Senior Data Center Facilities Engineer

About the role

Tracks and monitors ongoing Data Center critical infrastructure maintenance and repair for all service lines to pre-defined service level agreements (SLAs). Manages incidents that impact Data Center infrastructure services and the proactive and timely resolution of such incidents. Conducts site reviews and assessments to evaluate suitability for data center builds. Acts as the engineering representative on a wide range of moderately complex on-site scenarios related to mission critical systems, operations, and functionality. Provides engineering insight to ensure project or other design initiatives align with company expectations. Contributes to the identification of training programs for newer members of the team, acting as a subject matter expert with many standard systems and trains others on the team.

Responsibilities

• Critical Environment Maintenance Support: Tracks and monitors ongoing critical environment maintenance and repair for all service lines to pre-defined service level agreements (SLAs) to ensure service uptime is maintained to the highest standards and that faults are dealt with promptly.
• Employs practical operating knowledge of engineering systems to lead standard diagnostics and repairs, escalating blockers or obstacles when needed.
• Applies knowledge of Oracle processes, procedures, and industry standards to resolve routine issues.
• Offers suggestions for system-level enhancements to reduce potential problems.
• Evaluates the suitability of components, processes, or action plans.
• Incident Management and Operation Improvement: Manages incidents that impact data center infrastructure and the proactive and timely resolution of such incidents.
• Collaborates with design, construction, commissioning, facility engineering, and data center operations teams to integrate new engineering design systems to existing data center.
• Proactively drives operational optimization and efficiency improvement initiatives.
• Evaluates and ensures the safe working practices of others.
• Participates in post-incident reviews by supporting root cause analyses, documenting lessons learned, and facilitating the execution of Corrective and Preventive Action Plans (CAPAs) to mitigate recurrence and improve system resilience.
• Follows established emergency operations plans when responding to emergency incidents or abnormal events, stabilizing conditions and escalating critical issues as needed.
• Site Commissioning and Build: Participates in site reviews and assessments to evaluate suitability for data center builds, gathering and analyzing technical, environmental, and infrastructure data to inform decision-making.
• Prepares and/or reviews technical reports to document findings, support recommendations, and communicate results to stakeholders.
• Reviews mechanical simulations (e.g., computational fluid dynamics [CFD] analyses) to assess airflow and thermal performance, identifying and recommending necessary design adjustments to optimize system efficiency and reliability, escalating as needed.
• Data Center Operations Management: Supports and validates on-site data centers operations in relation to the engineering infrastructure.
• Acts as the engineering representative on a wide range of moderately complex on-site scenarios related to mission critical systems, operations, and functionality.
• Engages in communications to ensure that operational requirements and specifications are flagged, raised, and addressed by the appropriate team.
• Supports inclusivity by actively seeking and listening to diverse perspectives, ensuring others feel heard and respected.
• Engineering Design, Leadership, and Governance: Collaborates with senior team members and supports a project or other design and engineering initiatives.
• Provides engineering insight to ensure project or other design initiatives align with company expectations.
• Coordinates with internal and external project team members in delivering specific aspects of data centers for Oracle.
• Contributes to the development of policy documents by collaborating with team members.
• Contributes to the creation and upkeep of best-in-class policies and procedures, participating in their review as necessary.
• Prepares technical reports to document findings, communicate progress, and support project or design decision-making.
• Training and Knowledge Sharing: Contributes to the identification of training programs for newer members of the team.
• Acts as a subject matter expert with many standard systems and trains others on the team.
