Senior Mechanical Engineer - Data Center

Olsson

Company Description

We are Olsson. We engineer and design solutions that improve the world around us. As a company, we promise to always be responsive, transparent, and focused on results – for our people, our clients, and our company.

We’re a people-centric firm, so it’s no surprise our greatest asset is our people. The impact this creates is an environment that encourages our people to grow and be creative with their talents. This approach builds a culture that is uniquely Olsson. It allows us to grow our people as we grow our business. This, in turn, creates a lasting impact on the world around us.

Job Description

As a Senior Mechanical Engineer, you will partner directly with some of the world’s largest technology companies and mission-critical clients to deliver complex, high-impact projects. In this role, you won’t just contribute to the work—you’ll help lead it.

You will serve as a mechanical engineer on projects, taking ownership of design efforts, performing detailed calculations, developing technical reports, and preparing construction documents that bring systems to life. You will also play a key role in leading project efforts, coordinating across disciplines, and helping ensure projects are delivered on time and at a high level of quality.

Experience in the Data Center industry is preferred, especially in environments where reliability and precision are critical. Alongside your technical contributions, you’ll help mentor and support junior engineers and team members, sharing your expertise and strengthening overall team performance. You’ll collaborate closely with other Olsson teams, professional and technical staff, and clients—playing a key role in delivering solutions that support large-scale, high-demand infrastructure.

Qualifications

You are passionate about:

  • Working collaboratively with others.
  • Having ownership in the work you do.
  • Using your talents to positively affect communities.

You bring to the team:

  • Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively with clients and teams
  • Project management or project leadership experience (preferred)
  • Ability to contribute as both a self-starter and a team player
  • Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering
  • Revit experience required
  • 15+ years of mechanical engineering experience
  • Licensed Professional Engineer (PE)

Additional Information

Olsson specializes in engineering and design, client advisory services, planning, field services, and environmental. Improving the world has been our mindset from the very beginning, back when Olsson first opened for business in 1956. And it will be our mindset for years to come.

As an Olsson employee, you will:

  • Receive a competitive 401(k) match
  • Be empowered to build your career with tailored development paths
  • Have the possibility for flexible work arrangements
  • Engage in work that has a positive impact on communities
  • Participate in a wellness program promoting balanced lifestyles

In addition, full-time employees will receive our traditional benefits package (health care, vision, dental, paid time off, etc.) and the opportunity to participate in a bonus system that rewards performance.
