JOB DESCRIPTION

The Mechanical Validation Engineer will validate mechanical infrastructure readiness for data center deployments, expansions, and operational handoffs.

  • Verify readiness of critical cooling infrastructure, including chillers, pumps, cooling towers, CRAH/CRAC units, air handlers, heat exchangers, valves, piping, containment, and airflow management systems.
  • Validate that BMS/controls visibility, alarms, trends, setpoints, and equipment status indicators support mechanical operations and troubleshooting needs.
  • Track mechanical validation findings, readiness risks, dependencies, corrective actions, exceptions, and owner-based action plans using approved deployment tracking tools.

REQUIRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE

  • 5+ years of experience in mechanical validation, commissioning, facilities engineering, data center operations, construction support, critical facilities, HVAC operations, or mission-critical infrastructure delivery
  • Experience validating mechanical systems in data centers, industrial facilities, colocation environments, utilities, manufacturing, healthcare, aviation, or other high-availability environments.
