• Enforce strict safety, quality control, and regulatory compliance on all sites, including site access, lockout/tagout, and other mission-critical procedures.
• Collaborate with design engineers, integrators, and commissioning agents to resolve technical issues, optimize system performance, and ensure constructability of control and automation systems.
• Manage procurement and material tracking for long-lead and critical-path components such as UPS units, switchgear, chillers, and specialized controls equipment.
• Provide technical leadership on control system integration, data interfaces, and handover documentation to operations teams; ensure clear as-built records and O&M manuals.
• Conduct regular site inspections, weekly coordination meetings, and stakeholder updates; maintain accurate site documentation, RFIs, submittals, and change orders.
• Drive continuous improvement by capturing lessons learned, implementing best practices for automation and commissioning, and mentoring junior staff.
