About the role

Why this role

Join NDY’s Mission Critical team and help deliver complex electrical design for data centre projects across brownfield upgrades, greenfield developments and technical consultancy work.

This is a senior role for an engineer who can work with a high degree of independence, lead electrical scope on technically complex projects, and produce strong consultancy-quality documentation. You will work across concept through delivery on large-scale power infrastructure, with a focus on resilient electrical systems rather than interiors-focused lighting and small power work.

This opportunity will suit someone who enjoys technically demanding project work, direct client engagement and meaningful ownership of electrical delivery in a specialist data centre environment.

Prepare and coordinate designs for UPS, generators, powertrain systems, switchboards and large-scale power distribution

Lead the electrical aspects of projects from concept through delivery with limited day-to-day direction

Nice to haves
