Manager, Electrical Infrastructure Engineering – North America, Global Energy, sustainability, and Automation

We are seeking a Manager, Electrical Infrastructure Engineering to lead the North America electrical engineering organization responsible for the reliability, resilience, lifecycle management, and technical performance of a large and geographically distributed portfolio of critical facilities.

This leader will own a broad portfolio spanning electrical infrastructure reliability and resilience, asset lifecycle and end-of-life strategy, capital retrofit programs, preventive maintenance engineering, power system studies, electrical monitoring and analytics, construction quality, commissioning, and emerging electrical technologies.

The role requires a leader who combines deep electrical engineering judgment with demonstrated people leadership and large-scale program execution. The successful candidate will be equally comfortable developing engineering strategy, reviewing complex power-system risks, leading managers and engineers, challenging capital investment decisions, managing vendors and contractors, and driving execution across hundreds of operating facilities.

This is not solely a technical engineering role. The Manager will lead a high-performing organization, establish priorities across a complex portfolio, develop technical and program leaders, and translate engineering risk into clear business decisions for senior leadership.

• Lead and develop the North America Electrical Infrastructure Engineering organization, including engineers, technical program managers, and people managers responsible for electrical infrastructure performance across a large, distributed facility portfolio.
• Own the regional strategy for electrical reliability, resilience, asset lifecycle, and infrastructure modernization, translating equipment risk and operational performance into multi-year engineering and investment priorities.
• Lead a portfolio of large-scale capital and retrofit programs, from technical strategy and business-case development through design, procurement, construction, commissioning, and performance validation.
• Own engineering strategy for electrical preventive and predictive maintenance, asset condition assessment, equipment deficiencies, and end-of-life planning across critical electrical systems.
• Provide leadership and technical governance for power system studies, power quality, protection and coordination, electrical monitoring, and infrastructure analytics.
• Establish and continuously improve electrical engineering standards, construction quality, acceptance testing, and commissioning requirements for new and existing facilities.
• Build scalable mechanisms that use equipment data, telemetry, failure history, and operational performance to identify systemic risks and prioritize engineering interventions.
• Develop and manage strategic relationships with OEMs, engineering firms, contractors, and service providers, including technical scopes, sourcing strategies, vendor performance, cost, and quality.
• Partner with Operations, RME, Design, Construction, Procurement, Finance, and other organizations to resolve complex infrastructure challenges and deliver programs at scale.
• Recruit, develop, coach, and retain high-performing technical leaders; establish clear accountability, succession plans, and mechanisms that enable the organization to execute independently at scale.
• Represent North America Electrical Engineering with senior leadership, translating complex engineering risks into clear recommendations regarding safety, reliability, business continuity, capital investment, and operational risk.

• Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering or equivalent
• 10+ years of experience in electrical engineering, critical infrastructure, industrial power systems, utilities, data centers, manufacturing, or similarly complex environments.
• 5+ years of people-management experience, including experience leading senior engineers, technical program managers, and/or managers.
• Demonstrated experience building, developing, and leading high-performing technical organizations.
• Experience owning large-scale electrical infrastructure, reliability, asset-lifecycle, or capital programs across multiple facilities.
• Strong technical knowledge of medium- and low-voltage electrical distribution systems, switch gear, transformers, generators, protection systems, and electrical maintenance.
• Experience with capital project development and execution, including business cases, design, procurement, construction, commissioning, and…
