- Evaluate electrical distribution systems and building system interconnectivity
- Troubleshoot system performance issues in real time
- Review design documentation and submittals
Client & Stakeholder Engagement
- Lead commissioning meetings and communicate findings
- Serve as a trusted partner to clients and contractors
Operational Contributions
- Complete field reports, documentation, and time management
- Support scheduling and revenue targets
Team Development
- Mentor junior engineers and support training initiatives
Core Qualifications
- Electrical Engineering degree or Qualified Electrician background
- 7+ years in electrical systems OR 3+ years commissioning
- Data center or mission-critical experience
Technical Capabilities
- Experience with electrical distribution, HVAC systems, controls, fire alarm, and automation
- Ability to read construction drawings and specifications

- Strong analytical and communication skills
- Ability to lead meetings and manage multiple priorities
Physical Requirements
- Ability to work in field environments, climb ladders, and lift ~30 lbs
Preferred
- EIT, CEM, LEED, OSHA 30, BIM experience
Travel Requirements
- Regular travel to project sites with potential for broader U.S. travel. Must be able to work on-site as required.
Why FST
- At FST, you are part of a team that values execution, accountability, and expertise. Strong performers are recognized, and engineers have opportunities to grow into leadership roles. Salary Range: $130,000 to $170,000 FST Technical does not offer employment-based visa sponsorship for this position.
