About the job

Our thirst for technology is a part of everything we do. The Data Center Engineering team takes the physical design of our data centers into the future. Our lab mirrors a research and development department -- cutting-edge strategies are born, tested and tested again. Along with a team of great minds, you take on complex topics like how we use power or how to run state-of-the-art, environmentally-friendly facilities. You're a visionary who optimizes for efficiencies and never stops seeking improvements -- even small changes that can make a huge impact. You generate ideas, communicate recommendations to senior-level executives and drive implementation alongside facilities technicians.

As the Data Center Mechanical Engineer, you will be responsible for the technical support of the localized design effort (campus plan through to detailed design) for field engineering support through project delivery and commissioning, and for engineering reviews of the close-out documentation.

The AI and Infrastructure team works on the world’s toughest problems, redefining what’s possible and the possible easy. We empower Google customers by delivering AI and Infrastructure at unparalleled scale, efficiency, reliability and velocity. Our customers include Googlers, Googler Cloud customers, and billions of Google users worldwide. We’re at the center of amazing work at Google by being the “flywheel” that enables our advanced AI models, delivers computing power across global services, and offers platforms that developers use to build services.

In AI and Infrastructure, we shape the future of hyperscale computing by inventing and creating world-leading future technology, and drive global impact by contributing to Google infrastructure, from software to hardware (including building Vertex AI for Google Cloud). We work on complex technologies at a global scale with key players in the AI and systems space. Join a team of talented individuals who not only work together to keep data centers operating efficiently but also create a legacy of driving innovation by building some of the most complex systems technologies.

Responsibilities

• Drive project mechanical outcomes of high complexity and scope as a key contributor, integrating feedback from multiple stakeholders when necessary.
• Contribute to project mechanical scoping and direction, and manage project mechanical priorities and allocation of technical resources within the project.
• Provide technical leadership to the projects, support and optimize project design, scope, schedule, quality, commissioning, and safety for mechanical discipline. Provide feedback to the central partner teams on possible improvements.
• Troubleshoot advanced mechanical system events, escalate only the most complex issues as appropriate. Contribute to the development of cross-project, cross-functional, and cross-organizational procedures and ensure alignment of the mechanical engineer’s work with multiple teams/projects.
• Support interactions with the authorities, searching for possible solutions on inspections deficiencies, third-party inspection agreements, and advance statements/instructions from the authorities’ correction requests.
