About the job:

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.

The Data Center Design Integration team is a multi disciplinary team of architects and Information and Communication Technology (ICT)/Telecommunications (Telecom) designers that work on next generation data center designs. We are a sub-team of the broader Data Center Technology and Systems (DCTS) organization.

As a Telecom Lead, you will be responsible for working with executive level engineers across all disciplines to develop integrated telecom communication designs at the product and top level assembly state of a data center. You will lead external consultants to develop coordinated construction level drawing packages for manufacturing and construction.

The AI and Infrastructure team is redefining what's possible. We empower Google customers with breakthrough capabilities and insights by delivering AI and Infrastructure at unparalleled scale, efficiency, reliability and velocity. Our customers include Googlers, Google Cloud customers, and billions of Google users worldwide. We're the driving team behind Google's groundbreaking innovations, empowering the development of our cutting-edge AI models, delivering unparalleled computing power to global services, and providing the essential platforms that enable developers to build the future. From software to hardware our teams are shaping the future of world-leading hyperscale computing, with key teams working on the development of our TPUs, Vertex AI for Google Cloud, Google Global Networking, Data Center operations, systems research, and much more.

Responsibilities:

• Work with internal telecom engineers and network designers to rationalize requirements into products, conceptual one lines and conceptual rack or tray layouts to enable adequate telecom infrastructure.
• Work with cross-functional disciplines across architecture, civil, mechanical, electrical, controls, security on product development, and assembly integration of telecom infrastructure.
• Participate in internal and external ICT/telecom product and data center design reviews across the following disciplines: Telecom, Security, Controls and Networking.
• Review construction level drawings produced by internal and external vendors that document ICT/telecom scope for program reference.
• Review and enable best practices for converged network allocations across all mechanical, electrical, and controls products.
• Act as an escalation path for site localization of canonical design where local requirements necessitate engineering judgement on adjustments to ICT/telecom design.
