What You’Ll Do

: 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.

About The Role

: 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.

Additionally, you will collaborate daily with cross-functional construction and operations teams to ensure all designs are scalable, constructable, and seamlessly handed off for deployment. The Senior Manager, White Space Design owns the end-to-end design strategy, development, and administration of the White Space Basis of Design across CoreWeave’s global data center portfolio. On a day-to-day basis, you will perform deep-dive technical reviews of infrastructure layouts, high-density cooling configurations (such as remote CDUs and containment systems), power distribution strategies, and low-voltage pathways to proactively eliminate gaps in coordination and constructability.

You will act as a hands-on technical subject matter expert, balancing direct design production and engineering work with the management and mentorship of internal design engineers and external engineering consultants. Ultimately, you will drive daily cross-functional alignment with Construction, Operations, Network Engineering, and Commissioning teams to guarantee that all white space designs are scalable, operationally sound, and seamlessly transitioned from concept through construction handoff.

Who You Are

: Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical discipline, or equivalent practical experience. 15+ years of experience in data center design, mission-critical infrastructure engineering, or white space design leadership. Direct experience with data center white space infrastructure systems, including PDUs, RPPs, busways, branch circuits, hot aisle containment systems, remote CDUs, fan walls, and high-density cooling strategies.

Experience working as a consulting engineer, design consultant, or owner’s representative overseeing third-party design consultants. Documented knowledge of low voltage infrastructure systems, including structured cabling, ladder rack, cable tray systems, overhead conveyance, and network pathway coordination. Documentation Review: Experience reviewing and interpreting construction drawings, shop drawings, submittals, RFIs, and design change documentation.
