About the role

The Electrical Installation Lead – Power Distribution & Infrastructure drives the successful installation of electrical power systems for automation and material handling equipment across multiple greenfield and brownfield fulfillment center sites. This role provides field-based electrical installation leadership focused specifically on heavy wire pulls, power distribution infrastructure, conduit and raceway systems, control panel placement, and high-voltage terminations in complex industrial environments.

Responsibilities

  • Lead and manage electrical installation crews focused on power distribution infrastructure for MHE systems across North American facilities
  • Oversee conduit and raceway installation from Main Distribution Panels (MDPs) to sub-panels, disconnects, and equipment locations
  • Manage heavy wire pulling operations through conduit including 480V 3-phase power feeders, ensuring proper cable sizing, labeling, and termination
  • Direct control panel placement and mounting at designated locations per engineering drawings, ensuring proper clearance and accessibility
  • Oversee installation of cable tray systems, junction boxes, pull boxes, and wireways
  • Manage installation of disconnects, motor starters, overloads, and related power distribution components
  • Manage grounding system installation and bonding connections per NEC requirements
  • Ensure proper wire terminations with correct torque values, lugging, and labeling at all connection points
  • Oversee cable management including wire bundling, cable supports, strain relief, and routing compliance
  • Review and interpret electrical drawings including one-line diagrams, panel schedules, conduit schedules, cable schedules, and electrical installation details
  • Verify field installation matches engineering drawings and identify conflicts requiring resolution
  • Partner with engineering teams to clarify drawings, resolve field conflicts, and validate installation intent
  • Maintain accurate field documentation including redlines, punch lists, installation status reports, and turnover documentation
  • Coordinate with mechanical installation teams on shared routing paths, penetrations, and structural supports
  • Ensure all electrical power distribution work is completed in accordance with NEC/NFPA codes, project specifications, and Amazon standards
  • Perform and oversee quality inspections on conduit installations, wire pulls, terminations, panel connections, and grounding systems
  • Verify conduit fill ratios, bend radius compliance, and proper support spacing per code requirements
  • Manage electrical punch list identification and repair for all power infrastructure scope
  • Drive achievement of safety, timeline, cost, and quality metrics across assigned zones
  • Ensure lockout/tagout compliance and electrical safety practices during all installation activities
  • Coordinate electrical infrastructure installation with mechanical teams, controls engineering, construction, vendors, and operations stakeholders
  • Manage zone handoff sequencing with the Low Voltage Devices & Controls lead — power infrastructure must be complete before device installation begins
  • Track electrical installation progress, risks, blockers, and quality issues, escalating when support is needed
  • Participate in project-level technical reviews, installation readiness reviews, and punch walks
  • Manage relationships with electrical contractors, OEMs, vendors, and internal project stakeholders
  • Support development and continuous improvement of electrical installation standards, field checklists, and scalable deployment processes
