  • Develop and review single-line diagrams, equipment specifications, protection schemes, sequences of operation, and basis-of-design documents
  • Evaluate greenfield, retrofit, and partner-provided designs for capacity, reliability, maintainability, cost, and schedule
  • Perform or oversee load-flow, short-circuit, protective-device coordination, grounding, arc-flash, and power-quality studies
  • Define requirements for substations, transformers, medium-voltage switchgear, protective relays, generators, and associated control systems
  • Work with utilities, engineering partners, equipment manufacturers, construction teams, commissioning agents, and data center operators
  • Support equipment selection, long-lead procurement, factory testing, construction sequencing, commissioning, and integrated systems testing
  • Investigate electrical failures and operational risks, driving corrective actions back into Lambda’s standards and future designs
  • Travel to project sites, manufacturers, and partner facilities as needed
