Role profile

    Hiring MEP and electrical engineers

    MEP engineers sit between design intent and what actually gets built. As rack densities climb for AI workloads, the engineers who have worked liquid cooling and high-density power distribution are the ones every operator wants.

    Our screening

    What we check before a resume reaches you

    • Medium and low voltage distribution design, load calculations, and redundancy topology (N+1, 2N, distributed redundant)
    • Cooling design experience matched to your plant: air-cooled, chilled water, or liquid and rear-door heat exchangers
    • High-density and AI workload experience where the role calls for it
    • PE licence status, and whether stamping is genuinely required
    • Owner-side, design-firm, or contractor background — they are not interchangeable
