  • Communicate and enforce engineering policies, standards, practices, and design methodologies to ensure consistent execution across the organization.
  • Maintain expertise in emerging technologies, market trends, and industry best practices related to mission critical electrical infrastructure and data center design.
  • Provide engineering guidance and technical support for operations and infrastructure improvements within existing STACK facilities.
  • Develop and maintain technical specifications for owner furnished contractor installed (OFCI) electrical equipment and systems.
  • Assist in the development of new Basis of Design (BOD) standards and engineering solutions to support evolving business and customer requirements.
  • Lead and mentor internal engineering staff while fostering technical development and engineering excellence across the organization.
  • Drive alignment across Development, Construction, Operations, Procurement, and external partners to ensure successful project delivery.
  • Provide technical leadership across multiple concurrent projects and regional developments.
  • Drive long-term electrical infrastructure strategy focused on resiliency, scalability, maintainability, and operational efficiency.
  • Evaluate emerging technologies and electrical infrastructure solutions for applicability, scalability, resiliency, sustainability, and cost optimization.
  • Support capital planning, portfolio-wide engineering initiatives, and strategic technical decision-making.
  • Experienced in reviewing Harmonic, SCCAF, Reliability and Availability studies.
