Description du poste

Role purpose

You will work together with our project team as an owner for electrical design - taking a data‑centre project from early concept through detailed design, procurement, construction support and handover, aligned to Eco Data Center's reference architectures and governance. You'll lead technical due diligence (TDD) for electrical scope, drive vendor selection, and make pragmatic trade-offs across resilience, protection philosophy, maintainability and cost.

What you’ll own

• End-to-end electrical fitout workstream plan, deliverables and decision log
• Electrical interfaces across UPS, switchgear, generators, BMS/EPMS, fire and commissioning
• TDD responses for electrical scope with traceable assumptions and evidence
• Equipment and vendor strategy: specifications, bid evaluations, clarifications, FAT/SAT input
• Design issue resolution during construction (RFIs, changes, non-conformance, energisation readiness)

Key responsibilities

• Lead the electrical design from early phase through construction, ensuring outputs are buildable, operable and maintainable
• Produce and defend electrical design decisions (topology, redundancy, protection philosophy, short‑circuit considerations, maintainability)
• Translate customer requirements into robust fitout solutions, including options analysis and cost/benefit trade‑offs
• Write technical specifications and RFQs for major electrical packages; run structured bid evaluation and clarification processes
• Act as technical representative with suppliers: clarification logs, performance criteria, testing/acceptance inputs
• Control technical scope and change: identify risks early, prevent scope creep, drive decisions and closures
• Work effectively in Nordic delivery environments: clear cadence, transparent stakeholder comms, pragmatic decision‑making

Typical electrical scope (indicative)

• MV/LV distribution architecture and interfaces
• Switchgear and protection/coordination intent (as required by project stage and governance)
• UPS integration, generator interfaces, power quality considerations
• Earthing/bonding philosophy and resilience considerations
• Controls and monitoring interfaces (BMS/EPMS), alarms, commissioning readiness inputs
• Energisation planning support and handover documentation requirements

Key interfaces

• CTO / technical governance (alignment to principles, waivers where needed)
• Mechanical technical lead (cooling loads, sequencing, controls interfaces)
• Controls/BMS/EPMS stakeholders (monitoring, alarms, integration approach, commissioning strategy)
• Project/construction leadership (schedule, risks, changes, installation constraints, energisation readiness focus)
• Procurement and key vendors (technical packs, evaluation, testing/acceptance criteria)

What good looks like in the first 90 days

• Electrical workstream plan established with dependencies, interfaces and decision gates
• TDD responses delivered with strong traceability, timely closures and minimal rework
• RFQ/spec packs issued for priority packages; bid evaluation framework running cleanly
• Clear interface agreements across UPS/switchgear/generators/BMS/EPMS and site delivery teams
• Practical construction support cadence in place (RFI triage, change control, energisation readiness focus)

Experience and capabilities

• Proven ownership of electrical design on mission‑critical projects (data centres strongly preferred)
• Deep electrical discipline expertise and confidence leading technical reviews and design decisions
• Strong procurement and vendor management experience (specs, bid evaluations, technical clarifications)
• Evidence‑led communication: assumptions, options and rationale that stand up in review
• Structured problem‑solving under schedule pressure; comfortable managing high‑stakes trade‑offs
• Strong collaboration style across multi‑discipline teams and site delivery stakeholders
