DeepSeek reveals intention to build its own computing infrastructure for the first time, announces recruitment of IDC engineers According to Beating monitoring, SemiAnalysis, an independent AI research institution, has issued a document stating that DeepSeek is shifting from a light asset computing power leasing model to a heavy asset self built infrastructure. The key evidence comes from its June 9th recruitment announcement for the position of "IDC Design and Planning Engineer", which is specifically responsible for the design and delivery of MW to GW level data center infrastructure. Combining with the recruitment of data center operation and maintenance engineers in Ulanqab, Inner Mongolia, China in April, DeepSeek has publicly disclosed its intention to build its own computing power for the first time. The recruitment position is located in Hangzhou and requires candidates to have engineering foundations in electrical, HVAC, and other fields. The core responsibilities include data center park planning, power and refrigeration system design, evaluation of new technologies such as liquid cooling and modularization, as well as collaborative delivery with design institutes and construction teams. The job output includes design specifications, technical standards, equipment selection, and capacity planning. This marks DeepSeek's shift from relying on external leasing to autonomously controlling large-scale computing infrastructure, laying the foundation for long-term computing power costs and reliability. ---------------------------------Click on the original link below to join the Beating · Feishu AI news channel, which continuously monitors global AI hotspots and news 24/7.
