You will supervise power distribution and critical electrical infrastructure from installation through testing and commissioning, coordinating with mechanical, cooling and fire protection teams.

Qualifications

• 7-10 years of progressive electrical construction field experience.
• Leadership as Electrical Superintendent or similar on complex projects.
• Strong knowledge of medium- and low-voltage systems and safety.
• Ability to read schematics, single-line diagrams and specs; NEC/NFPA 70E familiarity.
• Experience supervising electrical subcontractors and commissioning activities.

Responsabilités

• Electrical field leadership and direct daily electrical works with subcontractors.
• Oversee medium- and low-voltage distribution systems and related equipment.
• Coordinate with mechanical, cooling, fire protection, and client teams.
• Coordinate inspections, testing (megger/hi-pot), and safe energisation.
• Manage look-ahead schedules and project updates.
• Ensure safety and quality compliance (OSHA/NFPA 70E).
• Interface with AHJs and commissioning agents during start-up and close-out.

Description du poste

Join a leading international technical engineering and construction partner delivering complex design-and-build projects across North America, the UK, Ireland and mainland Europe. Our projects span data centres, advanced manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, logistics and other technically demanding sectors. We are committed to safety, quality and reliable project delivery.

About the Role

We are seeking an electrically focused, technically strong Electrical Superintendent to lead electrical construction activities on a large-scale mission-critical data centre project in Indianapolis. The successful candidate must bring substantial electrical field experience alongside proven subcontractor and site leadership. This is not a general superintendent or primarily QA/QC oversight role. You will supervise power distribution and critical electrical infrastructure from installation through testing, safe energisation and commissioning, while coordinating closely with mechanical, cooling, fire protection and other project teams.

Responsibilities

• Electrical field leadership
• Direct daily electrical works, subcontractors, manpower, deliveries, equipment installation and trade coordination; resolve installation and technical interface issues.
• Power systems
• Oversee medium- and low-voltage distribution, transformers, switchgear, panelboards, UPS and battery systems, generators, paralleling gear, busway, cable trays, grounding, bonding, lighting and controls.
• Confidently interpret one-line diagrams, electrical drawings and specifications; understand voltage transformation, current, loads and power distribution across the facility. The project includes approximately 25kV incoming utility supply down to 120/208V distribution.
• Testing and energisation
• Coordinate and technically supervise inspections, insulation-resistance (megger) testing, high-potential (hi-pot) testing where applicable, torque verification, point-to-point checks, functional testing and safe energisation. Understand the purpose, risks and results of testing, even where specialist personnel perform the tests.
• Work with electrical subcontractors, commissioning agents, engineers and client teams through start-up, functional testing, integrated systems testing and close-out of electrical issues.
• MEP interfaces
• Coordinate electrical installation with data centre cooling systems, including fan coil walls / air-handling systems, and fire detection and sprinkler infrastructure. Understand key interfaces and sequencing without needing to be a specialist mechanical designer.
• Safety and quality
• Enforce OSHA, NEC and NFPA 70E practices, including lockout/tagout, arc-flash controls, clearances, electrical permits and commissioning safety procedures; monitor workmanship and maintain punch lists.
• Programme and reporting
• Maintain look-ahead schedules, track labour and progress, identify long-lead and utility constraints, coordinate inspections with AHJs, and issue accurate site records and updates.

Qualifications

• 7-10 years of progressive electrical construction field experience, including significant hands-on or technically accountable electrical installation / supervision experience.
• Demonstrated leadership as an Electrical Superintendent, Electrical General Foreman, Electrical Construction Manager or similar on complex industrial or mission-critical projects.
• Strong technical knowledge of medium- and low-voltage electrical systems, including transformers, switchgear, UPS, generators, electrical distribution and safe energisation.
• Able to explain electrical load / amperage / voltage fundamentals and the practical application of testing such as megger and hi-pot; able to challenge contractors and escalation abnormal results appropriately.
• Experience supervising electrical subcontractors, coordinating commissioning and solving field installation problems rather than solely monitoring QA/QC documentation.
• Ability to read electrical schematics, single-line diagrams, installation details and construction specifications; working knowledge of NEC, NFPA 70E and OSHA requirements.
• Ability and willingness to work full-time on site in Indianapolis; valid driver's licence.

Required Skills

• Electrical technical leadership.
• Medium- and low-voltage systems.
• Electrical testing and commissioning.
• Subcontractor coordination.
• MEP coordination.
• Proactive problem-solving.
• Safety and quality.

Preferred Skills

• Prior delivery of hyperscale or mission-critical data centres, particularly electrical rooms, power distribution, UPS infrastructure and commissioning phases.
• Working knowledge of data centre mechanical cooling, HVAC and fire sprinkler / protection systems and their electrical interfaces.
• Electrical trade background, journeyman or master electrician credentials, or an electrical engineering background followed by field leadership.
• OSHA 30 and relevant electrical safety training; familiarity with Procore, Bluebeam, CMiC, Viewpoint, Primavera P6 or MS Project.

Pay range and compensation package

• Competitive base salary commensurate with experience and annual performance bonus eligibility.
• Comprehensive health and dental benefits, retirement savings plan and professional development support.
