The Data Center team designs and operates some of the most sophisticated electrical engineering, mechanical engineering and HVAC systems in the world. Facilities Technicians at Google data centers operate, monitor and support physical facilities conditions. Some of these duties will include heating and cooling of air and water, power supply, generators, UPS systems, electrical distribution and control and monitoring systems. You regularly help inspect, maintain and repair various data center systems such as piping and non-critical electrical or mechanical system components). You provide daily assistance to senior technicians as you read blueprints/schematics, conduct tours of systems and assess their working order.
As an advocate for best practices, you develop creative approaches to reducing operational costs while improving overall data center efficiency. You ensure that environmental and safety standards are consistently met, identifying problems and making repairs quickly. In emergency situations or abnormal conditions, you manage data center performance issues and outages to minimize the recovery time from failures.
As a Technician, you will ensure 24/7 reliability of our physical infrastructure. Moving beyond general maintenance, your primary focus is the 'nervous system' of the data center: managing the Programmable Logic Controller (PLCs), Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) interfaces, and critical alarm logic that control our power and cooling. You will provide high-level technical support by interpreting ladder logic and sequence of operations, troubleshooting control anomalies, and leading the commissioning and integration of new controls equipment. In this role, you ensure the facility’s logic systems operate with the same precision as the physical hardware.
The Data Center team designs and operates some of the most sophisticated electrical and HVAC systems in the world. We are an upbeat, creative, team-oriented group of engineers committed to building and operating powerful data centers.
