The Job

The Site Commissioning and Turnover Manager is the site-specific Operations Engineering representative responsible for monitoring commissioning completion, coordinating technical assurance, and preparing an assigned facility for turnover to Operations Engineering and Site Operations.

The role is embedded in the onsite commissioning process from construction readiness through Level 1 activities, functional testing, Integrated Systems Testing, phased capacity release, and final turnover. Site Development retains responsibility for project delivery, daily commissioning execution, contractor direction, and management of its third-party commissioning agent. This position verifies progress and evidence, coordinates national Operations Engineering resources, tracks gaps through closure, and escalates conditions that could prevent acceptance.

Responsibilities

• Serve as the primary onsite Operations Engineering liaison for commissioning, startup, testing, and turnover activities with Site Development, commissioning teams, contractors, vendors, Site Operations, and customers.
• Maintain an integrated view of system boundaries, commissioning milestones, testing activities, risks, dependencies, and acceptance requirements through final turnover.
• Review commissioning plans, procedures, test scripts, safety controls, temporary operating conditions, and restoration plans to ensure alignment with Operations Engineering requirements.
• Coordinate participation of Operations Engineering discipline leads and readiness stakeholders throughout commissioning and turnover activities.
• Attend critical tests, verify results are documented and traceable, and ensure technical issues are escalated to the appropriate authority.
• Maintain dashboards, action logs, risk registers, milestone forecasts, and executive-ready status reporting.
• Track deficiencies, punch-list items, failed tests, deferred work, documentation gaps, and readiness actions through resolution.
• Drive accountability for corrective actions, monitor due dates, and escalate unresolved issues or schedule impacts.
• Verify closure through inspection, retesting, approved documentation, or discipline-lead review.
• Identify conditions that may affect safety, reliability, capacity, maintainability, customer access, or operational acceptance.
• Coordinate readiness reviews supporting customer access, capacity releases, conditional turnover, and final acceptance.
• Verify completion and accessibility of required turnover documentation, including test records, as-builts, O&M manuals, training records, warranties, asset data, and open-item logs.
• Partner with Site Operations and Operations Readiness to confirm staffing, training, procedures, CMMS readiness, maintenance planning, vendor support, and emergency-response preparedness.
• Consolidate commissioning and turnover evidence into recommendations for release, conditional release, or hold status.
• Support early-life operations, warranty management, and transition of remaining actions into operational governance.
• Manage commissioning assurance, readiness oversight, and turnover coordination activities for the site.
• Foster open, respectful, and professional communication directly within the team, with co-workers/ teammates, and leaders across the organization.
• Performs other duties as assigned.

Qualifications

Required

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Construction Management, Facilities Management, or a related technical discipline, or an equivalent combination of education and relevant experience.
• Seven or more years of progressive commissioning, engineering, construction, startup, or critical-facility operations experience, including at least five years supporting data centers or other mission-critical facilities.
• Experience coordinating multidisciplinary commissioning, functional testing, Integrated Systems Testing, deficiency management, phased release, and turnover.
• Working knowledge of electrical, mechanical, controls, fire and life-safety, security, network, and monitoring system dependencies.
• Experience with commissioning schedules, readiness gates, test procedures, change control, live-site work, turnover documentation, training, and operational acceptance.
• Ability to maintain field presence, manage competing priorities, drive action closure through influence, and communicate with field and executive stakeholders.

Preferred

• Experience commissioning high-density or liquid-cooled data centers or similarly complex facilities.
• Credential such as BCxP, CCP, CxA, PMP, CFM, or equivalent.
• Experience with commissioning-management, document-control, scheduling, dashboard, CMMS, and asset-data platforms.
• Experience with Early Customer Access, phased capacity release, live-site expansion, or customer delivery.
