About the role

You will oversee electrical contractors and crews building the advanced electrical infrastructure for SpaceXAI's Memphis Data Center — including underground duct banks, high-voltage and medium-voltage systems, power distribution, grounding, lighting, and process power for mission-critical facilities. This is a full-time, onsite role based in Memphis, Tennessee, with relocation required depending on additional construction locations within the US. RESPONSIBILITIES - Oversee and coordinate electrical installations including underground duct banks, conduits, cable pulling, terminations, switchgear, transformers, generators, UPS systems, PDUs, and grounding for SpaceXAI Data Centers. - Manage and schedule electrical contractors, subcontractors, and on-site crews to deliver project milestones on time and to SpaceXAI'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 SpaceXAI'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 SpaceXAI's stringent quality standards. - Prepare and present clear progress reports, electrical construction metrics, and risk updates to senior leadership. BASIC QUALIFICATIONS - 3+ years managing electrical construction teams with strong emphasis on large-scale industrial or mission-critical electrical projects. - 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. PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE - 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. ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS - 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.
