Senior Data Center Electrical Engineer

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 (https://e.g., cooling, electrical).

Data Center Services Engineering is a technical engineering team with a primary focus on providing a technical understanding of Google’s data center design to the field execution and operations teams in support of their initiatives.
