Your role

We are hiring a Chief Engineer, the role will give you the opportunity to expand your skills and experience working on mission critical infrastructure facilities operations for the largest wholesale data center provider in the world.

We offer a clean, stable environment where there is a lot of variety and always something to do, and where you'll work at least 40 hours per week.

As a Chief Engineer, you'll work with your reports and peers to ensure coverage 365 days per year, 7 days per week, 24 hours per day.

You'll spend most of your days walking the facility and inspecting infrastructure systems, performing routine maintenance, supervising the facility, assessing needs, monitoring construction projects, and completing repairs as needed.

You will also help to gather information and take readings to fill in the parameters on daily spreadsheets.

The service you provide will be to the underlying support systems (power, cooling, etc) for customers' computers, so you will not be expected to do any computer maintenance—the customers do that for themselves.

• Performing preventive maintenance on all building equipment.
• Assembling and commissioning Data Center equipment.
• Preparing Change Management Forms and Methods of Procedure (MOPs).
• Scheduling maintenance procedures with vendors.
• Ensuring compliance with all safety procedures and use of protective equipment.
• Responding quickly to emergency situations (fire, evacuation, equipment failure etc.) and customer concerns as needed.

Job Requirements:

• An Associate's degree (AA/AS) or an equivalent combination of education and experience; data center experience is strongly preferred.
• A trade license or certification acquired through technical education/training.
• Experience working with mission critical data equipment, and the willingness to work in a fast-paced, mission critical environment.
• Strong HVAC, mechanical, and electrical skills and experience.
• An understanding of computer systems, and skill with Microsoft Office products.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills.
• The ability to follow instructions and processes precisely and carefully.
• The ability to walk around a good deal of the time to perform inspections, to do some work outdoors in the weather if needed, and to lift heavy objects.
