• Own UI/UX from concept to production-ready code across the core product • Build and maintain a frontend design system in React + TypeScript + TailwindCSS • Translate complex security workflows into interfaces that feel intuitive to practitioners • Collaborate directly with backend engineers and security researchers to ship features fast • Define interaction patterns for human-in-the-loop AI experiences • Contribute to design reviews, component architecture, and frontend standards

• Collaborate closely with product designers in designing new features • Bring Figma designs to life by implementing modular, reusable React components • Implement interactions using highly flexible and performant CSS code • Experiment with animations and micro-interactions that are best prototyped through code • Work closely with the front end engineering team to bridge front end logic with design

• Lead the end-to-end integration and testing of rack electrical solutions, including high/low voltage systems (AC/DC), uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), and power distribution units (PDUs) in varying form factors and product lines. • Participate in customer engagements and site visits to understand and document deployment constraints and gather feedback for design improvements. • Build accurate rack power budgets and model electrical capacity for both current and future high‑density server or switch configurations. • Manage relationships with electrical/power component vendors to build out a robust partner ecosystem consisting of PSUs, PDUs, bus bars, power shelves, and high voltage equipment. • Ensure all rack designs meet safety and certification requirements such as NEC/NFPA, IEEE, and UL/IEC. • Design, review, or integrate rack PDUs and power‑distribution components, including breaker configurations, metering, and load‑balancing features. • Perform detailed failure‑mode analysis, including FMEA and root‑cause investigations for electrical defects or field issues. • Define, validate, and improve factory electrical test strategies, including continuity testing, sequencing, load testing, and safety verification. • Be highly proficient in developing, updating, and interpreting electrical one‑line diagrams for rack‑level and row‑level power architectures, ensuring accurate representation of power flow, grounding, redundancy, and protection devices. • Collaborate with Architects/Compliance/Reliability and global vendors to align electrical architectures with total system design and international data center/power standards (e.g., OCP, ASHRAE, ANSI, TIA-942). • Develop and maintain design documentation including BOMs, specifications, test plans, and engineering change orders (ECOs). • Conduct root cause analysis and corrective actions for electrical failures or field issues. • May perform other duties and responsibilities as assigned.
