If you are passionate about the Customer Experience, think and act with a global perspective and have the ability to contribute to sophisticated innovations in the area of building controls and automation initiatives, this is the challenge you are looking for!

Controls Design Engineering (CDE)
The CDE team provides Building Management System (BMS) and Electrical Power Monitoring System (EPMS) design coordination globally. Our goal is to deliver consistent standards for data center controls system as well as overall mechanical/electrical engineering practices. Due to the critical nature and complexity of designing, installing, and maintaining a BMS/EPMS, the CDE team is the primary owner of the associated specification, points list, and scope documents within a large infrastructure engineering team.

The CDE team is a single point of contact for multiple internal and external customers, uniting the efforts associated with new construction projects, legacy site enhancement projects, and Incorporating new data center designs and products into our documented standards portfolio.

In a continual effort to enhance our control systems, the CDE team collaborates through design review, drives consistency, and collects feedback to arrive at unified documented solutions. These revision controlled documents drive the project scope for each data center build and have generated significant reductions in change order expense, scope gaps between contractors, construction schedule delays, single-sourced vendor pricing, and reduced vendor project management and engineering labor costs.

Key job responsibilities
Have deep knowledge of building operations, mechanical plant strategies, BMS/EPMS programming concepts, control diagrams, industrial HVAC, electrical line-ups, one line diagrams, and complex environmental and electrical concepts.

Data center redundancy, mechanical failure strategies, energy and water conservation best-case practices and data reporting analytics.

Knowledge of how to successfully operate in high security critical environments while maximizing productivity.

Lead and facilitate collaboration with multiple teams including construction, programmers, MEP/CSA engineering disciplines, and team managers as necessary to accomplish initiatives.

Create, maintain, and disseminate specification documents that pertain to global projects.

Create project specific scope of work (SOW) documents including global design standards.

Vendor selection, bid review, RFI support and coordination.

Central POC for multiple internal and external groups regarding BMS/EPMS controls standards.

Interaction with AWS cloud services and other applications in order to present, archive and analyze accumulated data.

Expect to travel globally when needed to manage and/or support project initiatives.
