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.

With your technical expertise, you ensure compliance with codes and standards, develop infrastructure improvements and serve as an expert in your specialty (e.g., cooling, electrical).

As a Data Center Mechanical Engineer, you will be an integral member of the Data Center Delivery and Engineering (DCDE) team which is a collection of Civil, Structure, Architecture (CSA) and Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing (MEP) design experts, mechanical and electrical field engineers, construction project managers, water/air experts, commissioning experts, data center services managers, and cost and project controls managers who design, schedule, construct, commission and close out the efficient data centers, at a safely and in a scalable manner.

In this role, 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.

Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and maintaining our data centers to building the next generation of Google platforms, we make Google's product portfolio possible. We're proud to be our engineers' engineers and love voiding warranties by taking things apart so we can rebuild them. We keep our networks up and running, ensuring our users have the best and fastest experience possible.

  • Contribute to the development of cross-project, cross-functional, and cross-organizational procedures and ensure alignment of the Mechanical Engineers' work with the work of multiple teams/projects.
  • Contribute to and review the Quality and Commissioning Plans for the electrical discipline. Support electrically relevant Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT) and all off and on-site commissioning. Participate in selection and onboarding of vendors.
