We are seeking an experienced Data Centre Design Engineer to join a major IT Services provider in a lead, design-assurance role supporting large-scale European data centre programmes.

Review and approve data centre designs (new build and expansion)

Act as lead technical engineer / design authority

Develop high-level delivery and implementation plans

Provide technical governance throughout the project lifecycle

Oversee implementation and resolve design or delivery risks

Engage with internal teams, vendors, and customer stakeholders

Support design sign-off and senior technical discussions

Required Experience

Strong experience delivering large-scale data centre deployments

Proven data centre design background (compute, storage, network, power, cooling)

Experience operating as a lead engineer or technical authority

Able to translate designs into practical delivery plans

Comfortable overseeing delivery rather than day-to-day build

Willing to travel across Europe (approx. 50%)

Desirable

Exposure to AI / HPC data centre environments (e.g. GPU-dense, NVIDIA platforms)

Experience with high-density, high-power DC designs

Background working for an IT services provider or systems integrator
