You will be welcomed into a rapidly growing business and team and empowered to make an impact. You will be valued, cared for, and challenged on your path to becoming a world-class professional consultant and surrounded by leaders who are committed to creating an environment that enables you to realize your own success and fulfillment.

When you join Design Group as a Data Center Automation Engineer, you are joining a team that will challenge you and position you for growth. Design Group is widely known as an industry leader, recognized as a top system integrator, ranking #9 in the 2025 System Integrator Giants; as a Rockwell Platinum Integrator, the highest designation given to Rockwell partners; and as an Ignition Enterprise Premier Integrator. As a part of this team, you will learn from industry leading experts and may even have the chance to be an active participant in industry events like the Ignition Build-A-Thon which Design Group won in 2023!

As a Data Center Automation Engineer, you will play a pivotal role within Design Group's Control System Integration Practice. You'll collaborate with experienced engineers, power systems specialists, and subject matter experts to deliver innovative, high-reliability automation and monitoring solutions tailored for mission-critical data center environments. In this role, you'll contribute to the technical direction and standards for Building Automation Systems (BAS), Electrical Power Monitoring Systems (EPMS), and integrated control architectures—driving operational excellence, scalability, and energy efficiency across client portfolios.

What You'll Do

You'll work individually and in teams to support capital projects and implement solutions for our clients. Together, you will help our clients make critical changes to improve their performance and realize their most important goals.

  • Engineer, design, and program Data Center Building Automation Systems (BAS, BMS) and Electrical Power Monitoring Systems (EPMS), with expertise in platforms such as Rockwell Studio 5000, Inductive Automation Ignition, Siemens or Schneider, and industry standards like BACnet and Modbus.
  • Execute the full lifecycle of complex BAS and EPMS projects—from requirements gathering and system architecture through implementation, commissioning, and client turnover.
  • Use industry knowledge and trends to guide teams on BAS and EPMS designs and standards for a diverse set of clients and projects.
  • Contribute to the development of enterprise-wide standards and best practices for building automation and power monitoring, focusing on scalability, cybersecurity, redundancy, and operational efficiency in data center applications.
  • Serve as a partner to clients, translating technical needs into engineered solutions, communicating effectively with stakeholders, and building long-term relationships through the consistent delivery of high-value results.
  • Champion innovation in BAS / EPMS technologies, continuously evaluating emerging tools, protocols, and strategies to improve system resilience, energy efficiency, and fault diagnostics.
  • What You'll Bring

  • Minimum of 5 years of progressive engineering experience in building automation, electrical power monitoring systems (EPMS), and integrated controls within mission-critical environments—especially data centers.
  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Mechatronics, Control Systems Engineering or similar.
  • Expertise in BAS and EPMS platforms and PLC, such as Rockwell Studio 5000, Inductive Automation Ignition, Siemens or Schneider, and industry standards like BACnet and Modbus.
  • Experience with field instrumentation, industrial networking, system integration, Panel Design and SCADA architectures used for environmental and electrical system monitoring.
  • Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to interface effectively with both technical teams and executive-level clients, translating technical requirements into strategic solutions.
  • Analytical mindset with advanced troubleshooting abilities, capable of resolving complex operational challenges and delivering innovative, reliable, and secure solutions.
  • Flexibility and willingness to travel for project execution, FAT / SFAT, and commissioning activities.
  • Knowledge of datacenter / mission critical commissioning requirements L1-L5.
  • Experience with datacenter and mission critical greenfield construction.
  • Interest in emerging control system technology and willingness to learn and contribute in a team environment.
  • Proficient in using revision / version control systems (e.g., Git, SVN) to manage automation code, drawings, and configuration files. Skilled in tracking changes, maintaining version history, and supporting collaborative development environments.
  • Project management experience is a plus.
  • SCADA design and network engineering experience is a plus.
  • Our culture and commitment to our people is what sets us apart. We foster an environment of mutual respect, integrity, and unconditional interest in the individual and collective success of our professionals. Our model and entrepreneurial mindset offer a rewarding, challenging, and highly flexible path.
