Staffing - Facilities Engineer III

SCOPE/PURPOSE OF POSITION:Reporting to the Operations lead of Global Compute platforms, the MultiCloud Administrator is a technology leader that will be responsible for end-to-end facilities for on-site computer rooms at manufacturing locations, with a primary focus on:IT electrical load planning (kW/rack, amperage, phases, A/B feeds, redundancy paths)UPS and battery backup strategy (runtime targets, capacity management, maintenance/test plans)Rack elevations and layout design (power/thermal/weight validation, growth planning, cable paths)Overall computer room design (power distribution, environmental requirements, physical/security controls, and facilities readiness)ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:Power Requirements & Electrical Design (IT Load Planning)Own IT power demand planning for manufacturing computer rooms: establish current and future rack power budgets, peak load assumptions, and growth buffers.Produce/maintain documentation of power source paths, redundancy assumptions, and room feeding approach (e.g., dual feeds, generator transfer) consistent with site DR and readiness documentation practicesCoordinate with plant electrical/facilities teams on electrical capacity, panel space, circuits, breakers, and phased expansions.UPS / Battery Backup Engineering & Runtime TargetsDefine UPS strategy (central room UPS vs. rack UPS) and ensure capacity supports business uptime needs.Manage UPS lifecycle: sizing, runtime targets, monitoring, inspection cadence, testing, vendor maintenance coordination, and replacement planning.Support sites where UPS utilization is already a risk: e.g., communications on maintaining a “stop-gap” utilization threshold and planning larger capacity upgradesPerform troubleshooting and improvement planning for UPS/battery systems aligned with critical facilities operating practicesRack Elevations, Physical Layout, and Capacity ModelingCreate and maintain rack elevations and “as-built” room layouts to support safe installation, maintenance access, and growth.Ensure racks are designed and positioned to support safe servicing, cable length constraints, and practical workflows as part of overall computer room layout best practices.Maintain CAD-style documentation and keep drawings current as the environment evolvesSite Readiness, Modernization Support, and Constraint RemovalPartner with IT infrastructure modernization programs (e.g., dual-room resiliency to identify and eliminate physical constraints like insufficient UPS power, rack space limits, and lack of dual connections.Drive remediation plans in coordination with facilities teams while minimizing production impactOperational Excellence: Risk, Change, and Incident SupportServe as the facilities escalation point for computer room power events, and participate in root cause analysis and remediation planning for electrical failures.
