As a Facilities Technician - Mechanical, you will provide engineering ownership for the reliability, efficiency, and lifecycle performance of mission-critical mechanical and HVAC systems supporting hyperscale data centers. This role sets technical direction, resolves high-impact issues, and drives standards and upgrades that protect uptime and improve long-term performance.
Key Responsibilities
Define, review, and improve mechanical/HVAC architectures and designs for high-availability environments (e.g., chilled water, DX, airside, redundancy strategies).
Provide Tier-3 technical escalation for complex issues, including RCA, corrective action development, and verification of sustained fixes.
Develop and maintain fleet standards for cooling redundancy, controls integration, equipment selection (e.g., chillers), and energy performance.
Partner on capacity planning, retrofits, and emerging initiatives (e.g., liquid cooling, efficiency projects), ensuring operability and maintainability.
Lead or support vendor technical reviews, commissioning acceptance criteria, and operational handover requirements.
Partner with procurement, facilities, and construction to improve total cost of ownership through standardization and performance-driven specifications.
Ideal Candidate Profile
Extensive experience in mission-critical mechanical systems (data centers preferred; other high-uptime environments acceptable).
Bachelor’s/Master’s in Mechanical Engineering; PE strongly preferred where applicable.
Strong working knowledge of ASHRAE guidance and cooling system design/operation fundamentals.
Skills and Competencies
Strong technical judgment, structured problem solving, and ability to communicate risk and tradeoffs clearly.
Familiarity with modeling/simulation tools (e.g., Carrier HAP, TRACE, CFD) is a plus when applied to real decisions.
