About the jobOur thirst for technology is a part of everything we do. The Data Center Engineering team takes the physical design of our data centers into the future. Our lab mirrors and the research and development department strategies are born, tested and tested again. Along with a team of great minds, you take on topics like how we use power or how to run state-of-the-art, environmentally-friendly facilities. You're a visionary who optimizes for efficiencies and never stops seeking improvements -- even small changes that can make a huge impact. You generate ideas, communicate recommendations to executive-level executives and drive implementation alongside facilities technicians.

With your technical expertise, you ensure compliance with codes and standards, develop infrastructure improvements and serve as an expert in your specialty (e.g., cooling, electrical).

In this role, you will provide and prepare all types of documents including investigative assessments across multiple layers of data, critical risk assessment input and critical de-risking recommendations at all business levels, summaries and presentations to facilitate decision-making, scope of work, concept designs, design specifications, detailed integrated design deliverables, drawing markup, milestone reviews, total cost of ownership analysis, budget, schedule, system test and acceptance documents, and review and acceptance of as-builts and submittals.Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and maintaining our data centers to building the next generation of Google platforms, we make Google's product portfolio possible. We're proud to be our engineers' engineers and love voiding warranties by taking things apart so we can rebuild them. We keep our networks up and running, ensuring our users have the best and fastest experience possible.Responsibilities

• Define data center system-level, product architecture, and Research and Development, while helping to develop operations and maintenance procedures for systems/processes.
• Conduct engineering analysis and research designs and methods of data center equipment and facilities.
• Ensure designs and installations meet requirements (e.g., predicted cooling, structural, operational concerns, etc.).
• Represent Google externally and internally at leadership levels with executive stakeholders.
• Demonstrate high complexity permitting processes.
