Reporting To: Mechanical QA/QC Team Lead & QA/QC Manager (Above Level)
Position Overview
The
ELV Specialist - Containment & Cabling (Mechanical/Integrated)
is responsible for overseeing all ELV containment, routing, and cabling activities from a
mechanical QA/QC coordination standpoint
, specifically within
data center and mechanically integrated environments.
This role focuses on system integration, spatial coordination, proper segregation, and adherence to multidisciplinary design interfaces. The Specialist ensures that all ELV containment systems and cabling installations comply with project specifications, authority regulations, coordination drawings, and
high-accuracy data center standards.
The role is
hands-on, site-based
, and requires a candidate who can begin
immediately
and holds a
relevant engineering degree
.
Key Responsibilities1. ELV Containment & Cabling Oversight
Inspect, verify, and ensure correct installation of ELV containment systems such as:
Cable trays, ladders, baskets, and trunking
Conduits and raceways
Underfloor/overhead containment
Fire-rated cabling pathways
Monitor ELV cabling installations for:
Proper routing and segregation
Correct bend radius, pulling methods, and termination standards
Compliance with mechanical pathway constraints
Avoidance of clashes with HVAC, piping, fire safety, and structural elements
2. Mechanical-Integrated Coordination
Work within the mechanical team structure to ensure ELV routes align with:
Mechanical containment
HVAC ducting and CHW piping
Fire suppression systems
Data hall white space coordination layouts
Review and cross-check ELV shop drawings, BIM models, and combined services drawings for accuracy and constructability.
Flag and resolve coordination conflicts between ELV contractors and mechanical/MEP teams.
3. QA/QC Functions
Conduct inspections and raise WIRs/MIRs as required for ELV containment and cabling works.
Ensure all installations conform to:
Project specifications
Industry and authority standards (TIA, BICSI, NFPA, local codes)
Builder's work and mechanical routing constraints
Identify non-conformances, issue NCRs, and follow up corrective actions with discipline leads.
4. Compliance, Routing & Segregation
Ensure proper segregation between:
ELV and LV cables
ELV and mechanical systems
Life-safety vs non-life-safety systems
Confirm correct installation distance, separation, and shielding in accordance with project and international guidelines.
Verify that containment and cabling maintain data center operational and redundancy requirements.
5. Documentation & Reporting
Prepare QA/QC reports and maintain logs for inspections, NCRs, and site progress.
Verify and approve:
Method statements
ITPs specific to ELV containment
As-built documentation
Contribute to testing, commissioning, and integrated systems sign-offs as required.
6. Site Coordination & Technical Support
Liaise with multidisciplinary teams (mechanical, electrical, ELV, civil, commissioning).
Support interface coordination with:
Security systems
ICT/data cabling
BMS and monitoring systems
Fire alarm and life-safety systems
Provide technical guidance to ensure site teams follow the approved coordination layouts.
Qualifications & Experience
Mandatory Requirements
Bachelor's Degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics, Telecommunications, or related)
.
Immediate availability
to start.
Experience
3-7 years' experience in ELV containment, cabling, QA/QC, or integrated MEP coordination roles.
Experience in
data centers, mission-critical facilities, or large-scale MEP projects
is strongly preferred.
Solid understanding of containment routing for systems such as:
CCTV
Access control
Structured cabling (CAT6A, fiber)
Fire alarm
BMS and controls
IT/ICT networks
Skills & Competencies
Excellent ability to read and interpret:
Coordination drawings
BIM models
ELV/MEP shop drawings
Strong understanding of ELV segregation rules and mechanical routing constraints.
Proactive in identifying coordination clashes or improper installations.
Strong communication, teamwork, and reporting skills.
Attention to detail with a strong commitment to quality control and compliance.
Ability to manage interface coordination across multiple disciplines.
Work Environment
Data center-based and external site areas as required.
Fast-paced, coordination-heavy environment requiring precision and strong discipline control.
Regular interaction with mechanical, ELV, electrical, and QA/QC teams.
This role requires an immediate start, high technical capability, and strong QA/QC discipline to support project accuracy and compliance.
