You will collaborate closely with cross-functional engineering and infrastructure teams to ensure all designs meet rigorous technical specifications and operational requirements.
Key Responsibilities
Design & Modeling: Develop high-quality 2D technical drawings and complex 3D models using industry-standard CAD software (e.g., AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Inventor, CATIA) to support data center layouts and infrastructure components.
Assembly & Integration: Create detailed spatial and component assemblies to illustrate how various structural, mechanical, and hardware elements fit together within the data center environment.
Technical Documentation: Generate comprehensive engineering documentation, including precise dimensions, tolerances, and material specifications required for fabrication and deployment.
Simulation & Analysis: Utilize Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) tools (e.g., Ansys) to simulate, analyze, and validate designs for structural stress, thermal performance, and overall manufacturability.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with systems engineers, project managers, and facility teams to ensure all designs align with DevSecOps pipeline requirements and broader mission objectives.
Design Optimization: Continuous refinement of designs to maximize efficiency, reduce costs, and improve quality, minimizing the reliance on costly physical prototyping.

Technical Proficiency: Mastery of major CAD platforms (AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Inventor, or CATIA) and familiarity with CAE simulation tools for stress, thermal, and fluid dynamics analysis.
Engineering Fundamentals: Deep understanding of core engineering principles, material properties, and manufacturing/fabrication processes.
Standards & Compliance: Strong working knowledge of industry standards and regulatory frameworks (e.g., ISO, ASME).
Analytical Thinking: Exceptional problem-solving skills with a strong ability to visualize complex spatial arrangements and data center configurations.
Communication: Excellent collaborative and communication skills to effectively bridge the gap between abstract design and physical implementation.
