Lead Engineer - Electrical Design & Production
About this role
Role purpose
You will work together with our project team as an owner for electrical design - taking a data-centre project from early concept through detailed design, procurement, construction support and handover, aligned to Eco Data Center's reference architectures and governance. You’ll lead technical due diligence (TDD) for electrical scope, drive vendor selection, and make pragmatic trade-offs across resilience, protection philosophy, maintainability and cost.
What you’ll own
End-to-end electrical fitout workstream plan, deliverables and decision log
Electrical interfaces across UPS, switchgear, generators, BMS/EPMS, fire and commissioning
TDD responses for electrical scope with traceable assumptions and evidence
Equipment and vendor strategy: specifications, bid evaluations, clarifications, FAT/SAT input
Design issue resolution during construction (RFIs, changes, non-conformance, energisation readiness)
Responsibilities
- Lead the electrical design from early phase through construction, ensuring outputs are buildable, operable and maintainable
- Produce and defend electrical design decisions (topology, redundancy, protection philosophy, short-circuit considerations, maintainability)
- Translate customer requirements into robust fitout solutions, including options analysis and cost/benefit trade-offs
- Write technical specifications and RFQs for major electrical packages; run structured bid evaluation and clarification processes
- Act as technical representative with suppliers: clarification logs, performance criteria, testing/acceptance inputs
- Control technical scope and change: identify risks early, prevent scope creep, drive decisions and closures
- Work effectively in Nordic delivery environments: clear cadence, transparent stakeholder comms, pragmatic decision-making
- Typical electrical scope (indicative)
- MV/LV distribution architecture and interf
