Job description

  • The Data Center Design team is the technical engineering team responsible for the architectural and infrastructure design standards across CoreWeave’s global portfolio, ensuring facilities are highly scalable, efficient, and optimized to support next-generation, high-density compute workloads
  • The team governs the entire design lifecycle from early-stage site feasibility through final technology fit-out, establishing the foundation for seamless construction and long-term operational success
  • Through continuous technical innovation and standardization, they enable CoreWeave to rapidly and reliably scale its physical footprint to meet global infrastructure demands
  • The Senior Manager, White Space Design leads the design of white space infrastructure and fit-out across CoreWeave’s expanding data center portfolio
  • In this role, you will own the development and administration of the White Space Basis of Design while performing comprehensive technical reviews of infrastructure layouts, power distribution, and cooling configurations
  • You will act as both a hands-on technical expert and a manager of internal and external design resources, including third-party consultants
