Oracle in Abilene, TX is seeking a Facilities Operations Technician II - Mechanical to support mission-critical HVAC systems in a hyperscale data center.
You will troubleshoot, maintain, and upgrade chilled water, DX cooling, and building management systems, coordinating with site operations and vendors to ensure uptime.
This role offers competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits, and opportunities for long-term career development within Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
Qualifications
- Experience with mission-critical, industrial, pharmaceutical, semiconductor, healthcare, or large commercial mechanical systems.
- Ability to interpret mechanical drawings, P&IDs, sequences of operation, and equipment documentation.
- Working knowledge of chilled water systems, DX cooling, controls integration, redundancy concepts, and operational risk.
- Technical certification, trade experience, apprenticeship completion, or equivalent practical experience preferred.
- Experience with chillers, pumps, cooling towers, CRAH/CRAC units, heat exchangers, water treatment interfaces, controls, and mechanical distribution systems.
- Familiarity with BMS, PLC/controls concepts, trending, alarm management, commissioning, and vendor coordination.
- Experience supporting maintenance planning, acceptance testing, energy‑efficiency projects, or equipment change‑outs.
- EPA Section 608 Technician Certification preferred for roles involving refrigerant-handling activities on stationary HVACR equipment.
- ASHRAE certifications and training are relevant for growing HVAC depth; ASHRAE currently maintains multiple certifications and identifies the Certified HVAC Designer (CHD) credential as validation of HVAC design competency.

- OEM or manufacturer training on chillers, CRAH/CRAC systems, cooling towers, controls platforms, or water‑cooled plant equipment preferred.
- Uptime Institute's Accredited Tier Designer (ATD) is more design-oriented than technician-oriented, but it is a legitimate data center credential for candidates involved in higher-level infrastructure design and Tier concepts.
