This role is critical to delivering fully operational, high-availability facilities on schedule and to the highest quality standard.

Deep mechanical expertise in the commissioning of chillers, dry coolers, fan coil units, pumps, cooling towers, and HVAC systems in redundant, live-environment data center facilities
Hands-on working knowledge of electrical and controls systems — including switchgear, UPS, generators, BMS, and EPMS — sufficient to lead integrated MEP commissioning activities and cross-discipline coordination
Prior experience on the owner's rep or client side, providing a distinct ability to anticipate owner expectations, interpret acceptance criteria, and align field execution with client priorities
