The Opportunity

Join our international and multidisciplinary team of passionate design engineers and help us create high-quality, sustainable, and innovative data centre infrastructures.

• Lead the design of electrical systems for medium to large-scale mission-critical projects, including MV, LV, and ELV systems, from concept design through construction supervision and handover
• Own the preparation and review of design deliverables, ensuring technical quality, coordination, compliance, and alignment with client requirements, project objectives, and industry best practice
• Work closely with data centre clients and multidisciplinary teams of architects, engineers, advisors, authorities, utilities, and external partners to deliver integrated, high-quality electrical solutions
• Present technical solutions clearly to technical and non-technical audiences, connecting design decisions to wider project goals, client needs, resilience, efficiency, and long-term performance
• Mentor and support junior colleagues, sharing knowledge across local, regional, and global teams, and contributing to a collaborative, high-performing project environment
