This is more than a design role; it's an opportunity to be at the very heart of physical infrastructure development. You will be instrumental in crafting efficient and robust data center layouts, swiftly resolving complex integration challenges, and serving as a critical bridge between diverse engineering disciplines. Your work will directly enable the scalable and reliable operation of advanced technology platforms, solving real-world infrastructure puzzles that keep the digital world running smoothly.

Key Responsibilities

• Independently draft and modify detailed floor-level and rack-level CAD layouts, demonstrating expert proficiency with standard commands for direct design execution.
• Apply a deep, practical understanding of physical data center power and cooling systems, including power distribution methodologies (e.g., busways, whips, or rPDUs) and their underlying electrical and mechanical principles.
• Perform direct, floor-level engineering troubleshooting to diagnose and resolve design anomalies and physical integration issues.
• Generate preliminary layout designs autonomously, translating complex requirements into actionable infrastructure plans.
• Act as a critical liaison, fostering seamless communication and collaboration between facilities, power/cooling teams, and physical cabling infrastructure stakeholders.

Required Qualifications

• Exceptional hands-on proficiency in CAD software, with a proven ability to independently draft and modify complex floor-level and rack-level layouts without reliance on external support.
• Demonstrated expertise in physical data center infrastructure, encompassing a deep, practical understanding of power distribution (e.g., busways, whips, or rPDUs) and cooling systems at a fundamental electrical and mechanical level.
• Proven experience in direct, floor-level engineering troubleshooting of design anomalies and physical integration challenges.
• Ability to independently generate preliminary layout designs and resolve intricate physical integration inquiries with a proactive approach.
• A strong technical integration mindset, serving as a vital link between facilities, power/cooling, and physical cabling infrastructure. This role requires hands-on engineering and problem-solving, rather than primarily managing project financials or schedules.
