About This Role

Infrastructure Solutions Group (ISG) builds the products that power

infrastructure, solutions, and data management our customers need most. Our

teams design and develop the hardware and software that connect infrastructure,

accelerate computational workloads, integrate across the stack, protect data

continuity, and deliver the platforms, applications, and diagnostics our

customers rely on every day at enterprise scale. 

Some product builders follow the rules. Ours rewrite them.

Within ISG, innovation isn't just about creating new technology- it's about

challenging assumptions and reimagining how work gets done. Engineers define

intent, author precise specifications, and orchestrate AI agents that execute at

speed and scale. AI is embedded throughout our development process, helping us

move faster, learn quicker, and deliver greater impact. Yet the most important

contribution remains uniquely human: deciding what to build, designing how it

should work, and applying the judgment needed to earn our customers' trust. When

your products power critical infrastructure around the world, that

responsibility matters.

We move quickly toward the work that matters most. We reward experimentation,

encourage bold thinking, and remove unnecessary barriers so great ideas can

become reality faster. Our teams embrace a customer-first, first-to-market

mindset, transforming rapid feedback into better products and better outcomes.

We aren't looking for people who are content with the status quo- we look for

builders who question it, improve it, and occasionally rewrite it.

If you're energized by solving complex systems challenges, excited to work

alongside AI to amplify your impact, and motivated by the opportunity to shape

what's next instead of simply maintaining what's been done before, you'll find

your place here.

Join us and help build the future of enterprise technology. 

Mechanical Engineers (Multiple Open Roles, Principal and Senior Principal

levels)

Mechanical Engineering leads and delivers the development of innovative and

compliant mechanical design solutions. Our team conducts the analysis,

feasibility studies and testing of mechanical products,

instruments, subassemblies and packaging for new and existing products – and

then oversees the introduction of design changes to the manufacturing

organizations. 

 

What you’ll achieve: 

As a Mechanical Engineer, you will own complex mechanical designs, conduct

detailed analyses, and prepare test plans to validate function, reliability, and

compliance. You will coordinate with manufacturing and resolve build issues. 

 

Join us to do the best work of your career and make a profound social impact

as a Mechanical Engineer on our Mechanical Engineering team in Austin, Texas or

Hopkinton, Massachusetts (relocation assistance available). This posting

represents multiple roles at various levels (Principal and Senior Principal).

RESPONSIBILITIES

You will:

* Partner with cross-functional engineering teams to develop innovative,

customer-centric data center infrastructure and high-density rack solutions

* Design and develop mechanical and thermal components for air- and

liquid-cooled systems, leveraging 3D Computer-Aided Design (CAD) tools to

create sheet metal, plastic, die-cast, and complex assemblies

* Develop, prototype, and evaluate new concepts for feasibility, performance,

reliability, and manufacturability, utilizing engineering analysis tools such

as Finite Element Analysis (FEA) where appropriate

* Interpret technical specifications and supplier documentation to support

design decisions and optimize thermal, mechanical, and system-level

performance

* Collaborate with suppliers, manufacturing, quality, and tooling teams to

drive designs from concept through production while improving scalability,

serviceability, and cost efficiency

QUALIFICATIONS

Take the first step towards your dream career 

Every Dell Technologies team member brings something unique to the

table. Here’s what we are looking for with this role: 

 

Essential Requirements

* Proven expertise in electro-mechanical product development for complex

hardware systems

* Demonstrated success designing high-density IT rack solutions for data center

environments

* Strong knowledge of rack-level thermal architectures, including air and

liquid cooling technologies

* Advanced proficiency with 3D CAD tools (Creo, SolidWorks, or equivalent) for

sheet metal, plastic, and die-cast component design

* Ability to interpret technical specifications and data sheets, with practical

application of FEA tools in design validation and optimization

 

Desirable

* Degree in Mechanical or Thermal Engineering

Compensation

Dell is committed to fair and equitable compensation practices. The base salary

range for this position is $152,000-$242,000 (dependent on level)
