Technical Staff, Data Center Architect
Application completed on Dell Technologies
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.
