Data Center Electrical Engineer

<div class="content-intro"><h2><strong>About Anthropic</strong></h2> <p>Anthropic’s mission is to create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. We want AI to be safe and beneficial for our users and for society as a whole. Our team is a quickly growing group of committed researchers, engineers, policy experts, and business leaders working together to build beneficial AI systems.</p></div><h1 class="heading"><strong>About the role</strong></h1><p>Training and serving frontier AI models requires compute infrastructure at a scale and density that pushes past what conventional data center designs were built to handle. Anthropic’s Data Center team is responsible for delivering that physical infrastructure — partnering with build partners, equipment manufacturers, and utilities to stand up facilities that can reliably power some of the largest accelerator clusters in the industry.</p><p>As a Data Center Electrical Engineer based in Japan, you’ll lead the electrical design of our facilities across our rapidly expanding Asia Pacific (APAC) portfolio — owning the architecture from the utility service entrance through to the rack. You’ll develop and maintain the reference designs and specifications our build partners work against, review their engineering submittals, and run the analysis needed to make confident decisions on topology, redundancy, and equipment selection. You’ll ensure the electrical architecture keeps pace with rapidly increasing rack densities and the unique load characteristics of large-scale ML training.</p><p>This is a global role with a regional focus. You’ll bring fluency in the data center design conventions, codes, and supply markets of Japan, Korea, and the broader APAC region including Australia, and act as Anthropic’s on-the-ground electrical subject-matter expert with local utilities, agencies having jurisdiction, vendors, and contractors. It is also a highly cross-functional role: you’ll work with our hardware and compute teams to tra
