QA​/QC Program Engineer

Prime Data Centers develops, acquires, and operates data centers for some of the world's largest enterprises. A private firm owned by a group controlling $6 billion in assets, with a 15-year tenure in technology and real estate development, Prime provides customers with ownership options and dynamic leasing models, defining a true corporate partnership.

The Quality Assurance/ Quality Control (QA/QC) Program Engineerserves as the quality authority across the full equipment lifecycle — from factory floor through energization, integrated systems testing, and turnover to Operations. The QA Engineer role owns the verification chain that confirms every piece of Owner Furnished / Contractor Installed (OFCI) equipment is built, tested, documented, tagged, installed, and turned over exactly as specified in the approved submittals and drawings.

Working in close partnership with Procurement, Engineering, Commissioning, Construction, the General Contractor (GC), and Site Engineering, theQEmanages the factory witness and acceptance test program, performsaudits of documentation, drives Root Cause Analysis and enforces accountability against the construction and commissioning plans. The position is fundamentally an Objective Quality Evidence (OQE) role: findings must be documented, traceable, and pursued to 100% closure — notobservedand set aside.
