Senior Datacenter Engineer, Electrical Engineering

Our 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 a research and development department -- cutting-edge strategies are born, tested and tested again. Along with a team of great minds, you take on complex 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 senior-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 use your deep technical expertise to oversee data center projects from site due diligence through construction and operations. You will manage a comprehensive electrical scope, including power supply options, onsite generation, substation arrangements, utility interfacing, electrical infrastructure design, system resilience, and critical electrical studies (e.g., arc-flash, power modeling, and AI integration). You will partner with Architects and Engineers (A/E) to drive technical design across multiple projects. Using programmatic design principles, you will review A/E deliverables to ensure all project goals, safety standards, and Google requirements are met. Furthermore, you will drive cross-disciplinary coordination for rapid, safe construction and strategically integrate the latest electrical technologies into our infrastructure roadmaps. The AI and Infrastructure team is redefining what’s possible. We empower Google customers with breakthrough capabilities and insights by delivering AI and Infrastructure at unparalleled scale, efficiency, reliability and velocity. Our customers include Googlers, Google Cloud customers, and billions of Google users worldwide. We're the driving force behind Google's groundbreaking innovations, empowering the development of our cutting-edge AI models, delivering unparalleled computing power to global services, and providing the essential platforms that enable developers to build the future. From software to hardware our teams are shaping the future of world-leading hyperscale computing, with key teams working on the development of our TPUs, Vertex AI for Google Cloud, Google Global Networking, Data Center operations, systems research, and much more.

Drive scalable electrical systems design (HV, MV, LV, renewables) from site due diligence through construction, localizing internal standards for APAC data center projects. Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders and vendors to resolve program-level electrical issues and seamlessly integrate new product developments. Ensure designs and installations meet rigorous requirements through engineering analysis, factory witness tests, and adherence to safety, quality, and cost standards. Define system-level data center architecture and continuously update internal design specifications by incorporating lessons learned across all equipment. Develop operations and maintenance procedures while advocating best engineering execution practices for major infrastructure upgrades.

Minimum qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Engineering, a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience. 5 years of experience in mission-critical facility design and construction environments. Experience in electrical infrastructure. Preferred qualifications: Master's degree in Engineering, Business or other relevant field, or a Professional Engineering (PE) license. Experience in estimating, electrical design, operation, and commissioning of substations, switchgear, ATP/ATS, emergency power systems and their control
