Issac Joseph A

• Leading T&C activities for HVAC, HSD, Fire Protection, and ELV systems in mission-critical data centers.
• Served as Site Coordinator for design projects to resolve technical issues and implement site modifications.
• Directed Integrated Systems Testing (IST) ensuring redundancy validation.
• Supervised preparation of test scripts, reports, and O&M documentation for client handover.
• Managed and mentored junior engineers and site teams, ensuring adherence to safety, quality, and project timelines.

HVAC Systems (Critical Cooling):

• Executed commissioning of precision cooling units (CRAC/CRAH), chilled water systems, VRF, and ventilation systems ensuring redundancy (N+1/N+N) compliance.
• Verified chilled water balancing, airflow management (hot aisle/cold aisle containment), and system performance.
• Performed functional tests of equipment under load bank conditions to validate thermal performance and reliability.

HSD Systems

• Executed commissioning of HSD storage tanks, day tanks, transfer pumps, and fuel polishing units ensuring continuous and reliable DG operation.
• Verified automatic fuel transfer sequences, interlocks, and integration with DG sets, BMS, and leak detection systems.
• Conducted flushing, pressure testing, and calibration of fuel lines, level sensors, and flow meters in compliance with NFPA standards.
• Performed functional tests under simulated load/IST conditions to validate system reliability and redundancy.

Fire Protection Systems (FPS):

• Commissioned fire pumps (diesel/electric), pre-action sprinkler systems, and clean agent suppression (FM200, Novec 1230, Inergen) specific to data center environments.
• Verified fire alarm cause-and-effect matrix including integration with BMS, HVAC shutdown, and access control systems.
• Conducted flow/pressure tests, detector sensitivity tests, and full sequence simulations in compliance with NFPA standards.

ELV Systems (Data Center Critical Infrastructure):

• Tested and commissioned Fire Alarm Systems and Public Addressing for critical security and monitoring.
• Conducted redundancy and failover testing for critical monitoring systems to ensure 24/7 uptime.

Building Management System (BMS):

• Performed point-to-point verification and commissioning of BMS for monitoring HVAC, power, fire, and security systems.
• Validated control logics for energy efficiency, alarm escalation, and automated response to fault events.

General Data Center Responsibilities:

• Coordinated IST (Integrated Systems Testing) with stakeholders to ensure compliance with Uptime Institute Tier standards.
• Prepared commissioning test scripts, T&C reports, snag lists, and O&M documentation aligned with client handover requirements.
• Collaborated with consultants, contractors, and OEMs during FAT, SAT, and IST stages to ensure reliability and redundancy of critical systems.
• Ensured strict adherence to data center safety, security, and quality standards during all testing and commissioning activities.

Held the role of HVAC Junior Engineer for 1 year and 4 months and HVAC Engineer for the role of 4 months, supporting the planning and execution of HVAC systems in various projects. Responsibilities involved preparing heat load calculations, static pressure and pump head calculations, design and drafting of chilled water and VRF systems, and providing technical follow-up on site progress.

Worked as a Trainee Engineer for 7 months, gaining hands-on experience in air-conditioning and ventilation system design, and supporting project documentation and technical calculations required for ongoing site works.
