# Project Overview:

Fab 62 is an advanced semiconductor fabrication facility for Intel Corporation, located at Intel's Ocotillo campus in Chandler, Arizona. As part of this work, the M&T team is responsible for delivering the engineering, procurement, and construction scope required to complete and finish-out a leading-edge chipmaking facility - a highly demanding environment where precision, cleanliness, schedule certainty, and coordination across thousands of craft and professional personnel are essential to success.

The project supports the continued expansion of domestic semiconductor manufacturing capacity, contributing to a more resilient technology supply chain while creating significant opportunity for the local Arizona workforce. Joining the Fab 62 team means contributing directly to one of the most strategically important construction efforts in the United States and helping deliver the infrastructure behind the next generation of microelectronics.

Job Summary:

The Process Specific Specialty Systems Commissioning Engineer serves as the senior technical authority and discipline lead for Fire and Life Safety Systems on large, complex, and mission-critical projects, including hyperscale data centers, semiconductor manufacturing facilities, and life sciences installations. This role focuses on operating, maintaining, and troubleshooting complex, automated control systems-such as PLCs, DCS, and HMIs-used in manufacturing or municipal utilities.

This role is responsible for planning, coordinating, validating, testing, and commissioning critical life safety systems to ensure compliance with applicable codes, regulatory requirements, project specifications, and operational objectives.

Within semiconductor facilities, the Life Safety Commissioning Engineer is responsible for the verification and integration of highly specialized systems, including fire detection and suppression systems, hazardous gas monitoring, smoke control systems, emergency communications, and related life safety infrastructure. The engineer ensures these systems function as designed and meet the stringent safety, reliability, and operational requirements necessary before fabrication facilities become fully operational.

Acting as the primary on-site technical lead for life safety commissioning, this position works closely with engineering, construction, operations, vendors, equipment suppliers, commissioning teams, and Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJs) to develop and execute comprehensive testing and validation programs. The role provides technical leadership throughout system turnover, integrated systems testing, regulatory inspections, and operational readiness activities to ensure all life safety systems are fully functional, code-compliant, documented, and ready for safe occupancy and operation.
