* Establish, communicate, and support updates and changes to the "standards playbook" for all relevant stakeholders, ensuring clarity, alignment, and timely awareness across engineering, product management, and business unit teams
* Help clarify and adapt existing Vertiv guidelines for thermal management to ensure system-relevant application and easy implementation in new product developments ensuring compliance with ASHRAE, ISO, and energy codes
* Collaborate with the team to ensure new product designs align with system-level thermal standards and architectural guidelines, and provide feedback from practical design and integration work to drive continuous improvement of thermal standards such as optimizing airflow management
* Collaborate with mechanical and standards engineering teams to ensure new product designs align with system-level thermal requirements and architectural guidelines
* Stay current with emerging technologies and best practices in thermal management, including liquid cooling, airflow management, and new materials
Requirements:
