The posting

Overview

Microsoft’s continued investment in AI and high-performance computing is driving new requirements for datacenter electrical infrastructure, particularly in how power systems are monitored, integrated, and controlled. AI workloads introduce unique and rapidly evolving power characteristics that require new approaches to electrical telemetry and controls.

The Senior Controls Systems Design Engineer will help develop and deliver power monitoring, telemetry, and controls solutions that support Microsoft’s next generation of AI datacenters. This role provides an opportunity to work at the intersection of AI infrastructure, electrical power systems, industrial controls, and data acquisition, translating emerging requirements into reliable and scalable engineering solutions.

The engineer will work with multidisciplinary teams to evaluate new requirements, develop technical solutions, validate new technologies, support deployment, and help transition emerging capabilities into standardized solutions that can be used across Microsoft’s global datacenter portfolio.

In addition to the AI infrastructure focus, the role will apply strong Electrical Power Monitoring System (EPMS) and industrial controls expertise to the design, integration, testing, and commissioning of datacenter monitoring and controls systems.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
