design for medium-scale production, structural beams/elements, and
international building codes.
* Operational knowledge of construction safety procedures.
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 be an integral member of the Data
Center Delivery and Engineering (DCDE) team which is a collection of Civils
Structure, Architecture (CSA), and Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing (MEP) design
experts, mechanical and electrical field engineers, construction project
managers, water/air experts, commissioning experts, data center services
managers, and cost and project controls managers who design, schedule,
construct, commission and close out the most efficient data centers in the
world, at a fast-pace, safely and in a scalable manner.
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, and 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
Mechanical discipline, and provide feedback to the central partner teams on
possible improvements.
* Provide mechanical technical leadership, resolving critical field issues.
