d perform test fits to validate server capacity planning, redundancy, and failover requirements.
- Participate in testing and commissioning discussions to define and verify required tests that confirm design intent, performance, and reliability.
- Support the DC Engineering and FM teams as a subject matter expert, identifying design limitations, assessing risks, and recommending mitigation strategies.
- Conduct periodic audits and assessments to evaluate the effectiveness, practicality, and performance of designs in operational data centers.
- Act as an ambassador for data center infrastructure design, maintain strong collaborative relationships with internal teams and partners, and continuously innovate MEP solutions to meet future business needs.
Qualifications
Minimum Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related engineering discipline.
- Demonstrated knowledge of data center power and cooling system design, including load modeling, capacity calculations, and system sizing.
- Strong understanding of power and cooling redundancy architectures and their implementation (e.g., 2N, N+1 distributed redundancy), with working knowledge of Uptime Institute, TIA-942, and ASHRAE standards.
- Experience designing cooling systems with redundancy and implementing concurrent maintainability strategies (e.g., N+1, N+2).
- Proven experience leading or influencing engineering, architectural, construction, and commissioning teams through the full data center lifecycle, including Conceptual, 30%, 60%, and 90% design phases, data hall fit-outs, and Level 1 through Level 5 commissioning.
- Hands-on mechanical and/or electrical engineering experience with mission-critical infrastructure, including generators, chillers, cooling towers, air handling units, UPS systems, and electrical sub-distribution systems.
- Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to clearly convey technical concepts to diverse stakeholders.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Professional Engineer or Chartered Engineer Certifications.
- 4 years or more experience in data center engineering.
