  • Collaborate with design and construction teams to review mechanical engineering drawings, specifications, and commissioning plans for new data center builds and retrofits
  • Partner with environmental health and safety teams to ensure mechanical systems meet regulatory requirements for water discharge, chemical handling, and environmental compliance
  • Provide technical guidance to operations engineers and technicians on maintenance procedures, system troubleshooting, and equipment lifecycle management
  • Lead cross-functional working groups to evaluate emerging cooling technologies and water conservation strategies applicable to hyperscale data center environments
  • Develop and deliver technical training programs on environmental and water mechanical systems for operations and engineering personnel
  • Support capacity planning and risk assessments for mechanical infrastructure, identifying vulnerabilities and recommending mitigation strategies

Requirements
