What you'll do
As the Project Facilitator, Capital Projects Engineer, you will be expected to manage capital improvement projects and the vendors that support each of the associated projects.

The service you provide will be to the underlying support systems (facilities, power, cooling, etc) for employee's and customer's so you will not be expected to do any computer maintenance-the customers do that for themselves.

To excel in this role you should have an understanding of data center construction etiquette, HVAC, electrical, F/A, large chillers, diesel generators, cooling towers, UPS systems, large batteries, and more. You may be in front of customers, so you'll also need to be able to present yourself well and have great communication skills.

• At least 5 years' experience managing projects, workflows, and understanding vendor/contractor management.
• Data Center knowledge and experience
• An associate's degree (AA/AS) or an equivalent combination of education and experience
• Experience with Procore project management and CMMS type software a plus but not required.
