About AESC US LLC

AESC is a global leader in the development and manufacturing of high-performance batteries for zero-emission electric vehicles and energy storage systems. Founded in Japan in 2007 and headquartered in Yokohama, AESC has been building manufacturing capabilities around the world in the U.S., U.K., Europe, Japan and China to serve key markets and leading customers locally for over 14 years.

Today, AESC has become the partner of choice for the world’s leading OEMs and energy storage providers in North America, Europe, and Asia. Its advanced technology powers over one million electric vehicles and provides more than 15GWh of installed capacity for battery energy systems in over 60 countries.

About the Role

AESC is seeking an AIDC Solutions Engineer to lead the technical development of battery energy storage solutions for AI data centers and other mission-critical facilities. This role connects customer requirements with battery system design, power conversion, controls, and site electrical infrastructure to deliver reliable, commercially competitive solutions.

The engineer will serve as a technical point of contact for data center owners, hyperscalers, developers, EPCs, and technology partners, supporting opportunities from early concept and proposal development through engineering handoff, integration testing, and commissioning support.

What You Will Do

• + Lead technical discussions with customers to define operating requirements, electrical interfaces, performance expectations, and project scope.

+ Develop BESS solutions for applications including backup power, ride-through, load smoothing, peak demand management, and grid support.

+ Analyze data center load profiles, including rapid AI workload fluctuations, to establish power, energy, response time, state-of-charge, redundancy, and lifecycle requirements.

+ Develop system configurations, preliminary sizing, single-line diagrams, equipment layouts, technical proposals, and compliance matrices.

+ Evaluate integration with UPS systems, generators, switchgear, transformers, PCS, EMS, and facility control systems.

+ Define control strategies and operating sequences for normal operation, grid disturbances, backup operation, and recovery.

+ Coordinate with battery, PCS, controls, and R&D teams to assess technical feasibility and address product gaps.

+ Lead technical responses to RFIs, RFPs, and RFQs, including performance assumptions, scope boundaries, exceptions, and interface responsibilities.

+ Support system modeling and studies covering dynamic response, power quality, protection coordination, and grid interaction.

+ Translate customer reliability and availability requirements into system architecture, redundancy strategies, maintenance assumptions, and validation plans.

+ Coordinate integration testing, factory acceptance testing, and site acceptance testing with internal teams and external partners.

+ Support customer reviews of safety, reliability, DFMEA, and applicable certification requirements.

+ Maintain clear technical documentation and provide structured handoffs to project engineering, project management, and service teams.

+ Provide customer and market feedback to guide the AIDC product roadmap. #LI-IC1
