About the role
Senior telecom conveyance engineer responsible for designing and standardizing physical pathways and conveyance infrastructure for Meta's data center campuses, driving prefabrication, modular design, and cross-trade coordination across electrical, mechanical, civil, and structural teams.
Responsibilities
- Define and own technical strategy and design standards for outside plant (OSP) connectivity pathways including underground conduit systems, manholes, handholes, vaults, and inter-building fiber routes
- Lead the design and standardization of inside plant (ISP) connectivity pathways including overhead cable tray systems, vertical risers, floor/wall penetrations, and pathway routing to network equipment
- Architect integrated row conveyance solutions coordinating cable tray, electrical busway, and water distribution within a unified overhead delivery framework
- Assist with designing and standardizing multi-trade rack configurations for consolidated power, network, and cooling distribution
- Drive Meta's prefabrication strategy for pathway and conveyance assemblies with modular design packages and field installation standards
- Develop design-for-manufacturing principles enabling off-site prefabrication with predictable quality and interfaces
- Lead cross-functional coordination with electrical, mechanical, structural, civil, construction, and network engineering teams
- Establish pathway capacity planning frameworks accounting for growth and AI/GPU infrastructure
- Create design automation tools, templates, and parametric models for scalable pathway design
- Drive continuous improvement of pathway designs from feedback and evolving requirements
Qualifications
- Degree in electrical, mechanical, civil, or architectural engineering
- 12+ years of experience in data center or mission-critical facility design focusing on cable pathway, conveyance, or physical distribution infrastructure
- Experience designing and specifying cable tray systems (ladder, solid-bottom, wire mesh), conduit design, electrical busway, and overhead/under-floor distribution architectures
- Experience with outside plant design including underground duct banks, conduit routing, manhole/handhole design, and inter-building connectivity pathways
- Demonstrated expertise in structured cabling pathway standards (TIA-568, TIA-569, BICSI TDMM) and building/electrical codes (NEC, NFPA, IBC)
- Experience collaborating with civil, structural, and network engineering to integrate conveyance systems into large-scale programs
- Ability to resolve complex multi-trade coordination challenges and drive alignment across teams
