  • You will also coordinate mechanical interfaces with electrical systems and support equipment selection and construction sequencing.
  • Développer des architectures de refroidissement pour des installations neuves, des rénovations et des installations exploitées par des partenaires.
  • Concevoir des centrales, des systèmes de rejet de chaleur, des systèmes de distribution hydronique, des systèmes de refroidissement à air et des infrastructures de refroidissement liquide.
  • Understand applicable mechanical, plumbing, energy, and safety codes and standards
  • Can balance cooling performance, efficiency, water consumption, reliability, cost, and delivery schedule
  • Understand mechanical redundancy, failure domains, maintainability, and operational requirements
  • Can develop and review P&IDs, mechanical layouts, equipment schedules, technical specifications, and engineering calculations
  • Communicate clearly across engineering, construction, operations, vendors, and executive stakeholders
  • Can evaluate system performance across changing weather conditions and compute loads

Requirements

  • This role requires a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering and experience designing mechanical systems for data centers or large industrial environments.
  • Posséder des normes de conception mécanique et des architectures de référence pour les centres de données AI à grande échelle.
  • Hold a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering or equivalent practical experience
  • Have experience designing mechanical systems for data centers, mission-critical facilities, central plants, or large industrial environments
  • Understand hydronic systems, heat transfer, chilled-water systems, heat rejection, pumping, filtration, and water treatment
  • Experience designing hyperscale, colocation, HPC, or AI data centers
  • Experience with high-density GPU infrastructure and direct-to-chip liquid cooling
  • Experience with CDUs, warm-water cooling, dry coolers, adiabatic systems, or water-side economization
  • Familiarity with CFD, Pipe-Flo, AFT Fathom, Revit, or comparable engineering tools
  • Experience with water chemistry, glycol systems, filtration, flushing, and cooling-system cleanliness requirements
  • Experience supporting factory testing, commissioning, integrated systems testing, or failure investigations
  • Professional Engineer licensure or progress toward licensure
