Data Center QA/QC Engineer — Mid Level


Are you experienced in data center commissioning, MEP QA/QC, field engineering, commissioning, or construction quality roles? Do you enjoy being onsite ensuring mission-critical systems are built right the first time?

We’re hiring a mid-level Data Center QA/QC Engineer to execute the client’s QA/QC program across L1–L5 commissioning levels (or as defined by project scope). This is a full-time, traveler position (40–50 hours/week; potential overtime) with expenses covered — projects located across the United States.

Key Responsibilities

  • Review MEP project drawings, approved submittals, and specifications as required.
Question for you: How do you prioritize discrepancies found in drawings vs. submittals?

  • Inspect incoming MEP equipment and complete receiving checklists in the project software platform.
Question for you: What’s your approach to handling an equipment delivery that fails inspection?

  • Run preparatory phase meetings with subcontractors (when required) to confirm site readiness.
  • Review MEP mockups for equipment/systems per specifications.
Question for you: Describe a mockup review where you caught a critical issue before installation.

  • Document and track QA/QC deliverables and test reports during L2–L3 (NETA, short circuit studies, torque/megger sheets, TAB, etc.).
  • Ensure set-in-place inspection checklists are completed by JLL‑SKAE and subs/vendors.
  • Inspect for foreign object debris (FOD) inside MEP equipment when required.
  • Perform final equipment inspections prior to L3 energization and verify all L3 deliverables including startup reports.
  • Assist in developing Methods of Procedure (MOPs) for equipment and systems.
Question for you:Have you authored or executed MOPs? Share one example of a risk you mitigated.

  • Track and organize L1–L3 documentation in Procore or similar platforms.
  • Record observations/issues during walkthroughs and manage timely closeout in the project software.
Question for you: How do you ensure observations are tracked to completion with multiple subcontractors involved?
