This role focuses on overseeing utility interconnection strategies, substation delivery alignment, and permanent power energization while ensuring all milestones, outages, and tie-ins are executed safely. The individual will conduct power readiness reviews, validate field turnover quality, and provide executive updates on utility constraints and risk management. Key responsibilities include coordinating with contractors, commissioning teams, and utilities to manage transition from temporary to permanent power. The role requires deep expertise in HV/MV electrical infrastructure, switchgear, transformers, protection systems, and grounding. Candidates must possess strong skills in construction project management, risk assessment, and stakeholder engagement while navigating the complexities of mission-critical data center environments and large capital programs.

  • Oversee high-voltage utility interconnection strategy, substation delivery, and permanent power readiness across OCI campuses.
  • Coordinate utility milestones, scheduled outages, tie-ins, and energization sequencing for project sites.
  • Conduct on-site power readiness reviews and assess the quality of turnover and startup alignment.
  • Manage and mitigate risks related to utility constraints, infrastructure dependencies, and schedule impacts.
  • Execute safe transitions from temporary to permanent power while enforcing standards for live work and outage planning.
  • Provide executive-level updates regarding utility constraints, power risks, and recovery priorities.
  • Mentor team members by providing technical expertise and practical guidance on field execution.

What we're looking for

  • Must have 12+ years of experience in utility power delivery, HV/MV electrical infrastructure, substations, or mission-critical construction.
  • Requires deep knowledge of utility feeds, switchgear, transformers, protection systems, and power distribution interfaces.
  • Must possess proven experience in utility coordination, interconnection strategy, and permanent power readiness.
  • Must have experience managing utility-driven schedule risks, outage constraints, and long-lead infrastructure.
  • Experience is required in commissioning, startup, turnover, and temporary-to-permanent power transitions.
  • Must demonstrate strong safety leadership regarding energized work, LOTO, and live power activities.
  • Ability to travel regularly and maintain 40–60% site engagement at active campuses.
  • A Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field is preferred.
