Austin, United States META Full time

Summary:

Meta is seeking a Connectivity Design Engineer to join our DEC Design team. Our Data Centers are the foundation upon which our rapidly growing infrastructure efficiently operates and our innovative services are delivered. This role is responsible for the design of inside and outside plant structured cabling and infrastructure for our data center installations – including new builds, retrofits, special projects, and technology modifications. Design Engineers must be capable of developing designs as well providing effective oversight of outsourced design work. In addition to assuring timely delivery of designs that meet (or exceed) project requirements, Design Engineers are expected to drive best practices and establish tools, processes, and standards consistent with large-scale data center deployments. Full design lifecycle engagement is required – with lessons learned from field deployments rolled into future programmatic designs. The Design Engineer is expected to collaborate effectively with internal and external stakeholders – assuring all structured cabling design requirements are met in design execution.

  10. Partner with internal and external teams to drive programmatically approved changes across applicable projects.

  11. Oversee and maintain documents reflecting project completion deliverables (i.e. as-built documentation), updating as required.

  12. Collaborate with internal stakeholders to deliver project designs meeting capacity and network requirements as well as rollout timelines.

  13. Drive scalable structured cabling solutions throughout Meta owned or operated data center spaces and support facilities.

  14. Serve as a Technical SME for programs and projects that one leads.

  15. Provide regular project status updates and support GDCC and corporate dashboards that capture delivery, cost, quality, and other established metrics.

  16. Participate in various team syncs to drive alignment, visibility, and consistency in program and project execution. Identify and respond to risks and high-priority issues timely and effectively.
