Plumbing & Fire Fighting Design Engineer

Description

• Ensure designs comply with local, national, and international building codes and safety standards, including NFPA, IPC, and data center-specific standards (e.g., Uptime Institute’s Tier Classification).
• Develop detailed drawings and layouts using CAD/BIM software, ensuring system functionality, efficiency, and compliance with safety standards.
• Design plumbing and fire fighting systems, including water supply, drainage, fire suppression (e.g., FM-200, Inergen), fire alarms, and sprinklers for data center facilities.
• Perform hydraulic calculations, water flow analysis, and sizing of pumps, pipes, fire suppression systems, and related components to ensure proper operation within data center environments.
• Collaborate with the MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) team and other engineering disciplines to ensure seamless integration of plumbing and fire protection systems into the overall data center design

Requirements

• Strong knowledge of fire suppression systems (FM-200, Inergen, CO2, water mist), fire alarms, sprinklers, and other life safety systems.
• Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
• Proficiency in design software such as AutoCAD, Revit (BIM), and other relevant tools for system design and modeling.
• Expertise in hydraulic calculations and system sizing (e.g., pumps, fire risers, water treatment systems).
• Relevant certifications in fire protection, plumbing, and MEP design (e.g., NFPA, ASPE, NICET).
• Relevant certifications in plumbing, fire protection, or MEP design are a plus (e.g., NFPA, ASPE).
• Experience with BIM and advanced design tools for MEP systems.
• 8+ years experience in designing plumbing and fire protection systems, with at least 2-3 years of experience in data center projects.
• Strong expertise in the design of plumbing and fire protection systems for large-scale facilities, especially data centers
