Om jobbet
Data centres play a vital role in society, and the decisions made today will shape the digital and sustainable infrastructure of tomorrow. At COWI, we are intensifying our focus on data centres and strengthening our capabilities to support clients in delivering the next generation of digital infrastructure.
We are therefore looking for a Mechanical Lead to join us on this journey, becoming an integral part of our growing organisation and helping evolve our data centre environment through your expertise in complex projects.
Be part of building COWI’s data centre environment.
Data centres are a strategic growth area at COWI. As we scale our presence in this market, we are enhancing our multidisciplinary capabilities and working closely with clients to develop reliable, efficient and sustainable data centre solutions. In this role, you will engage closely with clients, colleagues and partners to develop and deliver data centre projects from early concept through design and implementation.
As Mechanical Lead, you will bring your expertise in mechanical systems into multidisciplinary teams, helping translate customer needs into robust and future-ready solutions. You will be part of a professional environment experiencing rapid growth and strong strategic focus within COWI, with opportunities to deepen your expertise, grow alongside the organisation, and play an active role in shaping our approach to data centre projects and customer collaboration.
Your key responsibilities will be to:
- Contribute to the design and delivery of data centre projects, ensuring high technical quality within your discipline.
- Engage in dialogue with customers to understand their needs and translate them into effective technical solutions.
- Lead and contribute to data centre projects, ensuring coordination across multidisciplinary teams.
- Support project development from early concept stages through design, tender and construction.
- Collaborate with colleagues across engineering, architecture, sustainability and environmental advisory.
Examples of discipline-specific responsibilities may include:
- Lead mechanical design and advisory for data centre facilities.
- Act as mechanical lead within projects, ensuring technical quality and coordination.
- Contribute to detailed technical dialogue with clients and project stakeholders.
- Support project development from concept to detailed design.
- Contribute to innovative and sustainable data centre solutions.
Your skills. Our team. Together we design the future.
The first step to success in this role is that you are eager to collaborate with the people around you, whether they are colleagues, partners or customers. Developing ties with others is something you do by acting respectfully and delivering on your promises. And you never get set in your ways but keep exploring new insights and ways to improve.
On top of that, you will have:
- A relevant educational background in engineering.
- Experience working with design of data centres, engineering consultancy, technical advisory or complex infrastructure projects.
- Experience from data centre projects or other large-scale mission critical projects.
- Professional proficiency in English.
Additional role-specific qualifications may include:
- Experience with mechanical systems for data centres.
- Experience working with large-scale infrastructure or industrial facilities.
- Experience leading technical teams or complex engineering projects.

We support our customers’ transition towards increased sustainability. We strive to lead by example by embedding environmental management, social responsibility and good governance into our business practices and the options we provide to our customers. We value differences and development and cultivate an environment of belonging and having fun. Because that is what brings out the best in you, at work and at home.

Before you apply
All you need to include in your application is your CV – no photo or application letter. At an interview, you can tell us everything we need to know about why you’re interested in joining COWI. As for the photo, we prefer to form our first impression in person rather than from a picture. We review applications and conduct interviews on an ongoing basis, so the role may close as soon as we find the right match.
Diversity is fundamental to COWI, inclusion is key
We are committed to creating a respectful and fair work environment where all employees have a sense of belonging and equitable opportunities to thrive and grow. We ensure that our leaders are role models for inclusive leadership by cultivating a culture where diverse perspectives and thoughts are seen as strengths. And we take diversity and inclusion into account in all relevant decisions and processes and when setting teams and fora. We do it because it is part of our values and because it is simply the right thing to do.
