Job Summary

Site Infrastructure Engineer (RCDD)Construction and new builds — low-voltage design, program delivery, vendor oversightROLE SUMMARYOwns the IT infrastructure content of construction and lifecycle projects: new building deployments, network room build-outs, cabling projects, and refresh initiatives. Acts as technical authority to Facilities, architects, general contractors, and low-voltage subcontractors — reviewing designs, producing specifications, controlling scope and materials, and holding contractors to the standard. This is a design and program-engineering role, not an installation role; execution is performed by contracted trades under this engineer's direction.KEY RESPONSIBILITIESDesign and specificationPartner with Facilities, Network, AV, Security, and End User Support stakeholders to establish IT requirements for each project at the design stage.Review architectural, electrical, and low-voltage drawings against company standards; issue formal design comments and track resolution.Produce construction documents, specifications, and installation standards for low-voltage cabling contractors.Define equipment placement within network rooms — rack elevations and positions for network gear, security and BAS panels, service wall fields, pathway and containment routes.Specify pathway, grounding/bonding, fire-stopping, labelling, and testing requirements in line with TIA/BICSI standards and local code.Program and vendor deliveryDevelop ROM and BOM for new builds and refreshes; drive procurement of long-lead materials against project milestones.Oversee low-voltage contractors through installation, ensuring work is delivered to design specification and quality standard.Issue Statements of Work and detailed working instructions to vendors; review and validate submittals, RFIs, and change orders.Walk construction projects on a regular cadence and issue written site reports capturing feedback, defects, and corrective actions.Manage punch-list closure, acceptance testing, and test-result review (fibre and copper certification) prior to sign-off.Closeout and handoverCompile and record close-out documentation — as-built drawings, test results, warranty certificates, labelling schedules — and hand over to the operations team and end users.Ensure all newly delivered infrastructure is loaded into Netbox/Nautobot and CMDB before project closure.Conduct formal handover walkthroughs so operations inherits a documented, supportable environment.Capture lessons learned and feed improvements back into company  design standards and vendor specifications.Capacity and lifecycle engineeringMaintain a forward view of network room capacity — available ports, fibre strand counts, PDU outlets, rack units, and power headroom — and flag constraints ahead of demand.Plan and scope lifecycle refresh initiatives for cable plant, racks, and power infrastructure.Support regional power shutdown planning from an infrastructure design and risk perspective.

Key Responsibilities

REQUIRED SKILLS AND QUALIFICATIONSBachelor's degree in Information Technology, Engineering, Construction Management, or a related field, or equivalent experience.8+ years in low-voltage design, telecommunications consulting, IT construction project management, or structured cabling program delivery.RCDD certification (or actively pursuing) — this is the core credential for the design and specification scope.Working command of TIA-568/569/606/607, BICSI TDMM practice, NEC low-voltage provisions, and applicable local building and fire code.Ability to read and mark up architectural, electrical, and telecom drawings; proficiency with AutoCAD, Revit, or Bluebeam for review and redline.Demonstrated experience directing low-voltage subcontractors and general contractors, including SOW authoring, submittal review, and change-order control.Deep understanding of network room infrastructure — racks, containment, grounding, power distribution, cooling, and fibre/copper plant design.Strong written communication; able to produce specifications, site reports, and closeout packages to a professional standard.Comfortable operating with minimal direction in ambiguous, fast-moving construction environments.
