Senior Staff Quality Control Engineer

What You’ll Be Working On

• Serve as a senior technical QC leader across large-scale, mission-critical data center construction projects.
• Define and improve program-level quality engineering standards, inspection methods, and acceptance criteria.
• Work across multiple tenant quality programs and reconcile differing spec and flow-down requirements.
• Develop, refine, and govern Inspection Test Plans, checklists, inspection workflows, and quality documentation standards across civil, structural, electrical, mechanical, controls, and commissioning-related scopes.
• Ensure critical MEP systems — including electrical distribution, mechanical/cooling systems, controls, and related infrastructure — are installed in accordance with design intent, specifications, submittals, code requirements, and performance expectations.
• Partner closely with Construction, Design, Commissioning, Operations, GCs, subcontractors, OEMs, AHJs, and third-party inspectors to drive consistent quality outcomes.
• Provide senior-level technical review of drawings, specifications, submittals, RFIs, field changes, and construction execution plans from a quality and constructability perspective.
• Lead root cause analysis for recurring defects, non-conformances, rework drivers, and system-level quality failures.
• Establish defect taxonomies, trend reporting, and quality metrics that provide visibility into systemic risk and performance across scopes or projects.
• Drive pre-functional and functional readiness standards in partnership with commissioning teams.
• Provide technical quality sign-off recommendations for systems prior to commissioning, energization, turnover, and operational handoff.
• Review and validate non-conformance reports, corrective action plans, punch lists, inspection results, test reports, as-builts, redlines, O&M manuals, and turnover packages.
• Identify quality risks early and influence corrective action before issues impact schedule, commissioning, cost, or reliability.
• Translate field lessons learned into scalable standards, playbooks, and repeatable quality practices.
• Mentor QC Engineers, QC Managers, construction teams, and trade partners on technical quality standards and inspection discipline.
• Support audit readiness and maintain high-quality documentation and reporting standards across assigned projects or campus scopes.

What Success Looks Like

• Critical MEP systems are installed correctly and ready for first-pass commissioning success.
• Repeat defects, rework, and preventable quality issues are reduced through stronger standards and early detection.
• Construction, commissioning, and design teams operate from a shared, technically rigorous quality framework.
• Quality metrics and field data are trusted, visible, and used to drive decisions.
• Turnover documentation is complete, accurate, and audit-ready.
• Lessons learned are translated into improved standards across projects, scopes, and trade partners.
• Crusoe’s quality posture improves schedule confidence, system reliability, and long-term operational performance.

Who You Are

• 10+ years of experience in construction QA/QC, quality engineering, field engineering, commissioning support, or related technical construction roles.
• Deep technical understanding of MEP systems in mission-critical, industrial, or large-scale infrastructure environments.
• Strong experience with electrical distribution, mechanical/cooling systems, controls, system integration, and construction-to-commissioning handoff.
• Proven ability to develop or improve ITPs, inspection plans, quality standards, checklists, NCR processes, punch management, and turnover documentation practices.
• Strong ability to read and interpret drawings, specifications, technical submittals, test reports, commissioning documents, and code requirements.
• Experience using defect tracking, trend analysis, root cause methodology, and corrective action frameworks to improve quality outcomes.
• Comfortable influencing GCs, subcontractors, engineering teams, commissioning teams, and internal stakeholders without relying on direct authority.
• Strong field presence with the ability to identify installation risks, technical issues, and quality gaps before they become downstream failures.
• Systems thinker who understands how construction quality impacts commissioning, operations, uptime, and long-term asset performance.
• Highly organized, analytical, and detail-oriented, with strong documentation and communication skills.

Nice to Have

• Data center or hyperscale experience with companies such as AWS, Meta, Google, Microsoft, or similar.
• Experience in complex large-scale construction environments such as healthcare, semiconductor, refinery, central plants, power, or industrial infrastructure.
• Experience working closely with commissioning teams on pre-functional, functional, and integrated systems testing.
• Familiarity with Procore, BIM360, Autodesk Build, Bluebeam, commissioning platforms, or similar construction/quality tools.
• Relevant certifications such as CQM, CQI, PMP, Lean Six Sigma, ASQ, or similar.
• Experience creating quality standards, inspection libraries, lessons-learned programs, or quality playbooks at scale.

Additional Expectations

• Willingness to be on-site full-time.
• Ability to travel to other Crusoe construction sites as needed.
• Ability to hold contractors and internal stakeholders accountable to quality standards, including escalation when necessary.
• Commitment to maintaining high standards in safety, quality, documentation, and execution excellence.
