Lead Electrical engineering

A rapidly growing technology infrastructure business is looking for a senior electrical engineering leader to oversee electrical delivery across a growing portfolio of AI infrastructure sites throughout APAC.

This is a senior technical leadership position responsible for electrical engineering execution across multiple projects, from design review and procurement through construction, commissioning and handover.

The role will lead a geographically distributed team and work closely with construction, commissioning, mechanical, controls and operations teams to ensure projects are delivered safely, consistently and to a high technical standard.

Key Responsibilities

Lead the electrical engineering function across multiple AI infrastructure projects.

Oversee the implementation and adaptation of electrical designs to suit local regulations, site conditions and project requirements.

Provide technical leadership across MV/LV distribution, UPS, standby generation, protection, earthing, bonding and power quality.

Lead design reviews, technical assurance, change control and management of site deviations.

Oversee FAT, SAT, commissioning readiness, energisation and handover activities.

Work closely with contractors, consultants, utilities, OEMs and other project stakeholders.

Identify technical issues during construction and commissioning and act as the escalation point for electrical matters.

Feed project and operational learnings back into engineering standards, templates and future design development.

Build and develop a distributed electrical engineering team across multiple locations.

Establish consistent engineering standards and processes across the project portfolio.

Work closely with Construction, Commissioning and Operations to ensure a smooth transition from build to operation.

About You

12 years' experience in electrical power engineering, ideally within data centres, hyperscale infrastructure, industrial power or other mission-critical environments.

Strong technical knowledge across MV/LV distribution, UPS systems, standby and prime-power generation, switchgear, protection and relay coordination.

Experience with earthing, bonding, arc-flash, power quality and safety-in-design.

Strong understanding of power system modelling, including load flow and short-circuit studies.

Experience managing electrical engineering delivery across design, construction, testing, commissioning and handover.

Proven experience leading engineers and managing external consultants, contractors and equipment suppliers.

Experience working across multiple projects or geographically distributed teams.

Strong understanding of engineering governance, design standards, technical assurance and change control.

Experience working with utilities, regulators and major electrical equipment vendors.

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, ideally with a power systems focus.

APAC project experience, particularly Australia and Indonesia, would be highly regarded.

The Role

Senior leadership position within the infrastructure delivery team.

Based in Australia or Singapore, with regular travel across project locations.

Opportunity to work on large-scale AI and digital infrastructure projects across APAC.

Lead a growing electrical engineering function and have significant influence over how projects are delivered.
