Senior Structural & Integration Engineer (Modular Systems)
Imagine a future where everyone has instant, low-cost access to intelligence. We’re building a fully featured European AI cloud - with everything one needs to train, experiment with, and deploy AI models. In addition, our GPUs run on 100% renewable energy.
We’re ambitious, curious, and gutsy doers. We practice a low hierarchy across the company and high morale in our teams. We’ve already achieved a lot, yet we’re only getting started. Now it’s your chance to join the ride. We offer more than just the job - we offer a career-defining opportunity to be part of building something big!
Join Verda while it’s still being built - not once it’s finished.
Why Verda
Cash + equity compensation along with various fringe benefits (e.g., healthcare, lunch, wellbeing, etc.).
Profitable operations with rapid, sustained growth.
31 nationalities, with 6 different ones on the management team.
An opportunity with make a clear impact and work alongside world-class engineers, researchers, and partners across the global AI ecosystem.
The Mission
Turn a shipping container into a precision-engineered machine room. You will solve the "weight-to-footprint" challenge of 100kW+ racks which often exceed standard floor limits.
Key Responsibilities
Design Reinforced Steel Sub-structures for point loads exceeding 2,000kg per rack.
Manage the Spatial "Tetris" of power busbars, 4-inch coolant pipes, and high-density networking in a mobile form factor.
Design for Transportability, ensuring the container can be shipped fully integrated without damaging internal fluid or power connections.
Ideal Background
3+ years in Data Center Design, structural engineers with experience in prefabricated modular buildings, offshore rigs, or specialized shipping containers.
General Skills & Personal Characteristics
To succeed in this team, candidates must look beyond their CAD screens and embrace a high-ownership, peer-to-peer collaboration style:
Adaptive Problem Solvers: You don’t wait for a manual. When a 100kW rack presents a new thermal challenge, you iterate quickly and find a path forward.
Radical Transparency: You communicate complex technical risks clearly and early. You value "getting it right" over "being right."
Holistic Thinkers: Even if you are the Electrical Lead, you understand how a pipe leak affects a busbar. You design with the entire system in mind.
Practical Visionaries: You have the "Grand Design" in your head but keep your feet on the ground—focusing on buildability, serviceability, and cost-efficiency.
The "Helper Peer" Mentality: You treat your teammates as collaborators, not silos. You are willing to jump into a different discipline to help the team meet a deadline.
Outcome-Oriented: You aren't just "doing engineering"; you are building the foundation for the future of AI. You take pride in seeing your container go from a drawing to a humming 1MW reality.
What's next
We're building fast and this role needs the right person behind it. There's no artificial deadline, but when we find who we're looking for, we move. If this sounds like your next move, apply now.
