Cerified Facilities Engineer Level 4 @T5 Data Centers

San Antonio, TX, US

Here is a summary of what we encounter on the job every day.Critical Facilities Technicians go by many different titles, depending on the organization, and maintain the data center’s infrastructure on a more granular level. We maintain everything from the main switchgear, generators, and chillers to lighting panels, motors, and variable-air volume terminals. Along with maintaining equipment throughout the facility, Critical Facilities Technicians also have administrative duties such as creating work orders, maintaining Lockout/Tagout Record, and conducting a Job Hazard Analysis to name a few. Operations within a Data Center are detail-oriented. In a dynamic critical environment, the responsibilities of a Critical Facilities Technician can change from shift to shift or at any time. During a shift, Critical Facilities Technicians conduct routine facility rounds to ensure all equipment is operating properly and within specifications. They also oversee the Building Monitoring System (BMS) and the Electric Plant Monitoring System (EPMS) to ensure all systems are operating normally and wary of any alarms that may occur; always prepared to quickly respond to any issues and escalate as applicable. In addition, technicians must complete maintenance items during shifts, or escort contractors so that they can complete their tasks throughout the facility.
