Role Description

The ideal Senior team member will provide leadership in many areas but specific to this position is the ability to support the analysis of data center infrastructure as part of our strategy development projects. The skill sets are broken into 4 categories:

• Electrical
• Mechanical
• Operations
• Master Planning

The successful candidate must have these skills for the accurate completion of various data center “due diligence” tasks as part of an overall team conducting a data center strategy analysis for our client.

Qualifications

• Electrical:
  • Demonstrated expertise in interpreting electrical one-line diagrams and evaluating mission-critical electrical distribution systems.
  • Strong understanding of electrical redundancy concepts, reliability principles, load calculations, and identifying single points of failure.
  • Ability to assess the condition, operation, and maintenance effectiveness of critical power infrastructure.
  • Experience collecting, analyzing, and interpreting operational data from electrical infrastructure.
  • Working knowledge of the National Electrical Code (NEC) and mission-critical facility design standards.
  • Strong communication, presentation, and computer skills.
• Mechanical:
  • Interpret mechanical one-line drawings and evaluate HVAC infrastructure in mission-critical facilities.
  • Assess the condition, operation, and maintenance of mechanical infrastructure.
  • Analyze mechanical system designs to identify components, single points of failure, and energy optimization opportunities.
  • Collect, interpret, and analyze operational data from mechanical equipment.
  • Apply industry best practices for mission-critical mechanical systems.
  • Serve as a confident, customer-facing mechanical subject matter expert.
• Operations:
  • Develop maintenance staffing plans and define the technical skill requirements needed to support mission-critical facility operations.
  • Operate and evaluate Building Monitoring and Control Systems (BMS/BAS).
  • Assess the condition, maintenance practices, and documentation of mission-critical infrastructure.
  • Evaluate operational processes to ensure reliability, compliance, and best practices.
  • Identify single points of failure and develop practical, cost-effective mitigation recommendations.
  • Demonstrate comprehensive knowledge of mission-critical systems.
• Conceptual Master Planning:
  • Evaluate the overall facility and provide input in planning sessions and workshops.
  • Assist in the development of conceptual designs for infrastructure expansion and/or capacity changes.
  • Possess a complete understanding of redundancy requirements and Tier levels.
  • Evaluate the overall critical loading requirements for data center “greenfield” options.
  • Provide ROM (Rough Order of Magnitude) estimates (+/- 30%) for recommendations.
  • Present findings and interact with customers at all levels.

Requirements

• Managing and participating in the delivery of major projects.
• Communicate professionally, effectively, and persuasively in verbal and written form.
• Participate as an industry expert in symposiums, professional journals, and webinars.
• Willingness to travel, averaging 25%-50%.
• Desirable qualifications include applicable data center professional certifications and 10+ years of data center operational experience.
• BA/BS from an accredited College/University; Engineering or Computer Science degree is a plus.
• Ability to pass a background check prior to offer letter.
• Hold a U.S. passport and travel internationally.

Benefits

• Comprehensive benefits package that supports well-being, professional development, and work-life balance.
• Salary range of $125,000 to $155,000 per year, with potential for bonuses and overtime.
