Perform ductwork modifications, brazing, soldering, evacuation and charging of various refrigerants, water piping, insulation modifications, and repairs as required to restore or improve cooling capacity.
Read and interpret one-lines, schematics, piping and instrumentation diagrams, sequences of operation, and manufacturer literature for assembly, repair, and reassembly as required.
Monitor building management systems (BMS) and electrical power monitoring systems; respond to alarms; and present information on equipment maintenance statuses for all critical data center facilities as required for internal and external customers.
Identify, stage, and maintain spare parts inventory for critical assets to minimize downtime.
Coordinate and support scheduled system shutdowns, isolation, lockout/tagout, and restoration; support commissioning by witnessing equipment startup, assisting with functional testing, and monitoring construction or upgrade progress through turnover.
