About the job

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 Mechanical Engineer, you will use your experience with design, construction, equipment operation and maintenance in the area of complex mission critical facilities. You will be involved in the development of complex mechanical systems and liquid cooled racks. Project involvement starts at due diligence, progresses through construction and commissioning, and develops into sustaining support for the internal operations team. You will provide and prepare all types of documents including: facility review checklists, facility audits, statement of work (SOW), total cost of ownership (TCO), concept design reviews, drawing review, budget, schedule, factory test and acceptance documents.
