Datacenter People are currently supporting a European data center developer and operator in the search for a Data Center Design Consultant to join their Solutions team on a contract basis.
This is a technically focused, customer-facing role supporting hyperscale and large-scale data center projects at the early design and pre-construction stages.
The position sits at the intersection of engineering, design, and commercial engagement - working closely with customers to translate requirements into scalable, high-quality data center solutions.
The Opportunity
You will be involved in the early phases of major data center developments (RIBA 0-3), supporting hyperscalers, neo-cloud providers, and government clients in defining their infrastructure requirements.
The role focuses on designing tailored data center solutions across power, cooling, and operational infrastructure, ensuring projects are set up for successful delivery.
What the Job Involves...
* Engage in pre-sales discussions with hyperscale, cloud and enterprise customers
* Develop customized data center design solutions and fit-outs
* Translate technical requirements into scalable infrastructure designs
* Act as a trusted advisor to customers throughout early project phases
* Lead and coordinate cross-functional teams (architects, engineers, contractors)
* Support RFI/RFP processes and technical solution development
* Present technical concepts to senior stakeholders and decision makers
* Collaborate with internal sales, design and operations teams
* Support post-sales and continuous project development activities
The role requires close collaboration across internal and external stakeholders to ensure designs are technically sound, commercially viable, and aligned with customer needs.
We're Looking for Someone Who...
* Experience in data center design, particularly in hyperscale or large scale environments
* Background in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, or data center operations
* Experience in technical pre-sales or customer facing engineering roles
* Strong understanding of data center power, cooling, and redundancy systems
* Ability to communicate complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders
* Experience working with hyperscalers and cloud providers would be highly advantageous.
What Makes This Role Interesting...
* Opportunity to work on large-scale, high-profile data center developments
* Early-stage involvement in projects (RIBA 0-3) with real influence on design
* Exposure to hyperscale and next-generation infrastructure projects
* Combination of technical depth and customer-facing responsibility
* Growing European business with strong investment in new developments
