## About the Role

* 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

## 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
