TL;DR · Lead Principal Data Center Power Delivery

Lead Principal Data Center Power Delivery serves as a senior technical resource within the Data Center Infrastructure team, focusing on utility power coordination and high-voltage infrastructure for active campuses. The role involves overseeing high-voltage interconnection strategies, substation delivery alignment, and managing critical milestones such as outages, tie-ins, and permanent power energization. This position requires heavy field engagement to conduct readiness assessments, ensure turnover quality, and manage risks related to long-lead infrastructure and transition plans. Key technical competencies include deep knowledge of utility feeds, switchgear, transformers, protection systems, metering, grounding, and power distribution interfaces. The role addresses the complex challenge of ensuring reliable, safe power delivery for mission-critical data center environments by coordinating between utilities, construction teams, and operations to maintain consistent execution standards across large-scale infrastructure projects.

What you'll do

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

What we're looking for

  • 12+ years of experience in utility power delivery, HV/MV electrical infrastructure, substations, or mission-critical construction.
  • Deep knowledge of utility feeds, switchgear, transformers, protection systems, and power distribution interfaces.
  • Proven experience with utility coordination, interconnection strategy, and permanent power readiness.
  • Experience managing utility-driven risks, outage constraints, and transition from temporary to permanent power.
  • Strong safety leadership regarding energized work, LOTO, and live power activities.
  • Ability to travel regularly and maintain 40–60% site engagement for field assessments.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Construction Management, or a related field (preferred).
  • PE, PMP, OSHA 30, NFPA 70E, or similar credentials (preferred).
