League Solution Architect - Power & Energy Systems

Job Title: League Solution Architect - Power & Energy Systems

Secure Power - Data Center Systems is seeking a highly experienced technical professional to assume the role of League Solution Architect - Power & Energy Systems on a worldwide basis.

The League Solution Architect is a League-level technical authority responsible for optimizing and positioning end-to-end power system solutions, combining 3-phase UPS and Energy Storage technologies, to maximize solution competitiveness and customer value.

This role complements the Product Owner by focusing on solution architecture, system trade-offs, and customer-facing technical leadership, while Product Owners retain accountability for product strategy, backlog, delivery, and business performance.

Responsibilities:

Solution Architecture & Competitiveness

• Build and optimize end-to-end power system solutions combining 3-phase UPS and Energy Storage technologies (e.g. Li-ion, Ni-Zn, and future chemistries)
• Perform solution-level comparisons, covering:
  
  • Cost structure, pricing logic, and total cost of ownership (TCO)
  • Efficiency, footprint, scalability, and lifecycle performance
  • Sustainability and environmental impact
  • Risk, qualification status, and roadmap alignment
• Define and recommend best-fit solution architectures based on customer use cases, constraints, and workloads (including AI-driven profiles)

Customer & Key Account Technical Support

• Act as the League-level technical reference for complex customer inquiries related to:
  
  • UPS + Energy Storage compatibility
  • System behavior under advanced workloads (e.g. AI load smoothing, transient response, cycling behavior, SOC management)
• Support key account bids and qualifications by:
  
  • Performing solution-level specification compliance checks
  • Identifying gaps, risks, and mitigation plans
  • Supporting bidding teams with technically robust and differentiated solution positioning
• Participate in strategic customer engagements requiring deep system-level credibility

Technical Communication & Enablement

• Own League-level technical communication, including:
  
  • Solution white papers, technical notes, and reference architectures
  • Internal guidance on system positioning, applicability, and limitations
• Ensure technical consistency and clarity across customer-facing and internal materials

R&D Alignment & Technical Governance

• Serve as the technical interface between the League and R&D organizations
• Align and challenge R&D deliverables from a solution- and customer-outcome perspective, across UPS and Energy Storage roadmaps
• Identify system-level risks, dependencies, and misalignments early to reduce late-stage escalations

Decision Support & Portfolio Enablement

• Provide fact-based technical input to:
  
  • Solution and portfolio strategy discussions
  • Bid / no-bid decisions
  • Qualification, validation, and investment priorities across Energy Storage technologies
• Enable faster, higher-quality decisions by resolving solution-level technical questions at League level

Location:

• Kolding, Demark /Shanghai, China/Bangalore, India

Qualifications

Minimum Skills and Qualifications:

Education: Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, Power Electronics, or a related field.

Experience:

• 10+ years of experience in R&D, Systems Engineering, or Technical Consulting within the Data Center or Critical Power industry.
• Deep Subject Matter Expertise in 3-Phase UPS systems and battery technologies is mandatory.

Key Competencies:

• Commercial Mindset: A strong desire to pivot from "how it works" (R&D) to "how it creates value" (Offer Management).
• Customer Facing: Experience presenting to senior customer stakeholders and handling difficult technical objections.
• Influence: Ability to challenge R&D peers constructively and influence roadmap decisions without direct authority.
• Strategic Thinking: Ability to see the "Big Picture" of the data center ecosystem (cooling, power, IT load) rather than just the UPS box.

Languages: Strong verbal and written English communication skills.

Reporting & Interfaces

• Reports to: Offer Management League Leader
• Key Interfaces: Product Owners, R&D, Sales Engineering, Key Accounts, etc.
