Job Description

Join a leading team dedicated to innovating and designing cutting-edge data center solutions As an architect, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our data center infrastructure. Here's what you can expect:

  • Architecture and Standards

  • Take ownership of the complete reference architectures for site power (HV/MV/LV), mechanical/cooling systems (air, liquid, adiabatic), UPS, BESS, and building systems.

  • Define design parameters to support density growth (HPC/AI) and modularity, while implementing effective redundancy and maintainability strategies (N+1/2N).

  • Develop and update design guides, specifications, and acceptance criteria in alignment with global codes and best practices.

  • Integrated Design and Delivery

  • Lead collaborative design efforts from initial concept through to successful commissioning (L1-L5).

  • Validate system interactions using studies and models (load flow, short-circuit, arc flash, CFD/thermal analysis, acoustics, structural interfaces).

  • Ensure smooth integration of controls (BMS/SCADA/EMS/PLC), as well as monitoring and alarm systems for optimal performance and safety.

  • Efficiency, Sustainability, and Cost Management

  • Set and achieve targets for PUE, WUE while balancing trade-offs between energy, water, and reliability.

  • Lead the development of total cost of ownership (TCO) analysis to minimize capex/opex and mechanical/electrical losses.

  • Vendor, Utility, and Stakeholder Management

  • Oversee RFIs/RFPs and conduct technical evaluations for equipment standardization such as transformers, switchgear, UPS, generators, and cooling systems.

  • Collaborate with utility partners on interconnection and capacity planning, including islanding capabilities and microgrid controls where applicable.

  • Engage with cross-functional teams (design, construction, operations, supply chain, finance) to communicate trade-offs effectively to executive stakeholders.

What You'll Bring:

  • 12+ years of experience in data center or mission-critical facility design, with deep expertise in electrical and mechanical domains.

  • A proven track record of delivering large-scale projects from initial concept to operational status, including systems testing and commissioning.

  • In-depth expertise in HV/MV/LV distribution, substations, UPS/BESS integration, generators, and mechanical systems (air/liquid/adiabatic cooling).

  • Experience optimizing PUE/WUE, availability, and TCO across multiple sites or regions.

  • Proficiency in power system analysis, CFD/thermal modeling, BIM/Revit, and controls integration (BMS/SCADA/EMS).

  • A strong vendor/OEM network and experience in leading RFx, FAT/SAT, and negotiating technical specifications.

  • Exceptional communication and influence skills, with a knack for making data-driven decisions and presenting clear trade-off analyses.
