The Senior Data Center Mechanical Engineer shall support hyperscale data center construction programs as a mechanical engineer with a focus on the design of new hyperscale data center buildings, the support of operations staff with engineering solutions and streamlining of construction issue resolutions.

This job is part of the Project Management function. They are responsible for the management of projects from initiation through completion.

• Manage all areas of project management for multiple real estate projects. This includes planning, design, construction, occupancy, and closeout.
• Work directly with clients to prepare all elements of the project. This includes the scope of work, project delivery resource requirements, cost estimates & budget, work plan schedule & milestones, quality control, and risk identification.
• Review and assist technical development of mechanical systems (both airside & waterside) for hyperscale data centers including campus planning, general layout/arrangements, CFD & noise modeling, climate data evaluations, hydraulic analyses, pipe sizing, bin hour analyses, etc.
• Oversee A/E design consultants and provide direction or escalation in accordance with established engineering standards.
• Peer review A/E design consultants’ deliverables including drawing sets, specifications, sequence of operations, calculations, models, etc. and provide comments & resolutions in accordance with established engineering standards.
• Review and advise on potential value engineering opportunities.
• Analyze for redundancies, failure modes and SPOFs while working with Reliability, Availability & Maintainability (RAM) modelers to verify conformance.
• Conduct rapid conceptual sketches using CAD or BIM for visualization and spatial/dimensional validations
• Experience with waterless cooling solutions (i.e.: air-cooled chillers, dry coolers, adiabatic systems) preferred but not required.
