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 Mechanical Engineer, you will be part of the
implementation and operational support of Google’s rapidly expanding data
centers. You will be responsible for overseeing the design, construction, and
commissioning of complex HVAC and mechanical distribution systems, ensuring
projects are delivered safely, swiftly, and with high quality. This involves
managing site-level mechanical engineering issues, ensuring compliance with
design standards and local regulations, supporting quality assurance, and
providing technical guidance to vendor teams. You will be a strong communicator
and collaborator who grows on construction sites and has experience with complex
mechanical systems, within mission-critical facilities, heavy industrial, oil
and gas, or semiconductor industries.
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: $214000 - $298000 (USD) + 25% bonus target + equity + benefits

RESPONSIBILITIES:
* Provide expert technical support to data center services and operations
teams, defining Mechanical system design requirements for multiple data
center projects from inception to completion.
* Develop, implement, and manage the mechanical designs at the site level,
starting from the basis of design through to the issuance of construction
documents for new builds, infrastructure upgrades, and renovations.
* Collaborate effectively with the Engineer of Record (EOR) to respond to
site-specific engineering Requests for Information (RFI) and ensure alignment
between Google's requirements and the overall design.
* Work closely with the core engineering team to provide site-specific
requirements during the development of the Basis of Design (BOD) and
coordinate system-level schematics with the EOR.
* Own and manage site-level power system issues during projects execution,
collaborating with cross-functional teams to identify and resolve challenges
effectively.
