Job description

Location: Clark, Pampanga

Work Set-up: Fully Onsite

Job Description:

The Mechanical Design Engineer for Critical Facilities is responsible for the design, engineering, technical evaluation, and coordination of mechanical systems supporting data center facilities and mission-critical infrastructure.

The role focuses on developing reliable, energy-efficient, and maintainable mechanical engineering solutions for data center environments, including HVAC, cooling systems, chilled water systems, condenser water systems, mechanical piping, ventilation, and other associated building mechanical services.

Key Responsibilities:

Mechanical Systems Design and Engineering

• Develop mechanical engineering designs, calculations, specifications, and technical documentation for data center facilities.
• Design and evaluate HVAC systems, including air handling units (AHUs), fan coil units (FCUs), computer room air conditioning (CRAC), computer room air handling units (CRAH), and precision cooling systems.
• Perform cooling load calculations, heat load assessments, airflow calculations, and equipment capacity sizing.

Data Center Cooling and Thermal Management

• Evaluate and develop cooling solutions suitable for mission-critical data center environments.
• Understand and apply cooling concepts such as hot aisle/cold aisle containment, raised floor cooling, overhead cooling distribution, and in-row cooling.
• Assess airflow management, air distribution, temperature control, humidity control, and thermal performance.

Engineering Calculations and Technical Documentation

• Prepare and review engineering calculations.
• Prepare technical specifications, equipment schedules, design criteria, and material specifications.
• Develop mechanical design reports, engineering narratives, and basis of design documents.

Design Coordination and Technical Review

• Coordinate mechanical design activities with electrical, structural, architectural, fire protection, plumbing, and other engineering disciplines.
• Participate in design coordination meetings and multidisciplinary technical reviews.
• Review architectural and structural drawings to identify potential mechanical design conflicts.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering or an equivalent engineering discipline.
• Must be a Registered Mechanical Engineer.
• Exposure to data center, mission-critical facilities, semiconductor facilities, hospitals, or other critical environments is highly desirable.
• 2-4 years of experience in HVAC system design, cooling infrastructure, mechanical equipment selection, and engineering calculations.
• Knowledge of data center cooling architecture, redundancy, and thermal management principles.
• Knowledge of industry standards and codes, including Uptime, ASHRAE, NFPA, and
• local building codes.
