Electrician
$30 - $70 per hourAerotek
This role combines hands-on low-voltage and medium-voltage construction work in industrial and data-center environments. You will install, terminate, and energize new electrical infrastructure from detailed drawings, focusing on build and commissioning activities rather than facilities maintenance or plant operations. The position is hourly with overtime and requires significant travel on a rotation schedule, including per diem support while on active construction sites.
Responsibilities- Install and terminate new low-voltage electrical infrastructure, including conduit, cable tray, underground duct bank, cable, wire, and 480 V building and feeder systems.
- Pull, land, torque, and energize new 415 V and/or 480 V equipment such as switchgear, busway, PDUs/UPS, main switchboards (MSBs), and grounding systems based on construction drawings and work packages.
- Support first energization of new 480 V systems by following established lockout/tagout and grounding procedures.
- Perform industrial and data-center construction or commissioning work, focusing on new builds rather than facilities, service, or plant operations.
- Install e-house medium-voltage switchgear (MVSG), generator step-up transformers (GSUs), 15 kV and 35 kV cables, and associated duct banks for campus medium-voltage systems.
- Support hipot and very low frequency (VLF) testing of medium-voltage systems and assist with commissioning activities.
- Work adjacent to live medium-voltage campus buses at 12.47 kV, 13.8 kV, and 34.5 kV while adhering to NFPA 70E, OSHA 1910.269, and lockout/tagout procedures.
- Read and interpret construction drawings, one-line diagrams, manuals, and work packages to plan and execute installation and termination work accurately.
- Use common electrical test equipment such as multimeters, meggers, and ammeters to verify installations and support commissioning.
- Perform physical construction tasks, including routing and securing conduit and tray, pulling and terminating cables, and completing high-quality terminations at both low and medium voltage.
- Follow safety standards and procedures, including NFPA 70E, lockout/tagout (LOTO), and medium-voltage switching and clearance practices.
- Travel with project teams to active construction sites, mobilize as new facilities come online, and relocate as work progresses across different locations.
- Work nights, weekends, and extended shifts as needed during peak construction and energization periods to meet project schedules.
- State journeyman electrician license.
- Minimum of 5+ years of industrial or data-center electrical construction experience installing conduit, cable tray, underground duct bank, cable, and 480 V terminations.
- Minimum of 5+ years of medium-voltage construction experience at 5 kV or above; 415 V and 480 V experience does not count toward medium-voltage requirements.
- Documented experience performing 15 kV and/or 35 kV terminations, supported by resume details or manufacturer terminator cards.
- Hands-on experience with 415 V and/or 480 V systems, including switchgear, busway, PDUs/UPS, main switchboards (MSBs), and grounding.
- Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, one-line diagrams, equipment manuals, and work packages.
- Proficiency with common electrical test tools such as multimeters, meggers, and ammeters.
- Working knowledge of NFPA 70E and lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures; familiarity with OSHA 1910.269 for medium-voltage switching and clearance.
- Demonstrated experience in industrial or data-center construction or commissioning environments, rather than facilities maintenance, service, or plant operations.
- Ability to perform hands-on installation work, including reading prints, making terminations, landing and torquing connections, and completing physical construction tasks.
- Ability to lift 50+ pounds, work at heights, work in confined spaces, and perform tasks outdoors in all weather conditions.
- Willingness to work in an hourly role with overtime, including nights, weekends, and extended shifts during construction and energization.
- Ability and willingness to travel 80% or more on a construction rotation schedule, with per diem and/or housing provided while on site.
- Comfort working in a traveling construction role that requires frequent mobilization to active data-center construction sites.
- Experience installing and commissioning medium-voltage systems at 12.47 kV, 13.8 kV, and 34.5 kV in campus or data-center environments.
- Experience installing e-house medium-voltage switchgear (MVSG), generator step-up transformers (GSUs), 15 kV and 35 kV cable, and associated duct banks.
- Experience supporting hipot and very low frequency (VLF) testing of medium-voltage systems.
- Exposure to work adjacent to live medium-voltage buses while maintaining strict adherence to safety protocols.
- Familiarity with medium-voltage switching, clearances, and OSHA 1910.269 requirements in addition to NFPA 70E and lockout/tagout.
- Comfort working in a role focused on construction and commissioning rather than facilities maintenance or operating-plant responsibilities.
- Openness to hourly compensation with overtime, rotational travel schedules, and per diem or housing arrangements while on assignment.
This opportunity offers a strong long-term incentive program, including a significant equity grant that vests over four years, rewarding your contribution to large-scale infrastructure growth. You benefit from an hourly structure with overtime potential, providing additional earning opportunities during busy construction and energization phases. The role offers consistent exposure to cutting-edge industrial and data-center projects, creating a clear path for professional growth in both low-voltage and medium-voltage disciplines. You will work within a culture that values safety, technical excellence, and hands-on craftsmanship, while supporting your development through complex, high-impact projects across multiple locations.
Work EnvironmentThe role is based primarily on active industrial and data-center construction sites, with one location noted in Southaven, MS, and frequent deployment to additional campuses as new projects begin. You will work in a field construction environment that involves installing conduit, cable tray, underground duct banks, low-voltage and medium-voltage equipment, and associated infrastructure. The position is hourly with overtime, and you should expect 80% or more travel on a rotation schedule, with per diem and/or housing provided while on site. Work often takes place outdoors and indoors in partially completed facilities, requiring you to operate in all weather conditions, at heights, and in confined spaces. You will regularly use construction hand and power tools, electrical test equipment such as multimeters, meggers, and ammeters, and work around energized systems at 415 V, 480 V, and medium-voltage levels up to 34.5 kV. The environment is safety-focused, emphasizing NFPA 70E, OSHA 1910.269, and lockout/tagout procedures, and may require night shifts, weekend work, and extended hours during critical construction and energization milestones. Dress typically aligns with standard construction-site expectations, including appropriate personal protective equipment suitable for electrical and medium-voltage work.
