Basic Function

SB Energy is seeking a Manager with deep industry and OEM experience to lead supplier engineering and technical assurance for owner-furnished, contractor-installed (OFCI) power and cooling equipment. This role is part of a common Procurement Manager profile in which managers may serve as Electrical Procurement Lead or Mechanical Procurement Lead for a project, manage equipment packages across multiple projects, or lead shared sourcing, supplier development, planning, logistics, or technical assurance assignments as project needs and business priorities evolve.

Working with SB Energy’s clients, OEMs, vendors, and internal stakeholders, you will enable reliable equipment at competitive delivery speed, quality, and total cost of ownership (TCO). You will own OEM/factory technical qualification, manufacturing readiness assurance, and the common requirements and test-evidence system; turn product roadmaps into supplier readiness plans; and establish the evidence needed for fungibility and multi-sourcing.

The role requires depth in electrical OFCI procurement and supplier technical assurance, with flexibility to support broader power, cooling, commercial, logistics, and cross-functional priorities. Managers bring complementary strengths, maintain clear ownership, cross-train colleagues, and provide structured handoffs and backup coverage as assignments shift based on equipment knowledge, readiness, workload, and specialist support.

Responsibilities

Equipment coverage includes but is not limited to the categories below.

Power equipment

Distribution: MV/LV switchgear, ring main units, switchboards, panelboards, standalone motor-control centers/drives and power, distribution, and isolation transformers.

Packaged power: electrical skids, e-houses, modular power blocks, and packaged substations downstream of the HV substation.
Protection and monitoring: relays, metering, electrical power management systems, control panels, power-quality equipment, surge protection, grounding assemblies, and load banks.

Cooling equipment

Cooling and heat rejection: air- and water-cooled chillers, cooling towers, dry coolers, adiabatic/fluid coolers, and heat exchangers.
