background in modular design or prefabricated systems.
  • Prior leadership in fast-growth hardware or infrastructure companies.

Benefits

  • Subsidized health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Equity (options) in a rapidly growing startup
  • 401(k) with 4% employer match
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Parental leave
  • Healthcare and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA)
  • Commuter benefits
  • Monthly team onsites where all offices come inperson to collaborate
