Commissioning Engineer — Southeast

Commissioning & Field Execution Location: Charlotte, NC (Field) Compensation discussed during final conversation. Why This Role Exists The Southeast data center corridor — Virginia through Georgia — has the highest concentration of active hyperscale construction. Commissioning delays on these projects carry real safety‑and‑risk exposure, and flying engineers across the region create gaps that compound punch lists. You will own L1–L5 commissioning on multi‑vendor protection systems, design‑through‑acceptance, regionally anchored where project density demands consistent presence. What You Own FAT/SAT/IST test procedures for protection relays, generator controllers, ATS, and SCADA systems Functional performance testing: protection scheme verification, trip coordination, interlock validation Staged commissioning planning: board‑by‑board or zone‑by‑zone cutover with deterministic rollback Transfer testing: open‑transition and closed‑transition sequences, retransfer with time delay Punch‑list management through closeout and owner acceptance Turnover packages: commissioning records, as‑built documentation, O&M manuals Systems You’ll Touch Vendor Platforms SEL Woodward Caterpillar Omicron Doble Software Tools AcSELerator QuickSet AcSELerator RTAC Standards

Test Phases Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) Site Acceptance Test (SAT) Secondary injection testing Functional performance testing Witness testing Staged commissioning / cutover Site Activities Automatic mode transitions ATS control (open/closed transition) What Success Looks Like First 90 Days Completed commissioning or witness testing on at least one Southeast data center project Developed FAT or SAT test procedures for a protection relay or controller scope Established working relationships with at least one prime contractor commissioning team in the region First 180 Days Leading commissioning execution on Southeast corridor projects — owning the full commissioning scope Independently conducting witness testing with owner representatives present Known contact for prime contractors in the Southeast region for P&C commissioning needs Required Background 5+ years commissioning experience on medium‑voltage critical power systems (data centers, substations, industrial) FAT/SAT procedure development and execution for protection relays and generator controllers Secondary injection testing with Omicron or Doble test sets Transfer testing experience: ATS open/closed transition, generator paralleling, load bank testing NFPA 70E compliance: arc‑flash PPE, approach boundaries, LOTO procedures on energized equipment Punch‑list management and turnover documentation experience Preferred Background NETA Level III or IV certification SEL relay commissioning (QuickSet, 751/700G families) Woodward generator controller commissioning (easYgen 3400, LS‑6) Experience working with AE/MEP/EPC prime contractors on data center projects Based in or willing to relocate to the Southeast (NC, VA, GA, TN, FL) What to Expect in the Field Travel 40–60% during commissioning phases. Regional focus — Southeast corridor (VA, NC, GA, TN, FL). Site Hours: early starts, occasional weekends. More predictable schedule with regional focus vs. nationwide travel. Customer‑Facing: direct interface with prime contractor commissioning leads and owner representatives. Regional relationships built over time. Documentation: heavy — test procedures, commissioning records, punch lists, turnover packages. Field Safety NFPA 70E compliance mandatory — arc‑flash PPE, approach boundaries, daily safety briefings Why Ziggurat Regional focus means you build relationships with the primes building in the Southeast, not just pass through projects Commission what we designed — relay settings, automation logic, and coordination curves come from the same team Your field feedback improves the next design — direct loop between site reality and the engineering office Growing into the densest hyperscale construction corridor in the country #J-18808-Ljbffr Ziggurat Automation Inc.
