Electrical/Mechanical Engineer – Mission-Critical Power & Cooling MEP

Electrical/Mechanical Engineer – Mission-Critical Power & Cooling MEP at 2NSystems. Location: Roanoke, VA (preferred) | Open to highly qualified remote candidates.

This role focuses on MEP systems for data center applications, shaping the lifecycle of mission-critical infrastructure from concept through commissioning. You will design and implement energy-efficient, scalable power and cooling solutions for high-availability environments. Responsibilities include producing detailed technical drawings, developing bills of materials (BOM), providing accurate job cost estimates, and collaborating with internal teams, external partners, and clients to ensure reliability and performance.

Key Responsibilities

• Design & Development:
  • Create detailed 2D/3D CAD and Revit models for power distribution, HVAC, precision cooling, and advanced UPS/critical power systems.
  • Select equipment and build comprehensive BOMs to meet data center specifications.
  • Perform load calculations, short-circuit studies, and energy-efficiency modeling.
• Project Execution:
  • Prepare accurate labor, equipment, and material cost estimates for proposals and bid packages.
  • Produce detailed construction documentation, technical specifications, and shop-drawing reviews.
  • Partner with project managers to track budgets, schedules, and milestones through commissioning.
• Technical Leadership:
  • Act as SME for UPS systems, generators, switchgear, chilled-water systems, and high-density power distribution.
  • Provide on-site guidance during installation and acceptance testing.
  • Mentor junior engineers and conduct peer reviews to elevate technical standards.
• Continuous Improvement:
  • Stay current with emerging technologies—modular power, liquid cooling, and high-efficiency MEP designs.
  • Maintain drawing libraries, SOPs, and commissioning checklists to standardize best practices.

Qualifications

• Education: Bachelor's degree in electrical or mechanical engineering (Master's a plus).
• Experience: 2+ years in mission-critical MEP design for data centers or similar infrastructure.
• Technical Skills:
  • Deep knowledge of UPS systems, critical power redundancy (2N, N+1), and precision cooling.
  • Proficiency in AutoCAD, Revit, and Bluebeam Revu.
  • Familiarity with NEC, ASHRAE TC 9.9, NFPA 70/75/70E, and Uptime Institute Tier standards.
• Preferred Credentials: Professional Engineer (PE) license strongly preferred; PMP or energy-modeling certifications a plus.
• Excellent analytical, communication, and cross-team collaboration skills.
