Solution Architect Data Centre Infrastructure Jobs in Saudi Arabia at Vertiv
Title: Solution Architect Data Centre Infrastructure
Company: Vertiv
Location: Saudi Arabia
Job Description
This role is for data centre designers who don’t just create concepts—but deliver infrastructure that gets built, commissioned, and operated at scale.
As part of the Infrastructure Solutions business unit, our prefabricated division, you will represent the full capability of the organization in front of customers; translating requirements into integrated, world-class data centre solutions.
You will operate at the intersection of engineering, delivery, and client engagement—owning the journey from initial concept through to real-world deployment. This is not a pure design role; it requires individuals who understand what works on paper and what performs in live environments.
Success in this role is built on three core pillars:
- Design Depth — Strong mechanical and electrical design capability across data centre systems, with cross-discipline awareness
- Operational Reality — Experience with constructed, commissioned, and running facilities
- Customer Leadership — Ability to engage clients, translate requirements, and shape solutions that deliver measurable value

- Application of Standards & Architectures

- Ensure solutions align with portfolio positioning, cost models, and delivery constraints
- Identify deviations from standard architectures and escalate when required
- Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Work closely with internal engineering disciplines (electrical, mechanical, controls, services)
- Coordinate inputs from internal specialists and support functions
- Support smooth handover of solutions into execution phases
- Quality & Risk Awareness
- Ensure solutions meet defined technical, compliance, and customer requirements
- Highlight technical risks, assumptions, and dependencies clearly
- Support validation against applicable standards (e.g. Tier intent, redundancy philosophy)
- Continuous Improvement
- Capture lessons learned from executed projects
- Contribute feedback to improve reference designs, tools, and solution guidelines
- Actively develop technical and commercial understanding of Vertiv’s offerings
