About the role

Galaxy Digital, a global leader in digital assets and data center infrastructure, is hiring a Data Center Controls Network Engineer in Dallas, TX. The role sits within the Pre-Construction team and acts as the owner's technical voice on OT networking, from site acquisition through GMP handoff to construction. It starts at the Helios campus in Texas and then moves to subsequent sites, working with pre-construction, design and engineering, construction and operations groups, and with design firms, integrators and suppliers. The position is hybrid with periodic travel.

Key responsibilities

• Turn tenant, power and cooling requirements into a written OT network position that design firms and the general contractor can build from.
• Create standards, typical details and repeatable design packages so each new campus starts from what worked before.
• Write technical scopes and support RFQ and RFP cycles for controls integrators, equipment suppliers, design consultants and commissioning agents, and recommend awards.
• Review design milestones for topology, IP and VLAN planning, segmentation, redundancy and monitoring coverage, and drive comments to closure before drawings are issued.
• Work with electrical, mechanical, IT and security leads and project managers so the controls network matches power, cooling and tenant needs.
• Lock specifications, lead times and delivery sequence for network and controls hardware with procurement and logistics teams.
• Agree on the OT/IT boundary, vendor and tenant remote access and firewall rules with IT and security.
• Build acceptance criteria and test requirements into scopes and commissioning plans, and vet submittals, firmware and baseline configurations against Galaxy standards.
• Document operational procedures such as change control, configuration backups, firmware management, monitoring and rollback, and give technical input to budgets, GMP pricing and schedules.
• Deliver the design basis, open items and lessons learned to construction and commissioning teams.

Required profile

• Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, network engineering or a related technical field.
• 7+ years designing, delivering and supporting OT or industrial networks where downtime is not acceptable (data centers, utilities, manufacturing, etc.).
• Experience reading drawings and specifications, reviewing design submissions and writing technical scopes, ideally from the owner's or designer's side of a large capital project.
• Exposure to commissioning and acceptance testing, and comfort working with incomplete information.
• Based in or near Dallas, TX, with a hybrid schedule and periodic travel.

Required skills

• Segmented network design, including VLAN and VRF strategy, access control and redundant paths.
• Building management, electrical power monitoring and SCADA architectures, including time synchronization and telemetry.
• Firewalls, VPNs and secure remote access in OT environments.
• Bonus: professional networking or security credentials such as CCNP, PCNSE, GICSP or ISA/IEC 62443; experience with RFQ/RFP development and GMP delivery models.
