About the Opportunity

CAPISIUS Consulting is recruiting on behalf of a client delivering large-scale cloud data center infrastructure programs. The client's name is confidential at this stage and will be disclosed to qualified candidates during the interview process.

Role Overview

As a BMS Validation Engineer on the Commissioning Validation team, you will validate building management system (BMS) readiness for large-scale data center deployments, expansions, and operational handoffs. This role ensures that BMS points, sequences, alarms, trends, graphics, integrations, and controls documentation are complete, accurate, tested, and ready to support day-one operations at scale.

You will work across Site Deployment, Commissioning, Controls Engineering, Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Construction, Facilities Operations, Reliability, Safety, Security, Network, vendors, and site leadership to verify that deployed controls systems are aligned to design intent, commissioning evidence, site readiness requirements, operational procedures, and turnover expectations.

This is not a general controls support role. It is a commissioning validation role focused on disciplined verification, issue tracking, evidence review, and risk-based readiness decisions for mission-critical data center environments.

Key Responsibilities

• Validate BMS readiness for new data centers, expansions, retrofit programs, infrastructure readiness milestones, and operational transition activities.
• Review BMS commissioning evidence, functional test records, point-to-point verification, sequence validation results, graphics packages, alarm matrices, trend logs, and turnover documentation.
• Verify that BMS monitoring and control coverage supports the critical mechanical, electrical, environmental, and safety systems required for reliable data center operations.
• Partner with commissioning agents, controls vendors, engineering, construction, and site operations to confirm open controls issues are documented, owned, prioritized, and driven to closure.
• Validate BMS alarm configuration, alarm routing, escalation logic, priority levels, naming conventions, setpoints, thresholds, and operational response alignment.
• Confirm that BMS graphics, navigation, point naming, equipment mapping, and site-specific views are accurate, usable, and aligned with operational standards.
• Support integrated systems testing, failure-mode testing, cause-and-effect validation, and site readiness reviews by reviewing evidence and identifying gaps that may affect turnover or operational supportability.
• Track BMS validation findings, risks, dependencies, corrective actions, acceptance exceptions, and readiness status using approved project management and deployment tracking tools.
• Translate validation requirements into clear checklists, acceptance criteria, issue logs, dashboards, and readiness summaries for deployment and leadership review.
• Support turnover readiness by validating BMS prerequisites, as-built information, controls documentation, training needs, spares or support requirements, and operational handoff materials.
• Coordinate validation activities with maintenance windows, access controls, change management, safety requirements, security constraints, and site operating conditions.
• Escalate unresolved BMS risks that may affect safety, reliability, deployment milestones, customer commitments, or day-one operational readiness.

Required Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in BMS, controls validation, commissioning, data center operations, critical facilities, building automation, facilities engineering, construction support, or mission-critical infrastructure delivery; IC3 candidates may bring 3+ years with strong technical depth and field execution experience.
• Experience validating BMS or building automation systems in data centers, industrial facilities, colocation environments, utilities, manufacturing, healthcare, aviation, or other high-availability environments.
• Working knowledge of BMS/controls platforms, control sequences, alarm management, trending, graphics, point naming, equipment integration, and functional performance testing.
• Strong understanding of how BMS integrates with mechanical and electrical infrastructure such as CRAH/CRAC units, chillers, pumps, cooling towers, air handlers, generators, UPS systems, switchgear, EPMS, leak detection, and environmental monitoring systems.
• Experience reviewing commissioning evidence, test scripts, issue logs, design documents, as-builts, sequences of operations, cause-and-effect matrices, and turnover packages.
• Ability to translate technical validation findings into clear risks, action plans, acceptance decisions, and leadership-ready status updates.
• Bachelor's degree in engineering, construction management, facilities management, information systems, or equivalent practical experience preferred.

Skills and Competencies

• Strong validation discipline across scope, evidence review, readiness criteria, punch-list closure, issue tracking, risk escalation, and stakeholder communication.
• Technical judgment to identify controls gaps that could affect safety, reliability, maintainability, operational visibility, or deployment readiness.
• Ability to work across commissioning, construction, engineering, operations, vendors, and site leadership without direct authority.
• Clear written and verbal communication, including concise risk summaries, readiness reports, escalation notes, and executive-level updates.
• Strong attention to detail in point lists, alarm matrices, sequences, graphics, testing evidence, issue logs, naming standards, and turnover records.
• Comfort operating in fast-moving deployment environments with evolving milestones, site constraints, and competing priorities.
• Continuous improvement mindset focused on repeatable validation standards, scalable playbooks, and predictable handoff outcomes.

Preferred Skills / Certifications

• Experience with hyperscale data centers, cloud infrastructure, colocation, critical facilities, or large-scale commissioning programs.
• Familiarity with BMS, EPMS, SCADA, DCIM, CMMS, ticketing systems, commissioning platforms, Smartsheet, MS Project, Primavera, Jira, ServiceNow, or similar tracking tools.
• Knowledge of ASHRAE guidance, electrical and mechanical system monitoring, controls network architecture, cybersecurity considerations for OT systems, and operational alarming practices.
• Certifications or training in commissioning, controls, data center operations, project management, OSHA, Lean, Six Sigma, or quality management.
• Experience developing validation checklists, turnover standards, dashboard reporting, issue management routines, or commissioning acceptance criteria.

Work Environment / Physical Demands

This is an onsite role supporting the client's data center delivery portfolio. The position may be assigned to any active or planned program site based on business need, project phase, deployment priorities, and capacity delivery requirements. Site assignments may change over time as programs progress from planning through construction, commissioning, deployment, turnover, and operational handoff.

The role requires regular onsite presence to participate in field reviews, readiness meetings, deployment activities, commissioning and validation milestones, vendor coordination, issue resolution, and operational handoff support. Travel or temporary assignment to other program sites may be required to support schedule-critical milestones, escalations, lessons learned, or portfolio priorities.

Site visits may involve walking large facilities, standing for extended periods, using stairs, entering white-space or infrastructure areas, coordinating with vendor teams, and following all site safety, PPE, security, and access-control requirements, with or without reasonable accommodation.

Why Join?

• Global impact at cloud scale: Support mission-critical infrastructure deployment for customers around the world.
• Technically rigorous environment: Work with deployment, commissioning, construction, engineering, operations, safety, security, vendors, and site leaders where reliability and readiness matter every day.
• Culture built on operational excellence: Join an organization that values ownership, safety, disciplined execution, clear documentation, continuous improvement, and cross-functional partnership.
