Responsibilities

  • Create data center electrical designs and collaborate with other disciplines to produce a construction document set.
  • Ensure designs meet or exceed quality requirements and stay within budgetary constraints.
  • Work with local agencies to ensure compliance with federal, state, and municipal requirements and building codes.
  • Review and approve equipment submittals.
  • Define project scope and provide technical support during construction phases.
