Design Delivery Manager - Data Centres

 

The Opportunity

This is an opportunity to play a pivotal role in the design and delivery of some of Australia’s most advanced, high-performance data centre infrastructure.

As Design Manager – Engineering Design, you will lead the engineering and technical design of Macquarie Data Centres’ (MDC) data centre projects, delivering innovative, scalable, resilient and compliant solutions for hyperscale and high-density colocation customers.

Reporting to the GM Engineering & Design, you will own the design outcome across the full project lifecycle — from feasibility and due diligence, through concept and detailed design, to issued-for-construction documentation, construction support, commissioning and handover.

You’ll lead and coordinate multidisciplinary internal teams and external engineering consultants, ensuring complex designs are integrated, buildable, commercially sound and delivered to the highest technical standards.

A key focus of the role will be driving Advanced Engineering, Safety in Design, buildability, prefabrication and modularisation, while developing standardised design approaches, optimising long-lead and free-issue equipment, embedding lessons learned and driving sustainability, reliability and commercial value.

This is a role for an experienced design leader who enjoys operating at the intersection of engineering, construction, commercial delivery and customer requirements — and who wants to have a genuine influence on how next-generation data centres are designed and delivered.
