• Demonstrated expertise in reviewing installation documentation and commissioning checklists.
• Proficiency with Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) or similar construction management platforms, with excellent documentation and issue-tracking skills.
• Deep knowledge of medium-voltage infrastructure, including switchgear, protection schemes, transformers, and terminations, especially within hyperscale or large-scale data centers.
• Additional certifications or experience supporting medium-voltage testing and commissioning are highly desirable.
