Senior Electrical Testing & Commissioning Engineer

The Senior Electrical Testing & Commissioning Engineer plans, executes, and oversees electrical testing and commissioning across Fervo's geothermal power projects. The role covers the full commissioning lifecycle from pre-commissioning inspections and factory acceptance testing through field testing, system energization, and handover to operations. Equipment scope includes medium- and low-voltage switchgear, power transformers, instrument transformers (PTs and CTs), circuit breakers, protective relays, cables, MCCs, VFDs, motors, generators, and plant grounding systems.

This role is Fervo's internal expert on electrical acceptance testing. The engineer works directly with third-party NETA-accredited testing companies to scope, schedule, witness, and review testing across all equipment categories. They will also develop Fervo's own test requirements and commissioning procedures, based on NETA ATS/MTS and supplemented by IEEE, NFPA 70B, and manufacturer requirements, and will work closely with Fervo's internal Electrical Engineers to keep test scopes technically sound and consistent with the project's protection and operational philosophy.
