Responsibilities

  • Act as the definitive technical resource for mechanical contractors and Engineers of Record (EORs), supporting mechanical system design and resolving ambiguities to maintain construction momentum.
  • Perform periodic, rigorous site walk-throughs to verify that mechanical installations align with engineered specifications, focusing on pressure testing, weld inspection requirements, insulation integrity, and equipment placement.
  • Ensure that both evaporative and non-evaporative cooling systems are installed to meet Google and project-specific standards while managing overall site thermal performance.
  • Lead the field-side Request for Information (RFI) process to resolve spatial or mechanical conflicts, providing immediate engineering solutions to avoid rework, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to resolve complex design changes during construction.

Minimum qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 5 years of experience with thermal topology, including both evaporative cooling (e.g., cooling towers, adiabatic systems) and non-evaporative cooling (e.g., air-cooled chillers, CRAHs, dry coolers, closed-loop liquid cooling) topologies.
  • 5 years of experience with piping and fluid dynamics, including chilled water plant overviews, pumping systems, and hydronic balancing.
  • 5 years of experience in mechanical engineering.

Preferred qualifications:

  • Understanding of electrical systems to facilitate effective cross-discipline collaboration.
  • Understanding of pressurized systems and heavy equipment rigging safety.
  • Ability to work closely with mechanical contractors to ensure high-quality delivery while maintaining strict adherence to the project schedule.
  • Ability to diagnose mechanical integration issues in real-time.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to navigate a complex matrix organization.
