About The Position

To support delivering AI and Infrastructure at an unparalleled scale, efficiency, reliability and velocity, the Data Center Control Engineering team takes the control/networking design of our data centers into the future. Our team mirrors a research and product development department where designs/strategies are incubated, developed and produced for construction.

As a Control Systems Networking Engineer, you will take on complex Operational Technology (OT) networking and infrastructure challenges to develop new technologies, and optimize processes to further increase our networking posture and networking infrastructure across products. You act as a technical leader in the design and strategy of our global data center infrastructure. You will leverage your deep expertise to define the future of our complex, facilities. You are a recognized domain expert in facility control and networking systems and have a track record of influencing cross-functional teams and driving long-term technical roadmaps.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Engineering, Computer Science, a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 3 years of experience leading the technical design and implementation of OT infrastructure and networking.
• Experience in industrial control system architecture as it pertains to network segmentation, standard protocols (e.g., BACnet, Modbus, OPC, IEC 61850), and system administration.
• Experience in industrial control system hardware (e.g., PLCs, relays, IEDs, IO modules) and their integration with networking layers.

Nice To Haves

• Master’s degree in Engineering or Networking.
• 5 years of experience working with facilities (e.g., data centers, power plants, or manufacturing).
• Experience leading OT networking maturation and improvement initiatives (e.g., secure by design principles, and segmentation strategies).
• Experience with OT networking design and integration.
• Ability to generate technical product specifications/requirements, conceptual schematics, and system architecture drawings to drive control networking system projects.

Responsibilities

• Develop scope, requirements for networking initiatives to drive the design, implementation, testing of secure, resilient (OT) security solutions. Perform design document development, implementation and lab and on-site testing of networking solutions.
• Perform technical review of new control system infrastructure initiatives, embedding networking requirements into the lifecycle from initial design, testing to deployment.
• Serve as a technical liaison and collaborate between cross-functional teams to resolve complex design, integration, and deployment challenges in environments.
• Perform sustaining and life cycling activities during pre and post deployment, and operations for networking solutions and OT infrastructure components (e.g., SCADA/servers, clients, software).
• Identify opportunities for continuous improvement and maturation of the OT environment to drive risk reduction.
