About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

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

What you’ll need

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or 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
Open to travel to deployment and operations sites up to 50 percent of the time
Bonus: 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
