The pay range for this role is $95k- $135k per annum including any bonuses or variable pay. Tech Mahindra also offers benefits like medical, vision, dental, life, disability insurance and paid time off (including holidays, parental leave, and sick leave, as required by law). Ask our recruiters for more details on our Benefits package. The exact offer terms will depend on the skill level, educational qualifications, experience, and location of the candidate.
JD:
Control, Automation, Cooling Distribution Units, Liquid Cooling, BMS/SCADA & DCIM Integration
The role is responsible for defining and leading modularization of Cooling Distribution Units (CDUs) and associated data center subsystems with strong control and automation content. The candidate will convert customer-specific CDU and data center cooling/control requirements into reusable, scalable, configurable modules covering mechanical skid interfaces, electrical panels, PLC/DDC controls, sensors, safety interlocks, communication protocols, BMS/SCADA/DCIM integration, test procedures and product documentation.
The position requires a system-level engineering mindset combining thermal-fluid equipment, electrical controls, PLC/RTU automation, industrial communications, cybersecurity basics, reliability, serviceability, manufacturability and data center operational requirements.
Key Responsibilities
Lead modular architecture definition for CDU products and other data center control and automation applications.
Develop configurable module strategy covering standard CDU capacities, pump redundancy, heat exchanger options, valve packages, sensor variants, control panel ratings and communication interfaces.
Define control philosophy for CDU operation including pump sequencing, pressure control, flow control, temperature control, bypass control, leak detection, alarms, fail-safe modes and emergency stop behavior.
Create reusable electrical and control panel building blocks including PLC/DDC, I/O, VFDs, power supplies, isolators, terminal blocks, relays, HMIs and network devices.
Develop standard I/O list, data point list, signal naming convention, alarm matrix and communication register map for BMS, SCADA and DCIM integration.
Work with mechanical, electrical, controls, firmware/software, manufacturing, quality, sourcing and service teams to convert custom designs into platform modules.
Prepare interface control documents for CDU integration with facility chilled water loops, rack liquid cooling loops, BMS, SCADA, DCIM, EMS and customer OT networks.
Ensure modular designs address manufacturability, maintainability, field serviceability, testability, safety, cybersecurity and cost optimization.
Review vendor selections for PLCs, sensors, VFDs, valves, pumps, meters, control panels, gateways and communication devices.
Support NPI, prototype build, FAT, SAT, integrated system testing, commissioning and field issue resolution.
