We are seeking an Electrical Power Systems Advisor to define and lead the electrical architecture for hyperscale and AI-focused data centers, including multi-building campuses and 100MW–1GW+ power programs.
This role represents the highest technical authority for power systems within Power Generation—setting strategy, standards, and architectural direction from concept through commissioning and live operations.
The position is designed for a proven engineering leader with deep expertise in MV/HV power systems, protection & controls, and mission-critical infrastructure, capable of influencing executives, utilities, EPCs, OEMs, and operations teams.
Key Responsibilities
• Lead the design and standardization of MV/HV power architectures for hyperscale and AI-driven data centers, including substations, switchgear, transformers, and distribution systems.
• Define scalable, repeatable electrical designs that support multi-site deployments and high-density power requirements.
• Establish and maintain protection and controls strategies, including relay coordination, system selectivity, and operational reliability.
• Drive implementation of digital power systems (e.g., IEC 61850 architectures), ensuring consistency, quality, and scalability across projects.
• Develop and validate Sequences of Operation (SoO) for normal operations, failover scenarios, maintenance, and system recovery.
• Serve as the technical lead for utility interconnection, including coordination on protection schemes, metering, and power quality requirements.
• Support advanced power strategies such as energy storage (BESS), backup generation, and grid resilience solutions.
• Partner with construction and commissioning teams to support energization, system testing, and operational readiness.
• Lead troubleshooting and root cause analysis for complex electrical and control system issues in live environments.
• Support upgrades and retrofits in operational facilities where uptime and continuity are critical.
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship to engineers across design, controls, and operations teams.
• Collaborate with OEMs, EPCs, utilities, and vendors to ensure alignment on technical standards and project execution.
• Establish and maintain engineering standards, best practices, and quality frameworks for electrical and control systems.
