This role ensures all systems are delivered according to project specifications, comply with local and international standards, and are smoothly handed over for operations.
Key Responsibilities:
1. Design Management
- Review and manage design development for all fire protection systems (e.g., fire suppression, detection, alarms, sprinklers, clean agent systems) and sanitary systems (e.g., drainage, plumbing, waste and water supply).
- Ensure designs meet data center operational requirements, local regulations, and international standards (e.g., NFPA, FM Global, ASPE, ISO).
- Coordinate with architects, MEP, civil, and structural teams to integrate fire and sanitary systems effectively in the overall design.
- Review consultant and contractor shop drawings, design submittals, and technical specifications.
2. Installation Oversight
- Supervise the on-site installation of all fire and sanitary systems to ensure proper execution, sequencing, and workmanship.
- Verify that equipment (e.g., fire pumps, panels, piping, toilets, drainage) are installed per approved drawings and technical standards.
- Resolve site issues promptly and ensure compliance with QA/QC protocols.
3. Testing & Commissioning
- Plan, manage, and witness the testing and commissioning (T&C) of fire and sanitary systems, including water flow tests, alarm system verification, functional tests of suppression systems, drainage and plumbing checks, and system balancing.

- Coordinate system training for operations and maintenance staff.
- Ensure a seamless handover of fire and sanitary systems to the facilities management team with zero outstanding issues.
Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Fire Protection Engineering, Building Services Engineering, or a related field.
- 5–8 years of experience in MEP or fire/sanitary system design and construction, preferably in data centers or critical facilities.
- Solid knowledge of NFPA standards, local fire codes, plumbing codes, and water conservation requirements.
- Experience in managing contractors, reviewing design documents, and leading commissioning activities.
- Familiarity with AutoCAD, Revit MEP, and project coordination tools.
- Frequently travel to others area or site constructions is required (Bangkok/Nonthaburi/Samut Prakan/Chonburi)
Key Competencies:
- Strong technical knowledge of active and passive fire protection systems and plumbing infrastructure.
- Excellent attention to detail and adherence to safety and quality standards.
- Capable of coordinating with multidisciplinary teams under fast-paced construction timelines.
- Strong communication, problem-solving, and documentation skills.
