Job description

This role is a high-impact Mechanical Engineering position focused on designing and delivering next-generation, AI-optimized data center infrastructure at gigawatt scale.

You will own mechanical systems end-to-end-from early-stage concept design and analytical modeling through construction and deployment-supporting high-density compute environments. The work centers on developing scalable, modular mechanical templates and cooling solutions that enable rapid global rollout of data center capacity.

This is a technically deep and execution-heavy role, requiring strong ownership across design, analysis, and external partner coordination in highly complex, fast-moving infrastructure programs., * Lead design and development of mechanical systems for AI-optimized, high-density data centers

  • Develop modular mechanical templates to enable repeatable, scalable global deployment
  • Serve as technical liaison between internal engineering teams and external consultants
  • Ensure mechanical systems integrate with high-density cooling and power architectures
  • Own systems from conceptual design and modeling through construction and commissioning
  • Perform CFD modeling and capacity analysis to inform design decisions
  • Manage external partners and ensure delivery of high-quality mechanical designs
  • Continuously improve mechanical standards and deployment methodologies across projects

Requirements

  • 5-8 years of experience in mechanical engineering for large-scale industrial or mission-critical facilities (data centers strongly preferred)
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering
  • Strong experience with high-density cooling systems, including liquid-to-chip and immersion cooling
  • Proficiency in Revit / BIM for design development and template creation
  • Experience with CFD modeling and thermal/capacity planning
  • Strong ability to manage external engineering partners and drive technical accountability
  • Comfort operating in fast-paced, ambiguous, high-ownership environments
  • Preferred: Professional Engineer (PE) license

Benefits & conditions

  • The base salary for this W-2 position ranges from $96.15 - $120.19 per hour, depending on experience, skills, qualifications, and location.
