various project locations.

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 the Lead Technical Point of Contact (POC) for all electrical engineering and

design matters on-site, in this role, you will serve as the bridge between

design and execution, ensuring that power infrastructure is built safely and

correctly.

Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the

Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and

maintaining our data centers to building the next generation of Google

platforms, we make Google's product portfolio possible. We're proud to be our

engineers' engineers and love voiding warranties by taking things apart so we

can rebuild them. We keep our networks up and running, ensuring our users have

the best and fastest experience possible.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills,

experience, and relevant education or training.

US: $144000 - $208000 (USD) + 15% bonus target + equity + benefits

RESPONSIBILITIES:

* Serve as the primary technical liaison during construction. Resolve design

ambiguities and provide engineering solutions to field-fit issues.

* Perform periodic site walk-throughs. Review installation quality to ensure

strict adherence to engineered drawings and specifications.

* Identify and resolve conflicts between design intent and physical site

constraints before they impact the construction schedule.

* Apply local codes (e.g., NEC/NFPA) and industry standards to ensure every

installation is compliant and safe.

* Act as a technical mentor and advisor to electrical contractors, ensuring the

Request for Information (RFI) process is streamlined and technically sound.
