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 Senior Data Center Engineer, you will provide field electrical engineering
support and issue resolution for the UK campus, supporting the Technical Project
Manager in the localized design and delivery of projects in line with the
schedule, cost, quality, technical compliance and safety requirements.
You will serve as the primary contact between Google, the Project Management
Consultancy and Specialist Contractors, co-ordinating with stakeholders for all
electrical field engineer efforts, responsible for overseeing the appointed
electrical installation activities and ensuring that the construction operations
and performance is in compliance with project or corporate environment, EHS
stands for Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS), quality and schedule
requirements, whilst maintaining relationships when interfacing with project
stakeholders. You will identify the workload while managing specific discipline
owner representatives to support the delivery of projects as per above mentioned
expectations.
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.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
* Define data center system-level, product architecture, research and
development, while helping to develop operations and maintenance procedures
for systems/processes.
* Conduct engineering analysis and research designs and methods of data center
equipment and facilities.
* Ensure designs and installations meet requirements (e.g., predicted cooling,
structural, operational concerns, etc.).
* Provide technical leadership to the projects, support and optimize project
design, scope, schedule, quality, commissioning, and safety for the
electrical discipline, and provide feedback to the central partner teams on
possible improvements.
* Contribute to the development of cross-project, cross-functional, and
cross-organizational procedures and ensure alignment of the Electrical
Engineers' work with multiple teams/projects.
