RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Directly oversee foremen and, through them, a large self-perform electrical crew installing underground duct banks, conduits, cable, terminations, switchgear, transformers, generators, UPS systems, PDUs, and grounding
  • Set clear expectations for safety, quality, schedule, and conduct, and hold foremen and crews accountable when those expectations are missed
  • Remove roadblocks so crews can keep working: materials, access, sequencing, coordination with other trades, and decisions
  • Recommend promotions, role changes, and corrective action based on performance
  • Plan and run the night-shift assignment, including extended hours, as part of a 24/7 operation
  • Keep electrical installations on SpaceXSI’s quality and reliability standards, including code compliance and system integrity required for data center uptime
  • Track daily progress and maintain logs, red-line drawings, and as-built documentation for power infrastructure
  • Build and hold an aggressive construction schedule, on time and within budget
  • Champion SpaceXSI’s safety program and a zero-incident culture around energized equipment, excavations, and heavy electrical work
  • Resolve on-site issues — material delays, technical conflicts, sequencing, and trade coordination — with attention to reliability and code compliance
  • Inspect work for compliance with local regulations, electrical codes, safety protocols, and SpaceXSI quality standards
  • Report progress, electrical construction metrics, and risks to senior leadership
  • Relocate with the mobile team as assignments change, starting in Memphis, TN / Southaven, MS

Requirements

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

  • High school diploma or equivalency certificate
  • 3+ years leading electrical construction teams, including supervision of foremen

  • Direct hands-on experience on industrial processes or heavy power projects
  • Postsecondary diploma or degree in construction management, electrical engineering, or a related field
  • Track record on data centers, hyperscale facilities, or similar mission-critical electrical construction
  • Familiarity with Memphis-area building codes, NEC, NFPA 70E, and industrial permitting
  • Experience with Procore, AutoCAD, Bluebeam, MS Project, or similar tools on complex infrastructure work
  • Strong grasp of electrical critical path, sequencing, and coordination with mechanical and civil trades through commissioning
  • Understanding of data center electrical specifications, redundancy, grounding, and power systems built for 24/7 operation
  • History of leading diverse crews to a deadline without giving up collaboration or safety
  • Working knowledge of NFPA 70E, LOTO, and arc flash, and a record of building a safety culture on regulated sites
  • Strong problem-solving and conflict resolution on technically complex electrical work
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office (Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Teams, Project)

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS

  • Subject to pre-employment drug screening and random drug/alcohol testing, and pre-employment/post-employment background checks
  • This role is part of the mobile construction team and you will be expected to travel to the assigned work project. Current work assignment is based in Memphis, TN / Southaven, MS. Future assignments will require relocation to other U.S. construction sites. Per diem is provided while on assignment
