Full job description
About Giga
Giga is building gigawatts of AI data centers to hasten a future of intelligence and abundance. We build data centers fast and at scale by combining the capabilities of an equipment supplier, engineering firm, general contractor, and real estate developer under one roof. Our team moves quickly and thinks practically. If you're ready to make an impact in an industry that matters, we're looking for people like you.
Why join Giga
The Pace: We're building at a speed most companies talk about but never actually operate at. If you've been bored somewhere else, you won't be here.
The Impact: Every person at Giga touches the work that matters. No layers, no waiting for approval chains. You'll see your fingerprints on what we ship.
The Team: A team of operators defining the future of AI infrastructure. We recruit A-players from the most innovative companies in the world, and they choose Giga because the work here means more.
The Moment: AI doesn't run without power, and that's us. Giga is the picks and shovels behind the AI revolution. This industry is about to explode, and you'll be in the room where it's already happening.
What you’ll do
Giga Energy builds mission-critical power and cooling infrastructure for AI datacenters — chillers, e-houses, switchgear, and fully integrated AI pods delivered to hyperscaler and utility customers across North America. As Quality Engineer, you will be the hands-on quality owner for our newest and most complex product lines — the AI-specific equipment that's driving Giga's next phase of growth. You'll run incoming, in-process, and final inspection for these components, chase down supplier quality issues, and be the person who catches a defect before it ships. This is a technical, in-the-weeds role: less about building the quality org from scratch and more about being excellent at the day-to-day execution that keeps AI pod quality airtight as volume ramps.
Where you’ll work
We are an in-office culture — velocity matters when you're building physical infrastructure, and the best decisions happen in the room. This role is based in our Long Beach, CA office, with full-time onsite expectations.
Responsibilities
Quality System Execution
Execute quality procedures and work instructions for AI pod components (chillers, e-houses, switchgear) in alignment with the site's ISO 9001 QMS
Support internal and external audits, including ISO certification efforts, for AI product lines
Maintain the product compliance matrix mapping chillers, e-houses, switchgear, and AI pods to applicable UL, NEC, NEMA, and customer-specific requirements
Interface with UL Compliance Officers and third-party agencies during audits for AI equipment
Supplier Quality — China, Mexico & India
Support supplier qualification, periodic re-qualification audits, and scorecard reviews for AI component suppliers
Execute Supplier Quality Agreements (SQAs) covering material certifications, First Article Inspection (FAI), critical specs, and dimensional tolerances
Issue Supplier Corrective Action Requests (SCARs) and drive to closure using 8D methodology; investigate root cause on repeat escapes
Support pre-shipment inspection checkpoints at overseas CM facilities to prevent quality escapes from reaching Giga facilities
Execute the incoming quality control (IQC) process for chillers, e-houses, and switchgear components — AQL-based sampling plans, accept/reject criteria, and non-conforming material (NCM) disposition
Build and maintain inspection checklists for critical AI pod components: bus bars, breakers, CTs, SPDs, chiller assemblies, and e-house structural/electrical elements
Execute in-process quality control plans (QCPs) and visual work instructions (VWIs) for safety-critical assembly operations — bus bar torquing, wiring termination, CT secondary connections
Perform final outgoing inspection and electrical test protocol: insulation resistance, continuity, CT polarity, and breaker functional tests — 100% on every unit
Maintain serialized test records and Certificate of Conformance (CoC) for every AI pod shipment
Execute routine, type, and special test protocols for chillers, e-houses, switchgear, and integrated AI pods
Continuous Improvement
Lead root cause analysis using structured tools — 8D, Fishbone, 5-Why — for internal non-conformances and field failures on AI product lines
Collaborate with manufacturing engineers on Lean/Six Sigma initiatives to reduce defects, scrap, and rework
Track and report quality KPIs for AI components: incoming PPM, first-pass yield (FPY), scrap and rework rate, and warranty claim rate
Support digital systems used to capture, track, and resolve NCRs, SCARs, and customer complaints; maintain the calibration register for gauges and test equipment used on AI lines
Customer & Compliance
Support the customer complaint process for AI product lines — intake, on-site investigation, 8D report, and formal closure within SLA (containment within 24 hours, full 8D within 30 days)
Support warranty claim investigation; represent Quality at customer sites during field investigations and commissioning inspections for AI pods
Ensure compliance with applicable safety and environmental regulations
Support interfacing with customers and regulatory agencies during audits, UL inspections, and project quality reviews
Requirements
Degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial Engineering, or a related technical field
3+ years of experience in quality engineering in electrical, power, cooling, or industrial manufacturing
Solid understanding of UL 891/67 compliance or equivalent LV switchgear/panelboard standards
Experience with supplier quality processes in an international CM environment — audits, corrective actions, and FAI documentation
Proficiency in IQC sampling methodology and incoming inspection practices
Hands-on experience with PFMEA, control plans, and visual work instructions
Strong root cause analysis skills — 8D, Fishbone, 5-Why
Strong communicator — able to write clear technical reports and interface with cross-functional teams
Ability to collaborate effectively with cross-border engineering and production teams (China, Mexico, India, US)
Bonus points
ASQ Certified Quality Engineer (CQE), Six Sigma Green Belt, or equivalent certification
Experience with cooling systems (chillers) or modular/prefabricated electrical enclosures (e-houses)
Experience using digital quality tools — ERP quality modules — to track NCRs, SCARs, and KPIs
