Role Scope

Lead HV, MV, and overall electrical commissioning across all five commissioning phases on multiple concurrent data center sites.
Act as the owner's electrical commissioning authority for general contractors, designers, and vendors.
Own the testing and verification program: develop and review it, then drive execution across generators, switchgear, UPS, transformers, ATS/STS, PDUs, and EPMS until every system meets design intent.
Run on-site inspections, enforce safety, track progress, and resolve issues in the field.
Lead the final operational handover for electrical, signing off that systems are ready for service.

What We're Looking For

  • You've personally led HV/MV electrical commissioning on mission-critical data center projects through energization and owner acceptance.
  • You commission the full electrical stack hands-on: generators, paralleling switchgear, UPS, battery systems, switchgear, EPMS, ATS/STS, PDUs, grounding.
  • You diagnose and resolve startup failures in live environments, and you can assess and test at a high technical level without supervision.
  • You hold contractors and vendors to the testing standard and document rigorously enough that the records survive an audit.
  • Bonus: ASHRAE or BCxA commissioning guidelines. NETA test specifications. Controls and mechanical systems familiarity. Electrical engineering background.

Benefits

  • Competitive total compensation package (salary + equity).
  • Retirement or pension plan, in line with local norms.
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance.
  • Generous PTO policy, in line with local norms.

Salary Range

The salary range for this position is $200,000-$250,000 per year, depending on experience, skills, qualifications, and location.
