You will serve as the primary on-site authority, ensuring that cooling infrastructures essential for high-availability environments are installed, integrated, and optimized according to design intent. You will be the lead technical point-of-contact (POC) for all mechanical and HVAC-related engineering questions during the construction phase. You will be responsible for bridging the gap between high-level thermal designs and physical site execution, ensuring maximum system reliability and efficiency.

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.

Responsibilities

• Act as the definitive technical resource for mechanical contractors, resolving ambiguities in piping and instrumentation diagram (P&IDs) and ductwork layouts to maintain construction momentum.

• Perform periodic site walk-throughs to verify that mechanical installations align with engineered specifications, focusing on pressure testing, weld inspection requirements, insulation integrity, and equipment placement.

• Ensure that both evaporative and non-evaporative systems are installed to meet Google and project specific standards and requirements.

• Lead the field-side request for information (RFI) process, identifying potential spatial or mechanical conflicts and providing immediate engineering solutions to avoid rework.

• Facilitate cross-discipline collaboration with control systems and electrical teams to ensure internal design specifications are met.
