TGRC is supporting a high-growth, investment-backed energy and infrastructure developer building large-scale data center campuses alongside a significant U.S. energy platform. This is a key hire within the Data Center Engineering function, responsible for technical leadership across hyperscale projects from early concept/test-fit through commissioning and operations.

The Sr. Manager, Data Center Project Engineering will lead the engineering direction of AI/HPC-enabled data centers across the full project lifecycle. This role requires deep technical expertise in electrical + mechanical systems, with working knowledge of civil, structural, and architectural considerations, plus the ability to manage cross-functional execution across internal stakeholders, tenants, and external partners.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead design and delivery of hyperscale data centers from concept → operations, including standardization of repeatable design

• Drive development of both turnkey and core & shell builds, typically 100MW–300MW IT scale

• Act as the primary technical point of contact for internal teams, contractors, regulators, customers, and development partners

• Own the full lifecycle: test-fit, permitting, engineering, procurement, construction, testing, commissioning, and handover

• Review engineering design packages for compliance with applicable codes, environmental requirements, and internal standards

• Develop and manage budgets, schedules, risk plans, and delivery milestones

• Support/lead multidisciplinary engineering teams and external consultants/contractors

• Ensure health, safety, and environmental standards are embedded across design and delivery

• Coordinate with grid operators, utilities, and permitting authorities to secure approvals

• Track emerging technologies and evolving standards in the data center market (AI/HPC, cooling, redundancy, etc.)

What We’re Looking For

• 10+ years in data center design / engineering, including hyperscale campus and building design

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Civil Engineering (Master’s preferred) or Architecture

Strong knowledge of:

• Electrical redundancy configurations (substation → MV distribution)

• Cooling / heat rejection and high-density load strategies

• Proven track record delivering large, complex engineering/construction programs

• Strong stakeholder management skills (tenants, contractors, AHJs, utilities, internal leadership)

• Able to work hybrid (3 days/week) from one of the client’s U.S. hub offices (West Coast preferred)

• Eligible to work in the U.S. without sponsorship
