Electrical Engineer (Low Voltage)

Boom Supersonic is building Superpower — a 42-megawatt industrial gas turbine derived from supersonic propulsion technology, purpose-built for frontier AI data centers where power demand is scaling faster than the grid can keep up. We're doing it in Denver, at a pace and cost point the industry says is impossible. Because we think the industry has forgotten what's possible. Low voltage on Superpower is not a single domain. It spans 480VAC skid-level power distribution, machine control and actuation, instrumentation, and electronics down to 12–28VDC — and none of it has been designed yet. There is no inherited architecture to reverse-engineer, no incumbent system to maintain. You will reason from first principles, challenge assumptions early, and make design decisions that shape the platform for years. When something doesn't work at first energization, you will be the one on-site — tracing signals, reading schematics, finding the answer, and coming back the next day with a fix. This is the kind of role where the breadth of what you own is genuinely rare. We are looking for an engineer who is energized by that, not just comfortable with it. What You'll Do Define the LV architecture, single-line diagrams, interface requirements, and concept of operations during preliminary design. Produce wiring diagrams, schematics, cable schedules, load lists, I/O lists, and supporting analyses through detailed design. Own first-article build, electrical checkout, troubleshooting, first energization, and commissioning during test. What You'll Own The electrical design of every support system on the turbine: LV power distribution, conversion, control, and protection across 480VAC skid distribution, machine control and actuation, instrumentation, and 12–28VDC electronics Cable, harness, junction-box, connector, and control-panel architecture for skid-mounted industrial equipment Grounding, bonding, shielding, and EMI/EMC design practices across power, control, and instrumentation wiring Electrical interfaces with the turbine control system, including I/O definition, signal types, device power, permissives, and fault feedback Motor control systems, including VFDs, soft starters, contactors, overload protection, and control relays Fuel system electrical integration, including valves, actuators, heaters, instrumentation, and gas-conditioning equipment Lube oil system electrical integration, including pumps, heaters, coolers, level, temperature, and pressure instrumentation, and local controls Starting system electrical architecture, including starter motor interfaces, auxiliaries, permissives, and control circuits SCR and emissions system electrical integration, including injection systems, heaters, controls, instrumentation, and safety interlocks Load bank auxiliary systems, including fan power, controls, step-switching interfaces, feedback, and interlocks Cooling system electrical integration, including radiator fans, cooling tower interfaces, pumps, VFDs, instrumentation, and controls Enclosure and balance-of-plant electrical systems, including HVAC, lighting, fire detection, suppression interfaces, access control, and safety interlocks You probably have: Experience designing and commissioning LV electrical systems for industrial equipment — turbines, compressors, generators, or similar rotating machinery. Hands-on fluency with motor control, instrumentation wiring, and control panel design in 480VAC and 12–28VDC environments. The ability to produce clean, buildable drawings: schematics, wiring diagrams, cable schedules, and I/O lists that a technician can follow without a phone call. Comfort working across mechanical, controls, and instrumentation teams — and translating between them when needed. You will thrive here if: You find first-energization day more exciting than intimidating. You have strong instincts about how systems should be laid out, and you'd rather voice a concern early than quietly inherit someone else's mistake. You are equally
