Candidates will coordinate installations, maintain documentation, enforce safety programs, and report progress to senior leadership.
Requirements
Skills
3+ years managing electrical construction teams
3+ years of direct hands‑on experience in electrical installations including underground duct banks, high‑voltage/medium‑voltage systems, cable pulling/terminations, switchgear, and power distribution — ideally on data centers, industrial process, or heavy power projects
High school diploma or equivalency certificate
Postsecondary diploma or degree in construction management, electrical engineering, or related field
Proven track record supervising electrical construction for data centers, hyperscale facilities, or similar mission‑critical environments
Familiarity with Memphis‑area building codes, electrical regulations (NEC, NFPA 70E), and industrial permitting
Experience with construction management software (Procore, AutoCAD, Bluebeam, MS Project, etc.) on complex infrastructure projects
Deep knowledge of electrical construction critical paths, sequencing, and coordination with mechanical/civil trades through commissioning
Strong understanding of data center electrical specifications, redundancy requirements, grounding, and power systems designed for 24/7 operation
Demonstrated ability to lead diverse crews under tight deadlines while maintaining collaboration and safety
Expert‑level commitment to electrical safety (NFPA 70E, LOTO, arc flash) and history of building strong safety cultures on regulated sites
Excellent problem‑solving and conflict‑resolution skills for technically complex electrical scenarios
Proficiency with Microsoft Office suite (Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Teams, Project) for reporting and scheduling
Subject to pre‑employment drug screening and random drug and alcohol testing
Subject to pre‑employment and annual post‑employment background checks
Comfortable working in industrial environments with exposure to noise, heavy equipment, excavations, and energized electrical systems
Available to work night shift as the primary schedule, with flexibility for evenings and weekends as site operational needs dictate
Ability to lift 25+ lbs and perform physically demanding tasks in outdoor/tight conditions
Responsibilities
Oversee and coordinate electrical installations including underground duct banks, conduits, cable pulling, terminations, switchgear, transformers, generators, UPS systems, PDUs, and grounding for xAI Data Centers
Manage and schedule electrical contractors, subcontractors, and on‑site crews to deliver project milestones on time and to xAI’s exacting quality and reliability standards
Ensure all contractors adhere to electrical scope, delivering high‑integrity power systems critical to data center uptime and operational readiness
Monitor daily night‑shift progress of electrical construction, maintaining detailed logs, red‑line drawings, and as‑built documentation for power infrastructure
Develop and enforce aggressive construction schedules while keeping the project on time and within budget
Champion and enforce xAI’s safety program, building a zero‑incident culture across all teams working around energized equipment, excavations, and heavy electrical installations
Lead, train, and supervise foremen and electrical crews, fostering teamwork and accountability in a high‑stakes mission‑critical environment
Proactively resolve on‑site challenges — material delays, technical conflicts, sequencing issues, and coordination with other trades — with a strong focus on electrical system reliability and code compliance
Conduct regular night‑shift site inspections to verify compliance with local regulations, electrical codes, safety protocols, and xAI’s stringent quality standards
Prepare and present clear progress reports, electrical construction metrics, and risk updates to senior leadership
