About the role

Role Scope

  • Lead end-to-end deployment and commissioning of electrical power systems across concurrent sites, from pre-deployment readiness through energization, acceptance testing, and live handover.
  • Own operational reliability of electrical infrastructure across the live fleet, leading root cause analysis on power events and implementing corrective actions that cut repeat incidents.
  • Build and maintain electrical commissioning standards, acceptance test procedures, and runbooks covering MV distribution, UPS, switchgear, and rack-level delivery.
  • Serve as the on-site technical authority through switchgear energization, transformer commissioning, generator load testing, and UPS validation, resolving field failures before they delay handover.
  • Set and enforce electrical reliability standards across the portfolio: protective relay coordination, redundancy validation, failover testing, and arc flash compliance.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
  • Owned field deployment and commissioning of electrical systems on data centers or mission-critical facilities.
  • Energized and commissioned MV distribution, UPS systems, switchgear, and standby generation on live or commissioning-phase infrastructure.
  • Built electrical commissioning standards, acceptance test procedures, and reliability runbooks that hold up at a portfolio level.
  • Led root cause analysis and corrective actions on power availability events under time pressure.
  • Mentored electrical engineers in the field and built their ability to commission independently.
  • Ability to travel to deployment and operations sites up to 50 percent of the time.

Nice-to-Haves

  • Professional Engineer (PE) license.
  • Experience building or leading an electrical commissioning or power reliability program across multiple concurrent sites.
  • Proficiency in SKM or ETAP for power system analysis, arc flash studies, and protective relay coordination.
  • Familiarity with CMMS platforms, EPMS/DCIM power monitoring, and predictive maintenance tools.
  • Knowledge of NFPA 70E, NFPA 110, IEEE 3006, and Uptime Institute reliability standards.
