About the position

NVIDIA is seeking a motivated Datacenter Operations Engineer to join our IPP (Infrastructure, Planning, and Process) Datacenters team. In this pivotal role, you will be responsible for leading datacenter and lab buildouts, overseeing DC Engineering, and managing related planning activities. Your primary focus will be to develop a comprehensive schedule and execution plan, driving the execution through various Project Implementation Coordinators (PICs). This role will also involve optimizing the efficiency of our datacenter environment by influencing bin packing based on collated data, ensuring that deployments occur within defined Service Level Agreements (SLAs). Your responsibilities will include handling datacenter buildouts and retrofits, which encompasses reviewing requirement gathering, evaluating site selection criteria, conducting financial analyses, and securing internal approvals. You will provide recommendations regarding datacenter and lab layouts, analyze network Bill of Materials (BOM), and establish construction specifications. Additionally, you will maintain the internal Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) tool to reflect new installations and changes. Addressing customer concerns related to datacenter floor issues, such as racks, site conditions, power, cooling, and floor accidents, will also be part of your duties. You will be tasked with developing standards, best practices, and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for our datacenters. Assisting in the rollout of new datacenter management products and driving audits, such as Energy Audits (ISO50001), while supporting Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) initiatives in SOPs will be essential. Collaboration with product and hardware teams to define new systems product specifications and roadmap planning will be a key aspect of your role.
