<div class="content-intro"><p><strong>About Nebius:</strong></p> <p>Nebius is leading a new era in cloud infrastructure for the global AI economy. We are building a full-stack AI cloud platform that supports developers and enterprises from data and model training through to production deployment, without the cost and complexity of building large in-house AI/ML infrastructure.</p> <p>Built by engineers, for engineers. From large-scale GPU orchestration to inference optimization, we own the hard problems across compute, storage, networking and applied AI.</p> <p>Listed on Nasdaq (NBIS) and headquartered in Amsterdam, we have a global footprint with R&D hubs across Europe, the UK, North America and Israel. Our team of 1,500+ includes hundreds of engineers with deep expertise across hardware, software and AI R&D.</p></div><p><strong><span data-contrast="none">The Role</span></strong><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":0,"335559740":240}"> </span></p> <p><span data-contrast="none">The <strong>Data Center Design Lead</strong> will partner with internal infrastructure, hardware, and operations teams, as well as external consultants, engineers, and construction firms, to deliver designs that support rapid deployment and long-term operational excellence.</span></p> <p><span data-contrast="none">This role leads internal electrical and mechanical engineers, oversees third-party design partners, and ensures all designs meet Nebius standards, local regulations, and operational requirements. </span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":true,"134233118":true,"201341983":0,"335559740":240}"> </span></p> <p><span data-contrast="none">You will be responsible for both hands-on design oversight and technical leadership, serving as the final authority on data center design decisions.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":true,"134233118":true,"201341983":0,"335559740":240}"> </span></p> <p><span data-contrast="none">Location: Remote, US</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":true,"134233118":true,"201341983":0,"335559740":240}"> </span></p> <p><strong><span data-contrast="none">Responsibilities:</span></strong><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":true,"134233118":true,"201341983":0,"335559740":240}"> </span></p> <p>Design Leadership<br> • Own the end-to-end design process for new data center builds and expansions.<br> • Translate business, hardware, and workload requirements into facility design specifications (power, cooling, network, and floor space).<br> • Ensure designs optimize density, reliability, and efficiency while supporting rapid scalability.<br> • Coordinate with mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) engineers and consultants to deliver detailed designs.</p> <p><br>Power & Cooling Strategy<br> • Define requirements for high-density rack power, redundancy and UPS configurations.<br> • Lead cooling design trade-offs (air, liquid, immersion) to meet GPU cluster needs.<br> • Evaluate and integrate renewable energy and sustainability initiatives.</p> <p>Network & Infrastructure Integration<br> • Work closely with network and hardware teams to ensure physical layout supports cabling, interconnects, and future expansion.<br> • Plan for modular design that enables incremental GPU cluster growth.</p> <p><br>Compliance & Standards<br> • Ensure all designs comply with international and regional standards (e.g., Uptime Institute Tier guidelines, local building codes).<br> • Incorporate safety, fire suppression, and physical security measures.<br> • Define documentation and as-built standards for ongoing operations.</p> <p><br>Cross-Functional Collaboration<br> • Coordinate with construction project managers and external contractors during build phases.<br> • Provide design oversight during commissioning and handover to operations.</p> <p><br>Continuous Improvement<br> • Evaluate emerging GPU data center technologies and integrate innovative solutions.<br> • Develop playbooks and design templates for repeatable, fast deployments.<br> • Benchmark efficiency (PUE, WUE) and reliability across sites to drive improvement.</p> <p><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":0,"335559740":240}"> </span></p> <p><strong><span data-contrast="none">Requirements:</span></strong><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":true,"134233118":true,"201341983":0,"335559740":240}"> </span></p> <ul> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="3" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"multilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1"><strong><span data-contrast="none">12+ years</span></strong><span data-contrast="none"> of experience designing </span><strong><span data-contrast="none">data centers</span></strong><span data-contrast="none">.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":true,"134233118":true,"201341983":0,"335559740":240}"> </span></li> </ul> <ul> <li data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="3" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"4
