Senior Technical Leader Data Center - F/M

At Schneider Electric, we are committed to solving real-world problems to create a sustainable, digitalised and new electrical future.

Our data centers support the world's leading cloud, hyperscale and colocation players through their digital and energy transformation.

You will join the OneSol Europe Team in charge of all Solution Business activities (Tendering & Execution), with a strong focus on Data Center projects.

You will be part of the Cloud & Service Providers (C&SP) organization, supporting Strategic Data Center Accounts across Europe (UK & Ireland, France, Netherlands, BeNe, Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.).

Your Role:

Reporting to the Head of Tendering, in a hybrid position based in France, the UK or Spain, you will act as the technical authority for complex Data Center and Multi-System Integration opportunities.

Your role starts once the customer publishes its specification (RFQ): you build the bridge between the spec and the factories, check that the technical response meets the spec, and manage any deviations (highlighting, negotiating) through to first order.

As the cycle between first prescription and first order is often very short (6 months to 1 year), you will drive end-to-end technical coordination with a high level of autonomy and no direct line management.

You have a strong command of the full data center architecture: cooling (from chiller to CDU), UPS, medium and low voltage electrical distribution, transformers, and power train.

Your Missions:


* Capture, analyze, and translate customer requirements into integrated and scalable technical solutions that deliver measurable customer value,


* Define and lead the overall solution architecture across electrical, mechanical, cooling, digital, software, and third-party systems, ensuring performance, reliability, and compatibility,


* Design and prescribe the standard architectures for the key regional accounts,


* Develop differentiated and competitive technical strategies that support business growth and increase the likelihood of success on complex opportunities,


* Lead technical solution development activities, including system integration, design optimization, equipment selection, and engineering scope definition,


* Ensure compliance with customer specifications, Schneider Electric standards, industry regulations, and technical governance requirements,


* Identify, assess, and mitigate technical risks, assumptions, constraints, and interface challenges throughout the opportunity lifecycle,


* Support customer workshops, technical presentations, proof-of-concepts, and solution validation activities, building customer confidence and trust,


* Define engineering effort, resource requirements, and execution assumptions to ensure successful delivery following project award,


* Provide technical leadership and guidance to tendering, engineering, sales, and execution teams while contributing to innovation, knowledge sharing, and continu...
