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).

Google is looking for a Controls or Systems Engineer with a mastery of Building Management Systems (BMS), Electrical Power Monitoring System (EPMS) and Industrial Control Systems (ICS) to execute and deliver the supply of third-party data center projects. As the primary on-site technical authority for automation, you will ensure that the "brains" of the facility the integration of mechanical, electrical, and cooling systems are installed and networked to perfection. You will serve as the Lead Technical Point of Contact (POC) for all BMS, EPMS, and PLC-related engineering questions during the construction phase, ensuring that the physical installation of sensors, controllers, and network architecture aligns with the logical design intent, enabling seamless system communication and operational visibility. Behind everything our users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and maintaining our data centers to building the next generation of Google platforms, we make Google's product portfolio possible.
