• Deliver the full lifecycle of physical and electronic security elements within data centre and critical infrastructure projects.
• Oversee technical installation quality, system integration accuracy, device placement, panel wiring, and alignment to global standards.
• Support site surveys, verify existing conditions, and collaborate with local teams to scope and document technical requirements.
• Serve as the on‑site embedded security representative, collaborating closely with construction, MEP, and infrastructure teams.
• Conduct regular on‑site reviews to validate installation progress, sequencing, and technical compliance.
• Engage directly with integrators and contractors to resolve issues and accelerate progress.
• Lead functional testing of ACS, VMS, IDS, intercoms, sensors, physical hardware, and failover behaviour.
• Verify door functionality (REX, DPS), camera behaviour, alarm routing, network logic paths, redundancy, and event visibility.
• Document results, identify defects, and coordinate remediation through re‑testing and sign‑off.
• Witness and validate commissioning performed by integrators. Verify system responses, alarms, behaviour, and integration points, ensuring readiness for handover.
