Construction and new builds low-voltage design, program delivery, vendor oversight
ROLE SUMMARY
Owns the IT infrastructure content of construction and lifecycle projects: new building deployments, network room build-outs, cabling projects, and refresh initiatives. Acts as Client technical authority to Facilities, architects, general contractors, and low-voltage subcontractors reviewing designs, producing specifications, controlling scope and materials, and holding contractors to the standard. This is a design and program-engineering role, not an installation role; execution is performed by contracted trades under this engineer's direction.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Design and specification
  • Partner with Facilities, Network, AV, Security, and End User Support stakeholders to establish IT requirements for each project at the design stage.
  • Review architectural, electrical, and low-voltage drawings against Client standards; issue formal design comments and track resolution.
  • Produce construction documents, specifications, and installation standards for low-voltage cabling contractors.
  • Define equipment placement within network rooms rack elevations and positions for network gear, security and Client panels, service wall fields, pathway and containment routes.
  • Specify pathway, grounding/bonding, fire-stopping, labelling, and testing requirements in line with TIA/BICSI standards and local code.
Program and vendor delivery
  • Develop ROM and BOM for new builds and refreshes; drive procurement of long-lead materials against project milestones.
  • Oversee low-voltage contractors through installation, ensuring work is delivered to design specification and quality standard.
  • Issue Statements of Work and detailed working instructions to vendors; review and validate submittals, RFIs, and change orders.
  • Walk construction projects on a regular cadence and issue written site reports capturing Client feedback, defects, and corrective actions.
  • Manage punch-list closure, acceptance testing, and test-result review (fibre and copper certification) prior to sign-off.
Closeout and handover
  • Compile and record close-out documentation as-built drawings, test results, warranty certificates, labelling schedules and hand over to the operations team and end users.
  • Ensure all newly delivered infrastructure is loaded into Netbox/Nautobot and CMDB before project closure.
  • Conduct formal handover walkthroughs so operations inherit a documented, supportable environment.
  • Capture lessons learned and feed improvements back into Client design standards and vendor specifications.
Capacity and lifecycle engineering
  • Maintain a forward view of network room capacity available ports, fibre strand counts, PDU outlets, rack units, and power headroom and flag constraints ahead of demand.
  • Plan and scope lifecycle refresh initiatives for cable plant, racks, and power infrastructure.
  • Support regional power shutdown planning from an infrastructure design and risk perspective.
REQUIRED SKILLS AND QUALIFICATIONS
  • Bachelor s degree in information technology, Engineering, Construction Management, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
  • 8+ years in low-voltage design, telecommunications consulting, IT construction project management, or structured cabling program delivery.
  • RCDD certification (or actively pursuing) this is the core credential for the design and specification scope.
  • Working command of TIA-568/569/606/607, BICSI TDMM practice, NEC low-voltage provisions, and applicable local building and fire code.
  • Ability to read and markup architectural, electrical, and telecom drawings; proficiency with AutoCAD, Revit, or Bluebeam for review and redline.
  • Demonstrated experience directing low-voltage subcontractors and general contractors, including SOW authoring, submittal review, and change-order control.
  • Deep understanding of network room infrastructure racks, containment, grounding, power distribution, cooling, and fibre/copper plant design.
  • Strong written communication; able to produce specifications, site reports, and closeout packages to a professional standard.
  • Comfortable operating with minimal direction in ambiguous, fast-moving construction environments.
PREFERRED
  • 10+ years of related experience, including delivery of ground-up building or large campus fit-out projects.
  • Additional BICSI credentials (DCDC, OSP, RTPM) or PMP.
  • Experience delivering lab, cleanroom, or high-density compute environments.
  • Proficiency with DCIM/CMDB platforms, and with SQL, Python, or PowerBI/Tableau for capacity and program reporting.
  • Prior experience at a large-scale technology company or hyperscale operator.
SERVICE MEASURES
  • Projects delivered to schedule and to design specification, with defects closed before handover.
  • Design reviews completed within agreed turnaround at each project gate.
  • BOM/ROM accuracy against final installed quantities.
  • Complete closeout documentation and CMDB records at every project completion.
