Provides licensed electrical engineering oversight for permitted and new-construction work, with emphasis on power distribution, grounding and bonding, and coordination between ICT, electrical, and mechanical systems.
Key Responsibilities:
Review, develop, and, where required, stamp electrical drawings and calculations supporting the low-voltage / data hall scope for permitted work, new builds, expansions, and significant field revisions.
Define and validate redundant power topologies supporting the ICT environment, including N+1 and 2N concepts, feeder strategies, UPS, PDU, and busway interfaces and cabinet power coordination.
Design or verify telecom bonding and grounding infrastructure aligned to TIA-607 and project requirements, including TGB and TMGB concepts, bonding paths, and equipment grounding interfaces.
Coordinate with mechanical engineering and facilities teams on cooling load implications, cabinet densities, containment assumptions, and spatial constraints that affect the electrical and ICT design.
Support constructability reviews, RFIs, submittals, inspections, and field issue resolution for power, grounding, code compliance, and interface demarcation between trades.
Provide engineering input to commissioning, integrated systems testing, and turnover documentation where power and grounding performance affect low-voltage acceptance.
Advise project leadership on technical risk, permit impact, scope boundaries, and required engineering changes before field execution proceeds.
Required Skills and Knowledge:
A bachelor's degree in electrical engineering is required; a master's degree or mission-critical specialization is preferred.
Active Electrical PE license with experience supporting data centers, telecom, or other mission-critical facilities.
Strong knowledge of redundant power architectures, UPS, PDU, and busway distribution; selective coordination concepts; and the practical interface between electrical and ICT systems.
Deep understanding of telecom grounding and bonding infrastructure, including TIA-607 concepts and field implementation considerations for cabinets, ladder racks, and related support systems.
Ability to coordinate electrical design with mechanical, structural, and low-voltage disciplines to preserve constructability, maintainability, and code compliance.
Strong technical judgment, drawing review capability, and written communication for stamped documents, design clarifications, and field directives.
Certifications / Training:
Required: Active Licensed Professional Engineer (PE) credential in the relevant jurisdiction(s).
Preferred: Demonstrated mission-critical / data center experience and familiarity with NEC / NFPA requirements, commissioning processes, and client / AHJ review workflows
Mandatory Skills
Licensed Electrical PE/Data Center Power Distribution/N+1 & 2N Redundant Architectures/UPS, PDU Busway Systems/Telecom Grounding/Electrical Design Stamping/Commissioning Integrated Systems Testing/Infrastructure Design
