5-8 yearscommissioning experience on medium-to-large electrical projects (buildings, data centers, healthcare, airports, industrial, or infrastructure).
BSc in Electrical Engineering(or equivalent).
Hands-on with MV / LV energization, protection testing (primary/secondary injection), breaker tests, transformer testing, VFD / MCC commissioning, PFC tuning*, load bank tests, and generator/UPS changeover. Solid documentation discipline: test packs, ITPs, PSAT / SAT*, certificates, CAT trackers, red-lines/as-builts. Coordination with GC/Consultant/subs and crisp, standards-based technical communication.
Preferred Qualifications:
-----------------------------
Interfaces with BMS / Fire Alarmduring IST; ELV familiarity is a plus but not core.
Vendor exposure (e.g., ABB/Schneider/Siemens switchgear; Cummins/Kohler gensets; APC/Eaton UPS).
