ABOUT THE ROLE:
We are hiring skilled Electricians to support the installation, maintenance, and commissioning of mission-critical electrical systems for xAI’s data centers. You will work on high-voltage and medium-voltage power distribution, backup power systems, grounding, lighting, and process power in a fast-paced, high-stakes environment where uptime and safety are paramount.
This is a hands-on role ideal for experienced journeyman electricians who thrive in industrial or data center settings and want to contribute directly to groundbreaking AI infrastructure.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Install, terminate, and test electrical systems including underground duct banks, conduits, cable pulling, switchgear, transformers, generators, UPS systems, PDUs, busways, and grounding.
- Perform maintenance, troubleshooting, and repairs on low- and medium-voltage power distribution systems.
- Support commissioning activities: point-to-point checks, functional testing, megger testing, and system energization.
- Read and interpret electrical drawings, schematics, one-line diagrams, and specifications.
- Ensure full compliance with NEC, NFPA 70E, OSHA, and xAI safety & quality standards (including LOTO and arc flash protocols).
- Collaborate with contractors, engineers, and operations teams to deliver projects on time with zero incidents.
- Participate in constructibility reviews and provide field feedback to improve designs.
- Maintain accurate documentation, as-builts, and test records.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
- Journeyman Electrician license (or equivalent) with 2+ years of hands-on experience in industrial, commercial, or mission-critical electrical work (data centers, power plants, or large facilities preferred).
- Strong knowledge of electrical systems up to 480V (medium/high voltage experience a big plus).
- Proficiency with test equipment (multimeters, meggers, power quality analyzers, etc.).
- Ability to read blueprints and electrical diagrams.
- Current OSHA 10/30 training and strong safety mindset.
- Willingness to work flexible hours, including nights, weekends, and extended shifts during critical builds or commissioning.
- Ability to lift 50+ lbs, climb ladders, and work in industrial environments with PPE.
PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:
- Experience with data center or hyperscale power infrastructure (redundant UPS, generators, busway systems).
- NETA certification, NICET, or equivalent.
- Knowledge of PLC/controls, SCADA, or variable frequency drives.
- Prior work on large-scale construction projects.
