About this role
Preferred Experience:
• Experience with large-scale colocation, hyperscale, or enterprise data center environments. • Knowledge of energy-efficient electrical system design and renewable integration (e.g., battery storage, solar). • Background in electrical system monitoring, SCADA, and Building Management Systems (BMS). • Prior experience in design-build or integrated project delivery (IPD) environments.
Key Responsibilities:
• Design and oversee the implementation of electrical systems for new builds and retrofit projects, including MV/LV power distribution, UPS systems, backup generators, switchgear, PDUs, and busways. • Develop and review detailed electrical engineering drawings, one-line diagrams, load calculations, and technical specifications. • Perform site assessments and capacity planning for power distribution and redundancy. • Ensure electrical systems meet Tier requirements (e.g., Uptime Institute), NEC, IEEE, NFPA, and local code standards. • Support and coordinate commissioning activities, including Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT), Site Acceptance Testing (SAT), and Integrated Systems Testing (IST). • Collaborate closely with mechanical, architectural, and controls teams for integrated system design. • Analyse electrical system performance and recommend improvements for energy efficiency and operational reliability. • Manage electrical design consultants and contractors to ensure compliance with design intent and project timelines. • Lead or contribute to root cause analysis and remediation of electrical incidents or outages. • Mentor junior engineers and provide technical leadership within the engineering team.
Qualifications:
• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering (Master’s preferred). • PE (Professional Engineer) license is strongly preferred. • 7 years of relevant experience in mechanical engineering with at least 3 years in data center or mission-critical environments. • Deep understanding of power distribution, grounding, harmonics, power quality, and fault coordination. • Proficient in AutoCAD, Revit, and electrical calculation tools. • Experience working with electrical infrastructure for Tier II–IV data centers. • Familiarity with IEEE, NFPA 70 (NEC), ASHRAE, and Uptime Institute standards. Strong verbal and written communication skills with the ability to lead technical discussions.
