Data Center Electrical Engineer, Products, GDC, DCTS

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).

We are seeking talented engineers for the development and implementation of new electrical products and technologies.

In this role, you will be responsible for managing multiple electrical products, collaborating with various teams, and delivering innovative design to support the technical infrastructure.

Behind everything the users see online is the architecture built by the Technical Infrastructure team to keep it running. From developing and maintaining the data centers to building the next generation of Google platforms, we make Google's product portfolio possible. We are proud to be our engineers' engineers and love voiding warranties by taking things apart so we can rebuild them. We keep our networks up and running, ensuring our users have the best and fastest experience possible.

Individual pay is determined by factors including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
