- Support capacity planning and thermal management strategies to accommodate changing power and cooling demands.
- Select and size cooling equipment to meet performance, scalability, and efficiency objectives.
- Define operational strategies and system configurations to maximise energy and water efficiency.
- Perform engineering analyses, including airflow, thermal, hydraulic, and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) studies.
- Create standardised design frameworks to improve delivery efficiency and reduce project costs.
- Develop forward-looking cooling strategies that support future technology and workload requirements.
- Collaborate with internal and external stakeholders to deliver complex projects and achieve successful outcomes.
Qualifications & Experience
- Degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline.
- Professional engineering certification is advantageous.
- Extensive experience in data centre design, including senior engineering or management responsibilities.
- Strong background in thermal modelling, airflow analysis, heat load calculations, hydraulic calculations, and CFD simulations.
- Experience designing critical mechanical infrastructure and associated support systems.
- Knowledge of a broad range of cooling technologies, including evaporative cooling, heat exchange systems, chillers, liquid cooling, and emerging cooling methods.
- Experience with plant operations, control philosophies, and system sequencing.
- Familiarity with energy modelling and sustainable building practices.
- Experience supporting large-scale or hyperscale data centre environments.
- Proficiency with engineering design and drafting tools such as AutoCAD.
- Strong problem-solving, stakeholder management, and project delivery skills.
- Willingness to travel as required.
