  • Own critical lessons learned and field service bulletins that have design ramifications, so that they can be carried back into specs and templating.
  • Support all levels 1-5 of commissioning activities in partnership with Crusoe’s Cx team, reviewing commissioning documents for technical accuracy and assurance of design intent met.
  • Be an electrical safety champion in partnership with Crusoe’s construction partners.
What You'll Bring to the Team
  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, or equivalent.
  • 5+ years of experience in mission‑critical environments supporting construction and/or operations.
  • Deep practical understanding of electrical power distribution equipment assembly and installation.
  • Hands‑on experience with on‑site construction and partnering with third‑party general contractors and electrical subcontractors.
  • Strong project management skills to assist in monitoring schedules, spotting bottlenecks, and driving on‑time completion in a technical position.
  • Ability to troubleshoot complex field installation issues and implement practical, code‑compliant solutions on the fly.
  • Flexibility to travel frequently or reside near assigned project site – minimum 50% of time on site.
Bonus Points
  • Professional Engineer (PE) License or EIT certification.
  • Direct experience overseeing the installation of high‑density racks and their accompanying electrical infrastructure.
  • Mega Project construction experience in mission critical or heavy industry.
  • Certifications such as PMP, OSHA 30, or equivalent safety credentials.
