  • Schedule & Risk Management – Track progress against key milestones, identify potential risks or bottlenecks, and implement proactive solutions to maintain schedule integrity.
  • Documentation & Reporting – Manage Cx documentation including pre-functional checklists, functional test scripts, issue logs, and final turnover packages.
  • Safety & Compliance – Champion a zero-incident culture; ensure commissioning activities adhere to all site safety and regulatory requirements.
  • Client Interface – Provide clear, proactive communication with client stakeholders, supporting progress reviews, technical updates, and issue resolution.
  • OFCI Coordination – Support installation and commissioning of owner-furnished, contractor-installed (OFCI) equipment such as UPS, generators, chillers, and switchgear.
  • Continuous Improvement – Contribute to the development of best practices, lessons learned, and process standardization across projects.

  • 10+ years of experience in commissioning management or field engineering on large-scale mission-critical, industrial, or infrastructure projects.
  • Strong technical understanding of mechanical, electrical, and controls systems within data centers or other high-reliability facilities.
  • Proven ability to manage and coordinate multiple contractors and vendors in a fast-paced, high-stakes environment.
  • Proficiency with Procore, Bluebeam, MS Project, BIM 360, and / or commissioning software tools.
