Electrical Manager Jobs in Mississippi (NOW HIRING)

As a member of the SpaceXAI construction team in Memphis, you will design, build, and activate some of the world's most technically advanced electrical infrastructure — from high-voltage substations through medium-voltage distribution to low-voltage data center power systems and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). We execute complex electrical construction projects and infrastructure improvements from cradle to grave. You will operate with autonomy to solve diverse and complex power-system problems, excel at managing multiple projects at a time, and work in a dynamic, fast-paced environment. You will work with other construction engineers, electrical contractors, equipment vendors, utilities, architects, and internal customers to deliver reliable, high-capacity electrical systems that support AI-scale compute. All SpaceX construction engineers serve additionally as project managers and supers — this is a construction management role per industry standards. The position is based in Memphis, TN.

This role is focused on delivering the electrical backbone — from the high-voltage substation down to the low-voltage racks and BESS — that will power SpaceXAI's Memphis operations.

• Oversee and own the full lifecycle of electrical construction projects (high-voltage substations, transformers, switchgear, BESS, data-center power distribution, UPS, generators, and low-voltage systems) with on-time and under-budget delivery
• Manage all aspects of multi-discipline electrical construction projects in the field and office; act as overall construction project manager and extreme owner
• Perform project control tasks including electrical project scheduling, cost control, and commissioning coordination
• Interact with electrical contractors, fabricators, OEMs (switchgear, transformers, BESS, UPS), utilities, and internal customers
• Resolve design and construction conflicts in the field in real-time, including high-voltage, medium-voltage, and low-voltage systems
• Provide budgetary costs based upon the preliminary electrical scope of the project
• Gather proposals from electrical engineers, contractors, and vendors; assign contracts upon receipt of all proposals
• Facilitate city, county, utility, and governmental approvals (including interconnection, permitting, and environmental)
• Coordinate project implementation, equipment delivery, installation, testing, and track project status through energization and turnover
• Coordinate with end users, facilities, and operations teams for building electrical operations, maintenance, and BESS/data-center power reliability
• Develop tools and approaches to supporting electrical space allocation, power capacity planning, and load growth across the Memphis campus
• Coordinate electrical real-estate and utility planning functions as needed
• Take on new electrical infrastructure projects ad-hoc as the business needs

• Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, power systems engineering, or a related field (civil, mechanical, or construction management with strong electrical experience also considered)
• 5+ years of professional experience in electrical construction, power systems engineering, substations, data-center electrical infrastructure, BESS, or facilities electrical management

• 7+ years of experience in high-voltage substations, medium-voltage distribution, data-center electrical systems, or BESS construction/project management
• Professional Engineer (PE) License (electrical)
• Experience managing multiple large-scale electrical/vertical projects (substations, data centers, industrial power)
• Knowledge of processes of jurisdictional permitting, utility interconnection, and/or environmental agencies for electrical infrastructure
• Strong understanding of electrical disciplines: high-voltage substations, transformers, switchgear, protection & control, grounding, BESS, UPS, generators, low-voltage distribution, and data-center power architecture
• Experience with project management of major electrical construction projects including estimating, cost control, schedule, contractor management, and commissioning
• Experience reading, reviewing, and approving electrical shop drawings, one-lines, protection schemes, fabrication drawings, blueprints, and technical manuals
• Data center, BESS, or large-scale manufacturing/power facility experience

• Ability to work at elevated heights (200+ feet) and around energized/high-voltage equipment (with proper training and PPE)
• Physical effort with lifting and carrying materials or equipment (up to 25 lbs.)
• Typically exposed to work in extreme outdoor environments — heat, cold, rain — as well as indoor data-center and substation environments
• Work performed in an environment requiring exposure to fumes, odors, noise, and electrical hazards
• Must be available to work extended hours and weekends when needed based on site operational and commissioning needs; flexibility required
• Valid driver's license
• Occasional travel may be required to support projects at other sites
