Senior Civil Design Engineer (Data Centers)
Jacobs
This job opportunity is available at ANY location in the United States. Ideally, selected candidates will be near a JACOBS U.S. based office, but we intend to hire the "best" candidates.
At Jacobs, we don't settle - always looking beyond to raise the bar and deliver with excellence. We apply our expertise and knowledge as we look into the future with great optimism and focus. We don't settle until we give our best and know that we're making a difference.
Please Note: This position is intended for site/civil engineers with direct experience delivering AI, Hyperscale, Colocation data centers, semiconductor facilities, advanced manufacturing campuses, or large-scale comparable mission-critical industrial projects. Experience limited to residential development, commercial site development, municipal infrastructure, transportation, retail, education, government, or other conventional land development projects will generally not be considered equivalent to the mission-critical infrastructure experience required for this role. Preference will be given to candidates with demonstrated experience supporting large-scale utility-intensive developments where reliability, redundancy, resiliency, and long-term campus expansion planning are critical project drivers.

Required Background: Successful candidates will possess direct experience managing the planning, design, engineering, construction, commissioning, or expansion of AI, Hyperscale, or Colocation data center facilities. Candidates with experience supporting other mission-critical environments, such as semiconductor fabrication facilities, advanced manufacturing, pharmaceutical, or heavy industrial projects with complex electrical and mechanical infrastructure, may also be considered. Experience limited to transportation, commercial, light industrial, government, institutional, or conventional building projects may not provide the specialized expertise required for this role. Preference will be given to candidates with demonstrated success delivering AI, Hyperscale, or Colocation data center projects.
