About the Role

The Systems Integration Manager (SIM) is the single threaded owner of engineering delivery and system integration for complex industrial and data center infrastructure systems. This role ensures thermal, electrical, fluid, and control systems are integrated into a fully functional, reliable system and that engineering teams execute with alignment, clarity, and accountability. The SIM establishes visibility into scope maturity, engineering execution, and organizational risks, ensuring data-driven decisions and predictable delivery.

Responsibilities

  • Own intake and prioritization of new initiatives, serving as the primary entry point for all incoming opportunities.
  • Assess and validate each opportunity for technical feasibility, scope clarity, resource requirements, and alignment to organizational priorities.
  • Identify risks, dependencies, and gaps early, ensuring incomplete or ambiguous work is resolved prior to formal program launch.
  • Partner closely with cross-functional teams to shape programs before execution, refining scope, defining success criteria, and establishing clear ownership and expectations.
  • Drive structured decision-making for go/no-go recommendations, providing clear, data-driven insights and tradeoffs to leadership.
  • Ensure only well-defined, executable work enters the engineering pipeline, improving predictability, reducing rework, and protecting team capacity.
  • Drive closure of critical actions, resolve ownership gaps, escalate risks appropriately, and enforce accountability across engineering and cross-functional stakeholders.
  • End-to-end engineering execution across thermal, electrical, fluid, and control systems from design through deployment.
  • Own system requirements, architecture decomposition, interface management, verification, validation, and requirements flow-down across all subsystems.
  • Ensure system performance, reliability, and integration readiness under real-world operating conditions.
  • Drive cross-functional alignment across Mechanical, Electrical, Controls, Thermal, Manufacturing, and Program teams.
  • Lead system-level design reviews, including P&IDs, one-lines, controls architectures, and subsystem interfaces.
  • Define and drive integration, commissioning, FAT, SAT, and deployment readiness strategies.
  • Ensure build readiness for skids, modular data centers (MDCs), and field installations.
  • Lead system-level failure analysis, corrective actions, engineering change management, and risk mitigation activities.
  • Establish visibility into scope maturity, engineering performance, execution risks, and critical dependencies.
  • Drive program execution cadence, including planning and design reviews.
  • Standardize execution frameworks, operating rhythms, and lessons learned processes to improve organizational scalability and predictability.

Requirements

  • Strong systems engineering capability, including requirements management, interface control, verification, validation, and systems integration.
  • Ability to operate at both system-level engineering depth and organizational execution leadership.
  • Working knowledge of thermal systems, electrical distribution, controls, and fluid system integration.
  • Experience leading full lifecycle delivery from architecture and design through commissioning and field deployment.
  • Ability to influence and drive accountability across technical and cross-functional teams without direct authority.
  • Strong judgment in prioritization, risk management, escalation, and decision-making under ambiguity.
  • Ability to translate complex technical and business tradeoffs into clear executive-level communication.
  • Proven ability to establish scalable execution frameworks, operating rhythms, and organizational discipline.
  • 8 –15+ years delivering complex engineered systems.
  • Experience in thermal, electrical, fluid, or controls systems integration.
  • Strong system-level engineering capability.
  • Proven cross-functional leadership.
  • Experience leading multidisciplinary engineering organizations or systems engineering teams.
  • Experience with data center or critical infrastructure systems.
  • NPI or program recovery experience.
  • Experience with modular systems (MDCs, skids).
  • Commissioning and field deployment experience.
