Job description

Project Engineer (Data Center Systems)

This role will support a technical program owner while partnering closely with technical leads responsible for facility developments within largescale data centers. This role is centered on data center infrastructure: racks, cooling systems, mechanical/electrical interfaces, containment solutions, structural framing, and spatial systems integration that enable highdensity compute deployments. Dayto day, this person will participate in highly technical engineering discussions regarding evolving hardware requirements, fan coil units, cooling strategies, and holistic power, mechanical, and structural integration. They will interpret these multidisciplinary 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, and other BIM tools) to evaluate overall building systems integration. They will run and support large crossfunctional meetings (often with 50+ participants) across internal teams and vendors, ensuring alignment and driving clarity across multiple concurrent workstreams. This role requires strong engineering intuition across multiple building disciplines, the ability to follow complex technical conversations without being spoonfed, and the autonomy to drive forward ambiguous, rapidly evolving engineering requirements specific to data center infrastructure.
