Role Scope
Own mechanical engineering across the portfolio: cooling plants, liquid loops, and airside from reference design to energized.
Set the mechanical reference design for direct-to-chip liquid cooling and evolve it with each build's lessons.
Make the field mechanical calls, routing conflicts, equipment substitutions, sequence changes, at build speed.
Review consultant packages with owner-of-record rigor before they hit the field.
Responsibilities
- Engineer gigawatts from drawing to energized, in months not years.
- Own technical execution across every build: the drawings, the field questions, and the engineering calls that keep multiple concurrent gigawatt sites moving.
- Engineer data centers that go up in months, not years. At that pace rework is not an option: problems get caught on paper or they cost a data hall.
- Design it once, build it a hundred times. Every site's lessons roll into the reference design on the way to 50GW+, so each build starts ahead of the last.
Requirements
- Led mechanical engineering for data center or heavy industrial programs.
- Know liquid cooling at the design level: hydraulics, controls interface, redundancy.
- Made field engineering calls under schedule pressure that held up.
- Manage design firms with technical authority, not just contract terms.
Nice-to-Haves
- PE license.
- Direct-to-chip cooling.
- Modular skid packages.
- Hydraulic and CFD modeling.
