Senior Data Center Commissioning Engineer

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering (or related field), or equivalent hands-on commissioning experience.
• 8+ years of commissioning experience on mission-critical facilities, including at least 5 years on data center projects and hands-on leadership of Level 4 and Level 5 commissioning (functional performance testing and IST).
• Deep, hands-on commissioning expertise in either electrical systems (MV/LV switchgear, UPS, BESS, transfer schemes, generators, protective relaying) or mechanical and controls systems (chillers, air handling, liquid cooling and CDUs, BMS/EPMS sequences), with strong working knowledge of the other.
• Working knowledge of commissioning standards and codes (ASHRAE Guideline 0 and Standard 202, NETA ATS, NFPA 70/70E, NFPA 72) and Uptime Institute methodologies.
• Experience writing commissioning plans, test scripts, and turnover documentation, not only executing them.
• Comfort operating with a high degree of autonomy. You'll be defining the playbook, not inheriting one.
• Willingness and ability to travel approximately 40–50% to project sites, factory/integrator facilities, and vendor locations.

• Commissioning certification such as CxA (ACG), BCxP (ASHRAE), CCP (BCA), or CBCP (AEE); a Professional Engineer (PE) license is a plus.
• Prior commissioning experience with modular, prefabricated, or containerized data centers, including factory acceptance testing at integrator facilities.
• Experience commissioning high-density, liquid-cooled AI/GPU deployments (direct-to-chip, CDUs, technology cooling systems), including flushing, filtration, and fluid quality programs.
• Experience with battery energy storage (BESS), GPU power stabilization, load step and ramp-rate testing, and utility interconnection requirements (e.g., ERCOT).
• Experience on the hyperscale owner, colocation, or commissioning agent side, leading IST on large-scale (10 MW+) facilities.
• Experience with commissioning management platforms (CxAlloy, CxPlanner, Facility Grid, or equivalent), Procore or Autodesk Construction Cloud, and test equipment (load banks, power quality analyzers, thermal imaging).
• Experience standing up commissioning standards, templates, or governance processes for a growing team or product portfolio, rather than only executing against existing ones.
• NFPA 70E qualified person training and OSHA 30.

• A go-getter with a growth mindset. You're intellectually curious, have strong business acumen, and actively seek opportunities to build relevant skills and knowledge 
• A detail-oriented problem-solver. You can independently gather information, solve problems efficiently, and deliver results with a "get-it-done" attitude 
• Thrive in a fast-paced environment. You're energized by an entrepreneurial spirit, capable of working quickly, and excited to contribute to a growing company
• A collaborative team player. You focus on business success and are motivated by team accomplishment vs personal agenda 
• Highly organized and results-driven. Strong prioritization skills and a dedicated work ethic are essential for you
