What You'll Do

• Monitor, operate, and maintain critical electrical and cooling infrastructure supporting AI and high-density data center environments.
• Investigate and troubleshoot electrical, thermal, cooling, power quality, flow, pressure, temperature, and infrastructure alarms to minimize service disruptions.
• Perform preventive and corrective maintenance activities on assigned electrical and mechanical systems in accordance with operational procedures.
• Support incident response activities, root cause analysis (RCA), and recovery efforts during critical facility events.
• Monitor capacity utilization, system performance, redundancy, and failover readiness across electrical and cooling environments.
• Execute and support SOPs, MOPs, EOPs, change management activities, and facility maintenance programs.
• Coordinate with L1 technicians, facilities partners, OEM vendors, and engineering teams to ensure timely resolution of infrastructure issues.
• Maintain a safe operating environment by following electrical safety, permit-to-work, lockout/tagout (LOTO), and operational compliance requirements.
