  • Resolve technical and scheduling issues related to commissioning and escalate critical risks or delays as needed.
  • Ensure implementation of safety procedures during commissioning activities, including LOTO (Lock Out Tag Out), energization notices, and risk assessments.
  • Coordinate handover processes from construction to operations, including punch list closure, final inspections, and signoffs.
  • Provide regular progress reports, status updates, and final commissioning summaries to project leadership.

  • Experience leading multidisciplinary commissioning teams and working with EPCs, OEMs, and utility partners.
  • Strong leadership, planning, and troubleshooting skills in high-pressure, schedule-driven environments.
