  • Ensure that all commissioning documentation (method statements, checklists, protocols, test reports) are complete, accurate, and properly filed.
  • 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.

  • At least 8–10 years of experience in testing and commissioning of large-scale power generation or transmission systems; experience in solar PV and BESS projects is preferred.
  • In-depth knowledge of commissioning standards, testing protocols, and grid interconnection requirements in the Philippines (e.g., NGCP, ERC, PEC).
  • 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.
  • Familiarity with SCADA systems, protection relays, and automation protocols is a strong advantage.
