Our thirst for technology is a part of everything we do. The Data Center Engineering team takes the physical design of our data centers into the future. Our lab mirrors a research and development department - cutting edge strategies are born, tested and tested again. Along with a team of great minds, you take on complex topics like how we use power or how to run state of the art, environmentally friendly facilities. You're a visionary who optimizes for efficiencies and never stops seeking improvements - even small changes that can make a huge impact. You generate ideas, communicate recommendations to senior level executives and drive implementation alongside facilities technicians.
With your technical expertise, you ensure compliance with codes and standards, develop infrastructure improvements and serve as an expert in your specialty (e.g., cooling, electrical).
As a Data Center Mechanical Engineer, you will have demonstrated design, construction, and equipment operation and maintenance expertise in the area of mission critical facilities for EMEA. You will be involved in the development of mechanical systems and infrastructure from site assessments and concept design to greenfield construction, along with modification of existing infrastructures on global capital projects.
In this role, you will provide and prepare all types of documents including scope of work (SOW), concept designs, design specifications, detailed integrated design deliverables, drawing markup, milestone reviews, total cost of ownership (TCO) analysis, budget, schedule, system test and acceptance documents, and review and acceptance of as built and submittals.
Responsibilities- Design and localize new builds, upgrades, and expansions of hyperscale data centers and campuses.
- Collaborate across disciplines and functions (e.g., mechanical, electrical, networking, project management, and operations) to address and resolve interrelated issues.
- Update and maintain internal design specifications, drawings, and standards to reflect the latest configurations.
- Identify and resolve technical issues raised by cross functional stakeholders.
- Review and assist in the technical development of mechanical systems (both airside and waterside) for hyperscale data centers, including campus planning, general layouts, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), noise modeling, climate data evaluations, hydraulic analyses, pipe sizing, and bin hour analyses.
