Job Description

This role will support a technical program owner while partnering closely with technical leads responsible for server hall developments within large‑scale data centers. This role is centered on the server hall: the racks, cooling systems, mechanical interfaces, and structural elements that enable high‑density compute deployments. Day‑to‑day, this person will participate in highly technical engineering discussions, evolving rack requirements, fancoil units, cooling strategies, and power/mechanical integration. They will interpret these requirements and translate them into clear engineering bulletins, design documents, and decision logs. The Project Engineer will perform or review CAD/BIM modeling (Revit, SolidWorks, BIM tools) to evaluate structural loading, mechanical integration, and the impact of increasing compute density on the server hall’s built environment. They will run and support large cross‑functional meeting (often with 50+ participants) across internal teams and vendors, ensuring alignment and driving clarity across multiple concurrent workstreams. This role requires strong engineering intuition, the ability to follow complex technical conversations without being spoon‑fed, and the autonomy to drive forward ambiguous, rapidly evolving engineering requirements specific to the server hall.

Required Skills & Experience

• 5–7 years of experience as a Project Engineer supporting data centers
• Background in Structural Engineering (preferred), or Civil Engineering / Architecture with building‑systems exposure
• Experience with CAD/BIM modeling tools (Revit, SolidWorks, BIM, or similar)
• Ability to understand structural loading and how increased compute density impacts the built environment
• Experience supporting engineering work related to racks, cooling systems, fancoil units, or mechanical interfaces
• Ability to follow highly technical discussions across structural, mechanical, and architectural domains
• Experience running or supporting large cross‑functional meetings
• Strong technical writing skills for engineering bulletins, design decisions, and documentation updates
• Ability to work with high autonomy, ask the right questions, and execute without step‑by‑step direction

Nice to Have Skills & Experience

• Server hall experience (rack integration, chip deployments, cooling evolution)
• Experience at a hyperscale data center operator
• Experience with fancoil units or cooling systems that evolve with chip/rack requirements
• Exposure to design verification testing (DVT)
• Familiarity with power architecture
Experience supporting teams deploying TPUs, GPUs, or other high‑density chips

Benefit packages for this role will start on the 1st day of employment and include medical, dental, and vision insurance, as well as HSA, FSA, and DCFSA account options, and 401k retirement account access with employer matching. Employees in this role are also entitled to paid sick leave and/or other paid time off as provided by applicable law.
