• Witness and support Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT), Site Acceptance Testing (SAT), pre-functional inspections, energization activities, functional performance testing, and Integrated Systems Testing (IST).
• Verify electrical installations including cable routing, terminations, torque verification, insulation resistance testing, grounding continuity, labeling, and asset tagging.
• Validate breaker settings, protective relay coordination, alarms, interlocks, failover sequences, control logic, and system integration prior to turnover.
• Support electrical startup, energization planning, switching activities, load bank testing, and system restoration while maintaining strict adherence to safety requirements.
• Identify, document, and drive resolution of commissioning deficiencies, punch list items, and non-conformance reports (NCRs) through final closeout.
• Verify corrective actions and conduct re-inspections to ensure compliance with project quality requirements.
• Maintain commissioning documentation including inspection reports, test records, issue logs, turnover packages, and final commissioning reports.
• Utilize commissioning management platforms and document control systems to monitor system readiness, testing progress, and KPI performance.
• Ensure compliance with project specifications, NFPA, NEC, NFPA 70E, IEEE, NETA, owner standards, and applicable Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) requirements.
• Lead commissioning coordination meetings and provide regular updates on system readiness, commissioning progress, quality metrics, risks, and schedule impacts.
• Support owner acceptance, turnover documentation, and training activities for facility operations teams.
• Mentor commissioning engineers and technicians while promoting commissioning best practices and continuous improvement.
• Promote and enforce a strong safety culture, ensuring compliance with LOTO procedures, energized electrical work practices, and site EH&S requirements.
• Any other duties or responsibilities that may be assigned to you in your role.

Skills Required:

• Strong knowledge of electrical commissioning processes within mission-critical, semiconductor, pharmaceutical, or industrial facilities.
• Experience commissioning medium- and low-voltage electrical distribution systems including switchgear, UPS systems, generators, transformers, MCCs, PDUs, RPPs, and protective relays.
• Strong understanding of QA/QC principles, inspection processes, and electrical construction quality standards.
