QA/QC Engineer
Summary
On-site QA/QC engineer inspects and tests critical electrical systems for data centers, ensuring compliance with safety and performance standards like NEC and Uptime Institute.
Perform hands-on quality assurance and control for mission-critical electrical systems on fast-paced hyperscale data center projects. Ensure flawless installation, testing, and compliance of HV/MV/LV distribution, switchgear, generators, UPS, busway, redundant power paths (2N/N+1), grounding, and related infrastructure to meet NEC, NFPA, IEEE, TIA-942, Uptime Institute, and hyperscale owner standards—with zero tolerance for defects or rework.
Key Responsibilities
- Execute daily field inspections and verify installations (switchgear, generators, UPS, busway, PDUs, RPPs, cable tray, terminations, torque, labeling, grounding/bonding).
- Develop/review Inspection & Test Plans (ITPs), checklists, and QA/QC procedures.
- Witness and document FAT/SAT, pre-energization checks, insulation/hi-pot testing, contact resistance, relay/breaker testing, and functional/performance tests.
- Identify, document, and resolve non-conformances (NCRs); verify corrective actions and close-outs.
- Prepare inspection logs, test reports, and turnover packages for client/commissioning handover.
- Support commissioning and integrated systems testing (IST); interface with CxA, third-party testers, owners, and AHJs.
- Enforce safety protocols (LOTO, NFPA 70E, arc-flash compliance) during electrical work.
