Senior Data Center Engineer

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:

* Bachelor's degree in Mechanical or Industrial Engineering, related

discipline, or equivalent practical experience.

* 5 years of experience in mission critical facility design and construction

environments.

* Experience in data center mechanical systems including

air-cooled/water-cooled chilled water plant, data hall air-side and

liquid-side cooling systems, fuel oil systems, fire alarm and fire protection

systems.

* Ability to travel 15% of the time across APAC countries as required.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:

* Master's degree in Engineering, Business or other relevant field, or a

professional engineering license.

* Experience managing or executing greenfield/brownfield data center

developments, expansions and colocation fit-outs.

* Track record of evaluating and negotiating technical requirements with

colocation operators and external engineering/construction partners.

* Understanding of global mechanical standards and local standards/practices in

various APAC countries.

* Familiarity with standard data center commissioning methodologies.

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).

Our multidisciplinary engineering team provides engineering support in the

design, construction, and operation of Google's data centers. As a Senior

Mechanical Engineer based in India, you will drive the engineering outcomes for

mission-critical complex third-party development, leased and colocation data

center sites across the APAC region. You will serve as the primary technical

authority representing the company’s design, engineering, and operational

standards during technical due diligence, design document reviews, and

construction submittal reviews and commissioning ensuring that complex power

infrastructure is built safely and correctly.

This role is critical for evaluating new facility opportunities, supporting

major infrastructure expansion and retrofit projects, optimizing colocation

deployments, and ensuring our critical infrastructure is delivered safely,

reliably, and efficiently. Leveraging your deep technical expertise, you will

collaborate with cross-functional partner teams, lead technical assessments, and

mentor other engineers.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

* Lead technical due diligence assessments for potential new leased and

colocation data center facilities across APAC, focusing on the entire

mechanical system including chilled water plant, data hall air-side and

liquid-side cooling systems, fuel oil systems, fire alarm and fire protection

systems.

* Conduct comprehensive design document reviews (Basis of Design, detailed

mechanical drawings, and P&ID) submitted by external A/E or colocation

partners. Review and approve equipment submittals, design development and

mechanical studies (e.g., CFD, hydraulic analysis).

* Lead the field-side RFI process, identifying potential spatial or mechanical

conflicts and providing immediate engineering solutions to avoid rework. Own

and manage the program and project level mechanical system issues regarding

the system design, identify and resolve the issues with cross functional

teams and stakeholders.
