Tesla is set to design and construct a pioneering data center in Austin, a project that is the first of its kind for the company, it says.

That’s according to the description for a job posting seeking a Senior Engineering Program Manager for Data Centers. This vital role, as described in Tesla’s recent job listing, will lead the project from its conception to its final stages (via Electrek).

“This role will lead the end-to-end design and engineering of Tesla’s 1st of its kind Data Centers and will be a key member of the factory engineering team,” reads the job description.

With responsibilities encompassing the complete design and engineering spectrum, the chosen candidate will navigate the complex realms of layout designs and infrastructure system selections, ensuring they align seamlessly with Tesla’s foundational principles.

The candidate will orchestrate technical workshops, cementing cooperation with both internal and external stakeholders. They will also spearhead the establishment of both internal and external design teams, manage consultant contracts, and ensure that all design deliverables meet the highest standards of quality.

This ambitious project isn’t just about construction. It underscores Tesla’s commitment to innovation, with the Senior EPM expected to devise advanced engineering strategies to further the company’s objectives.

Applicants for this role should have a B.S. in fields ranging from architecture to various engineering disciplines. Additionally, proven experience in the design and management of data centers or similar critical facilities is a must. A comprehensive grasp of all engineering disciplines and pre-construction project management will stand candidates in good stead.
