You should be comfortable independently leading system startup, interpreting electrical schematics and wiring diagrams, coordinating multiple site activities and making technical decisions in the field.

The Leadership Piece

This role will be one of the key people responsible for establishing the new Northern Indiana operation.

It’s a strong opportunity for someone who enjoys being technically hands‑on but wants genuine responsibility for building and leading a team.

Why Consider It?

• Major Data Center projects
• Hands‑on electrical & commissioning leadership
• Lead Field Engineers and Technicians
• Brand‑new Northern Indiana office
• Backing of an established global organization
• Opportunity to help build the team from day one
