Dubai, Dubai, United Arab Emirates BSO Full time

DataOne is seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer to spearhead the design, development, and implementation of high-reliability electrical systems in our next-generation AI data centers. This position requires deep technical expertise in mission-critical electrical design—spanning power distribution, UPS, generators, and redundancy strategies—alongside a strong commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency. You will collaborate in a cross-functional environment with architects, mechanical engineers, project managers, and other stakeholders to ensure our data centers meet both current performance demands and future scalability requirements.

Key Responsibilities

Electrical System Design

  • Lead the design of robust, fault-tolerant electrical infrastructures tailored for mission-critical data center operations.
  • Develop single-line diagrams, schematics, and system layouts, ensuring optimal power delivery and minimal downtime.
  • Incorporate energy-efficient solutions to align with DataOne's sustainability targets and operational cost objectives.

Equipment Selection & Specification

  • Select and specify key electrical components—such as transformers, generators, UPS systems, switchgear, and distribution panels—prioritizing high availability and maintainability.
  • Conduct feasibility studies and evaluate emerging technologies to enhance performance, resilience, and sustainability.
  • Collaborate with procurement teams to identify and qualify reliable suppliers that meet stringent technical, environmental, and financial criteria.

Regulatory Compliance & Standards

  • Ensure all electrical designs and installations comply with IEC, NFPA, and local electrical codes.
  • Stay updated on evolving industry standards, implementing changes where necessary to maintain compliance and safety.
  • Integrate best practices for critical system resilience, grounding, and bonding per relevant regulatory and industry guidelines.

System Analysis & Modeling

  • Perform short-circuit analysis, load flow studies, and arc flash assessments using specialized software such as ETAP or SKM PowerTools.
  • Evaluate system performance under various operational conditions, optimizing protective device settings and layout for maximum reliability.
  • Proactively identify potential failure points, recommending upgrades or redundancy strategies to mitigate risks.

Utility Coordination & Redundancy

  • Coordinate with utility providers to secure reliable power supply contracts, manage interconnection agreements, and plan for capacity expansions.
  • Design and implement appropriate levels of redundancy (N, N+1, 2N, etc.) in line with tier-level requirements and business continuity goals.
  • Conduct power system load forecasting and recommend strategies for scalable growth, ensuring seamless integration of renewable energy sources where feasible.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Work closely with architectural, mechanical, and structural teams to align electrical system design with overall data center layouts and operational constraints.
  • Provide technical guidance to project managers, construction teams, and commissioning agents throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Participate in BIM coordination sessions, contributing electrical models and data to integrated design workflows.

Quality Assurance & Documentation

  • Develop and maintain comprehensive documentation, including design specifications, test plans, and as-built drawings.
  • Oversee factory acceptance tests (FAT) and site acceptance tests (SAT) for electrical equipment, ensuring delivery meets project and quality standards.
  • Contribute to post-project evaluations and continuous improvement initiatives, capturing lessons learned for future data center designs.
Skills & Qualifications
  • Education : Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline.
  • Experience : 8+ years of experience in electrical engineering for mission-critical facilities, preferably data centers.
  • Technical Skills : Proficiency with ETAP or SKM PowerTools for electrical analysis. Experience using AutoCAD Electrical and Revit (BIM) for design and documentation. Familiarity with renewable energy systems (solar, wind) and microgrids is a plus.
  • Soft Skills : Strong leadership, problem-solving, and communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across global, multi-disciplinary teams.
  • Certifications : Professional Engineer (PE ) license or equivalent is strongly preferred. Additional certifications related to data center design (e.g., Uptime Institute, IEEE) are advantageous.
Why Join Us?
  • High Impact Projects : Contribute to designing cutting-edge, AI-enabled data centers that shape the future of global digital infrastructure.
  • Sustainability Focus : Help drive energy-efficient solutions that reduce the environmental footprint of large-scale computing environments.
  • Global Collaboration : Work with a diverse team of experts in engineering, construction, and technology across multiple regions.
  • Professional Growth : Access continuous learning opportunities, industry conferences, and leadership training in a rapidly growing industry.
  • Innovative Culture : Be part of a forward-thinking organization dedicated to leveraging the latest technologies to support AI-driven workloads.
