Lead data center engineer Vacatures

Over de vacature

You are responsible for the site. For the technology, the planning, the safety and for what the client experiences.

As Lead Data Center Engineer you carry responsibility for a complete data center site, or for a defined part of one: full power infrastructure in Tier 4 data centers, from preparation and engineering through installation to handover. You build the planning and the phasing, spread the teams across the work and hold progress against what was agreed. HSE is not a side issue here, you set how the work is done safely and, as work responsible person and installation responsible person, you put that on paper. Towards the client you are adviser and point of contact: you think along on choices, align with the manufacturer that commissions the systems, and keep the process on site running as tightly as possible. No management layer above you, but a direct line to the leadership and influence on how First Case sets up its work technically.

The essentials: Salary €4.900 to €5.900 per month · 38 hours per week · Fulltime · Based in Wateringen.

• You are the work responsible person (WV) and installation responsible person (IV) under NEN 3140
• Proven experience in project leadership, planning and client advice at senior level
• You can lead technical teams and are the face of First Case to the biggest clients
• You own HSE on site: safe working, work plan and toolbox talks, and you hold people to it
• You plan and organise the work: phasing, staffing, materials and progress
• English at working level

• The most complex projects in the European data center market
• Full technical responsibility
• Option for Uptime Institute certification
