Responsibilities:

• Drive execution of our technical requirements for third-party data center delivery partners, ensuring design intent is consistently translated from BOD through construction documents.
• Define the design execution framework,deliverable requirements, review gates, and quality standards,for each partner engagement.
• Drive accountability for partner deliverable quality across milestones, evaluating deliverables for cross-discipline consistency and alignment to our requirements.
• Partner with external design teams and stakeholders to execute design document development and issuance across all project phases.

Change Management & Technical Continuity:

• Own the design change management process across projects, ensuring technical decisions are documented, resolved, and implemented through construction.
• Review and develop responses to contractor RFIs, maintaining design intent while accommodating field conditions.
• Own technical continuity across design, construction, commissioning, and turnover, driving alignment between internal leads on phase transition standards and acceptance criteria.
• Support project closeout and as-built documentation processes.

Constructability & Risk Management:

• Facilitate constructability review processes between design and construction teams, identifying integration risks and maintaining alignment between design intent and field execution as conditions evolve.
• Identify and mitigate design risks; ensure robust QA/QC practices across the design and construction lifecycle.
• Perform project site reviews and deliver technical reports on design compliance and construction progress.

Cross-Functional Coordination:

• Interface with internal stakeholders,construction execution, supply chain, facilities operations, and security,to align design solutions with technical and business objectives.
• Partner with internal teams to define infrastructure requirements and translate them into actionable design criteria for external partners.
• Identify and implement opportunities for process improvements, design optimization, and schedule/performance/cost tradeoffs.
• Review commissioning scripts and final reports to validate performance and functionality against our standards.

Qualifications:

• 10+ years in data center or mission-critical infrastructure delivery, spanning design and delivery phases.
• Direct experience in owner's engineer or technical oversight roles,not purely design production or purely project management.
• Working knowledge of mechanical, electrical, and cooling systems in data center environments.
• Experience managing design change processes, RFIs, and construction documentation workflows.
• Track record of coordinating across multiple disciplines and organizations on complex infrastructure projects.
• Deep knowledge of industry standards, building codes, and safety standards applicable to mission-critical facilities.
• Comfortable operating with authority in ambiguous environments where processes need to be built, not just followed.
• BS in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Architecture, or related field.

Preferred:

• Professional Engineer (PE) or Registered Architect (RA) license.
• Experience stamping construction drawing packages.
• Proficiency with Revit/BIM, Autodesk, or similar design software applications.
• Experience integrating sustainability, energy efficiency, and resiliency goals into data center system designs.
• Direct experience with large-scale AI/HPC infrastructure, including high-density cooling systems and power distribution at 50+ MW scale.
