Electrical Superintendent

Since 1886, Lewis has built some of the Pacific Northwest’s most important places: hospitals, research labs, schools, and data centers. Now we’re bringing that same excellence and care to data center work in Arizona. Plus, we’re 100% employee-owned, so everyone on our team has a stake in our success and a voice in where we go next.

On a data center, the day power first hits new switch gear is the day everything has to be right. As our Electrical Superintendent
, you make sure it is. The gear has been inspected, the sequence is planned, every crew is protected, and the client’s uptime is never at risk.

We’re hiring an Electrical Superintendent to run electrical field operations on data center and advanced technology projects in the Phoenix area. You’ll own the electrical side of the job in the field: power distribution, low-voltage systems, temporary power, energization, shutdowns, safety, quality, schedule, crew productivity, trade coordination, and site logistics.

You’ll be the link between the field, the project team, the client, trade partners, and commissioning agents, and the person they all count on to give it to them straight.

This role fits someone who has run large electrical scopes on data centers or other mission critical work, where uptime, safety, and sequencing aren’t negotiable. Maybe you came up through the trade, maybe through general contracting, maybe both. What matters is that you’ve done the work and led the people doing it.

You’ll be on site every day, your calls will shape how these facilities get built and energized, and as an employee-owner you’ll share in what we build.

In your first year, here’s what we expect to see:

• Your jobsite is safe, organized, and productive. Crews know the plan, work is coordinated, and commitments get met.
• Energizations and shutdowns go as planned, with no injuries and no surprises for the client.
• The client trusts you. They know you understand their uptime and schedule priorities, and they hear about problems from you early.
• Your foremen and assistant superintendents are getting better because you coach them, set clear expectations, and give them room to grow.
• Trade partners want to work with you again.

• Lead day-to-day electrical field operations, including power distribution, low-voltage systems, temporary power, energization, and commissioning readiness.
• Assign field and project team members so work gets done safely, on time, on budget, and right the first time.
• Build the schedule, keep it current, and hold the team to it.
• Bring field know-how to preconstruction: constructability, site logistics, phasing, and electrical sequencing.
• Coordinate electrical trade partners, suppliers, commissioning agents, the utility, and equipment vendors so issues get solved fast.
• Drive closeout, including punch list, turnover, and warranty handoff.

• Set the tone for safety on site every day.
• Walk the job, run safety audits, and deal with hazards on the spot.
• Build safety into the plan from preconstruction through execution.
• Plan the electrical work that’s unique to data centers: medium- and low-voltage distribution, temporary power, equipment setting sequence, energization, shutdowns, commissioning readiness, and work in live or sensitive environments.
• Perform pre-energization inspections, first-time energization, shutdowns, and energy control (lockout/tagout), working closely with the Energy Marshal.
• Check that installed work matches the drawings, specs, client standards, commissioning and turnover requirements, and Lewis standards.

• Coach and develop foremen, assistant superintendents, and field team members, and help them build careers at Lewis.
• Make training a…
