When You Join Verizon

You want more out of a career. A place to share your ideas freely — even if they're daring or different. Where the true you can learn, grow, and thrive. At Verizon, we power and empower how people live, work and play by connecting them to what brings them joy. We do what we love — driving innovation, creativity, and impact in the world.

Our V Team is a community of people who anticipate, lead, and believe that listening is where learning begins. In crisis and in celebration, we come together — lifting our communities and building trust in how we show up, everywhere & always. Want in? Join the #VTeamLife.

The Global Technical Facilities Planning group is responsible for leading the strategic planning, development, and enhancement of Verizon Technical sites in support of network growth across next-generation architectures. We accomplish this by partnering closely with Network Equipment owners, Standards, Implementation, and Technology teams to develop, assess, and optimize PSC capacity loads while integrating Artificial Intelligence, machine learning automation, and intelligent bot-driven workflows that dramatically accelerate decision-making and reduce manual effort across our nationwide portfolio.

As a Principal Engineer, you will be tasked with developing resolutions to complex problems that require the frequent use of creativity. Additionally, you will also be conducting analysis of situations or data requiring an in-depth evaluation of variable factors and exercising judgment in selecting methods, techniques and evaluation criteria for obtaining results.

• Providing mentoring to other team members on networking, application design, engineering and automation while acting as the final escalation point to support production service issues in concert with application, operational, and triage teams.
• Leading performance meetings with the vendor, planning and maintenance engineering and creating detailed project plans.
• Providing input on status calls with teams across several organizations.
• Finishing projects independently and meeting tight timelines without impacting critical services.
• Developing excellent working relationships with and working as a partner with other departments and vendors with the purpose developing best practices for engineering and operations.

• Develop, maintain, assess, and calculate PSC (Power, Space, and Cooling) capacity loads across a national portfolio of sites to promptly approve network gear installation.
• Leverage 1-, 3-, and 5-year Power, Space, and Cooling capacity and utilization forecasts to model future facility exhaust, informing build and decommission plans aligned to the network roadmaps
• Plan and design short- and long-term equipment layouts of technical facilities based on Verizon Standards; produce AutoCAD space-planning deliverables for internal customers.
• Manage DC power plants, generators, and HVAC systems; perform AC/DC electrical analysis including rectifiers, batteries, BDFBs/PDFs, and generator capacity calculations.
• Participate market reviews and/or site visits to monitor implementation progress and ensure PSC compliance.
• Identify, lead, and implement PSC solutions involving construction, modification, or decommissioning of equipment based on fiduciary and network priorities.
• Partner with Technical Facilities Engineer and Implementation team on capacity solutions including construction design, scope, vendor management, bidding, permitting, and capital budget requests.
• Maintain adequate build-ahead margins with close attention to technology transformation initiatives (e.g., iEN, OpenRAN, vRAN, edge compute).

AI Development, Automation & Bot Engineering

• Design, develop, and deploy AI-powered bots and automated agents that streamline PSC capacity workflows, data ingestion pipelines, and reporting cycles across UNIX-based environments.
• Build and fine-tune large language model (LLM) integrations (e.g., Claude, GPT-4, Gemini) using prompt engineering, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and function/tool-calling frameworks to automate analysis and generate leadership-ready…
