Our thirst for technology is a part of everything we do. The Data Center Engineering team takes the physical design of our data centers into the future. Our lab mirrors a research and development department -- cutting‑edge strategies are born, tested and tested again. Along with a team of great minds, you take on complex topics like how we use power or how to run state‑of‑the‑art, environmentally‑friendly facilities.

You're a visionary who optimizes for efficiencies and never stops seeking improvements -- even small changes that can make a huge impact. You generate ideas, communicate recommendations to senior‑level executives and drive implementation alongside facilities technicians.

With your technical expertise, you ensure compliance with codes and standards, develop infrastructure improvements and serve as an expert in your specialty (e.g., cooling, electrical).

As a Data Center Services Electrical Engineer, you will play a crucial role in the field‑level implementation and operational support of Google’s rapidly expanding data centers. You will be responsible for overseeing the design, construction, and commissioning of Electrical distribution systems, ensuring projects are delivered safely, swiftly, and with high quality. You will manage site‑level electrical engineering issues, ensuring compliance with design standards and local regulations, supporting quality assurance, and providing technical guidance to vendor teams.

You will be a strong communicator and collaborator who grows on construction sites and has experience with mechanical systems, ideally within mission‑critical facilities, heavy industrial, oil and gas, or semiconductor industries.
