You are, first and foremost, an accomplished electrical engineer for mission-critical, high-density digital infrastructure. You bring deep expertise in medium- and low-voltage distribution, UPS systems, standby and prime-power generation, static and rotary switching, protection and relay coordination, arc-flash and safety-in-design, earthing and bonding, and the specific electrical demands of dense GPU compute halls and liquid-cooled AI infrastructure. You understand power system modelling — load flow, short-circuit, motor starting, transient stability — and you have used it to make consequential design and operational decisions.
Across the delivery lifecycle, you are equally at home leading tender design reviews, consultant and contractor governance, factory acceptance testing, integrated systems testing, level-1 through level-5 commissioning, and handover to operations. You have authored or materially shaped Basis of Design documents, engineering templates, global minimum standards, and change-control processes at a hyperscale operator or equivalent. You are comfortable engaging utilities, regulators, and major equipment vendors, and you know how to drive value engineering, DfMA, and sustainability outcomes without compromising reliability.
Above all, you have the temperament of a senior technical leader operating across geographies: strong systems thinking, calm judgement under construction and commissioning pressure, the confidence to challenge design and vendor assumptions constructively, and the communication skill to carry a room of site engineers, a customer technical review, and an executive readout with equal clarity. You bring commercial awareness, comfort operating across cultures and time zones, and a genuine passion for building AI infrastructure that works reliably from day one.
The ideal candidate will bring a strong technical foundation in electrical power engineering, ideally with a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering (power systems preferred) recognised in at least one of Firmus’s operating jurisdictions, together with more than 12 years of progressive experience across hyperscale or mission-critical data centre developments, industrial power systems, or comparable high-availability infrastructure. They will have deep, hands-on expertise as an electrical subject-matter expert and design manager on multi-site programmes, and a proven track record leading design governance, quality assurance, and commissioning readiness across a portfolio of concurrent projects.
This experience should include leading distributed, site-based engineering teams across multiple countries, managing external consultants and EPC contractors to global standards, and working effectively across the build-to-run interface with Construction, Commissioning, and Operations. Experience authoring or contributing materially to global electrical Basis of Design, minimum standards, or reference architecture at a hyperscale, cloud, or specialist AI infrastructure operator is a strong differentiator, as is experience delivering into APAC markets — particularly Indonesia and Australia — under diverse regulatory, grid, and utility conditions.
