Our team is geographically based, with the focus of having local staff to service the local regions. We collaborate with other project teams to select sites, contract sites, designs and build out the new sites.
The candidate needs to be familiar with data centre mechanical system engineering designs, building industrial standards and codes, CFD modeling, PUE calculations, systems commissioning, systems availability analysis. Heat transfer and emergency power generation experience are essential for this job.
* Participate and review in data center site selection and contractual evaluations, design solutions, and support project executions through construction to final site acceptance.
* Participate and review Data Center MEP Design and other necessary disciplines for new data center builds and data hall fit outs.
* Create data hall layout plans and perform test fits to validate server capacity plans and failover calculations.
* Participate in Testing and Commissioning Discussions to determine required tests to verify design elements.
* Support the DC Engineering FM team to become a Subject Matter Expert and understand how to overcome design limitations and risks.
* Conduct a periodic Audit or Assessment to access the effectiveness and practicality of the design in-use on our data centers.
* Be our ambassador to explain data center infrastructure design to visitors.
* To continually find ways to collaborate and break new ground to enhance MEP design to meet future business needs.
* Continually maintain positive and collaborative working relations with partner teams, vendors, teammates, and internal customers.

* Understand Power and Cooling Redundancy and how it is implemented in design (i.e., 2N or N+1 Distributed Redundant, UTI, TIA-942, ASHRAE standards).
* Experience with Cooling Redundancy and how Concurrent Maintainability is implemented in design (i.e, N+1 or N+2).
* Experience in the following areas:
o Lead or influence Engineering Design and Architect teams to complete Data Center Conceptual>30%>60%>90% Detailed Design Process.
o Practice Data Center Tiering Standards (i.e., TIA-942 Rated 3, or Uptime Tier 3) in a detailed design process.
o Lead or influence a construction team to complete Data Hall fit-out experience, including IT services Coordination, Power and Cooling Planning.
o Lead or influence a testing and commissioning team to perform L1 to L5 commissioning tests to validate the system design intent and resolve technical problems along the way.
Preferred Qualifications
* 4+ years or more experience in data center engineering.
* Mechanical and/or electrical engineering experience such as generators, chillers, cooling towers, air handling units, UPS, electrical sub-distribution systems, etc.
* Liquid cooling for IT systems.
* Strong verbal and written communication skills with attention to clarity and detail.
