You will work extensively with Professional Design Services and our construction supply chain to integrate low-Green House Gas materials and modifications during product localization and track the deployment of new low-carbon technologies. Significant effort will be dedicated to partnering with General Contractors and Material providers to identify and strategize on sustainable material deployment. You will also be involved in representing Google data center construction in industry collaborations to accelerate the adoption of low-carbon practices, share best practices, and assess supplier performance against sustainability targets.
