Location: Multiple Sites — US (Remote/Hybrid eligible) Travel : 50% travel to our data center sites Role Overview The Data Center Facility Telemetry & Controls Management Engineer is a critical technical role responsible for the design, deployment, integration, and ongoing operation of Building Management Systems (BMS), Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) platforms, and facility telemetry pipelines across Lambda's growing data center portfolio. This engineer ensures that all facility systems — power, cooling, thermal, and environmental — are continuously monitored, alarmed, and controllable in real time, supporting the safe and efficient operation of high-density GPU deployments at rack densities of 136–380 kW per rack. What You’ll Do BMS / Controls Architecture & Integration Architect and manage BMS integration across colocation and Lambda-owned facilities, covering chillers, CRAHs, CDUs (Coolant Distribution Units), cooling towers, UPS systems, PDUs, and automatic transfer switches. Define standards for BMS point lists, naming conventions, control sequences, and integration protocols (BACnet, Modbus, SNMP, OPC-UA, RESTful APIs). Oversee commissioning and acceptance testing of new BMS deployments and CDU/TCS loop integrations for next-generation liquid-cooled GPU rack systems. Collaborate with colocation partners (Equinix, Digital Realty, and others) to ensure telemetry data flows from provider BMS/EPMS into Lambda's monitoring stack.
