Job Title:

Design & Application Engineer – Diesel Generator Set (Data Center Projects)

Role Summary

The Design & Application Engineer will be part of Global Proposal Engineering team and will be responsible for the design, customization, integration of diesel generator sets for large-scale data center backup power systems. The role covers the project cycle—from technical proposal stage to project execution documentation support—ensuring designs meet Tier III/Tier IV data center uptime standards, regulatory compliance, and client-specification and tender requirements.

Key Responsibilities

1. Design & Engineering

• Select and configure diesel engines, alternators, control panels, and switchgear to meet site-specific project requirements.
• Design cooling, ventilation system, electrical systems, exhaust, fuel, and acoustic systems for high reliability and low environmental impact.
• Proficient in Noise, ventilation and structural calculations.
• Develop detailed 2D/3D CAD Product Designs and generator set installation layouts, wiring diagrams, and mechanical schematics for genset, site installation and integration.
• Evaluate site-specific conditions (climate, altitude, space, seismic zone) for optimal genset application.
• Implement noise, vibration, and emissions control solutions in compliance with local rules of site of Installation.
• Understanding of requirements as per local norms.
• Knowledge of electro-mechanical protection systems.

2. Tender & Documentation

• Review and interpret tender technical specifications to prepare compliant technical submissions.
• Prepare Bill of Quantity (BoQ) for genset supply, accessories, control systems, and installation materials.
• Ensure all proposed equipment meets client specifications and international standards.
• Support proposal teams with technical clarifications during tender stages.

3. Compliance & Standards

• Ensure design compliance with:
• Local Emission norms in the country of installation
• NFPA 110 (Emergency and Standby Power Systems)
• ISO 8528 (Reciprocating internal combustion engine-driven alternating current generating sets)
• BS 5514 / ISO 3046 (Engine performance standards)
• IEC 60034 (Rotating electrical machines)
• IEEE 446 (Emergency and Standby Power)
• Uptime Institute Tier Standards
• Maintain knowledge of global genset standards for multi-country project delivery.

Key Skills & Competencies

• Proficiency in BoQ development and tender technical specification analysis.
• In-depth understanding of diesel engine performance, alternator selection, and controls.
• Knowledge of global genset-related standards and compliance frameworks.
• Skilled in AutoCAD/Creo or equivalent for mechanical/electrical design.
• Familiarity with data center MEP systems, redundancy topologies, and UPS integration.
• Strong analytical and documentation skills.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Power Engineering
• 5–10 years of experience in diesel genset design/application engineering.
