  • Working closely with project managers, commissioning teams and end users
  • Supporting large-scale data center construction and expansion projects
What we're looking for:
  • Experience within Building Automation, HVAC Controls, BMS or BAS
  • Exposure to commissioning, programming, integration or controls engineering
  • Experience with platforms such as Niagara, Tridium, Distech, Honeywell, Siemens, Automated Logic, Ignition, Rockwell or similar
  • Ability to read and interpret control drawings and technical documentation
  • Data center or mission-critical experience is beneficial but not required
Why consider this opportunity?
  • Work on high-profile data center projects
  • Clear progression into senior engineering and leadership positions
  • Exposure to BAS, EPMS, PLC and SCADA systems
  • Backed by a large, well-funded organization with significant growth plans
  • Access to industry-leading training and development
  • Strong project pipeline with long-term stability
  • Opportunity to work alongside some of the most experienced engineers in the mission-critical controls market
If you're a controls professional looking to work on larger projects, develop your technical skills and build a career in the data center sector, we'd be interested in speaking with you.
