About INGEAR
Engineering clarity for complex infrastructure.
INGEAR is a founder-led controls and automation consultancy based in Austin, Texas, focused on AI data center controls and mission-critical infrastructure.
FOUNDER-LED ENGINEERING
13+ years across controls, electrical systems, and mission-critical infrastructure.
InGear is led by a controls and electrical engineer with 13+ years of experience across complex automation, electrical systems, SCADA, commissioning, controls integration, and mission-critical infrastructure. Experience spans the full project lifecycle from architecture and design review through FAT, SAT, commissioning, troubleshooting, and reliability improvement.
The background spans AI/data-center infrastructure, electrical and power systems, critical power, industrial automation, PLC and DDC systems, SCADA/HMI/historians, BMS/BAS/EPMS integration, FAT, SAT, commissioning, troubleshooting, and reliability improvement.
Clients work directly with senior engineering expertise on controls architecture, design review, interfaces, failure behavior, commissioning readiness, and difficult technical issues.

LIFECYCLE
Design through Reliability
CONTROLS PHILOSOPHY
Controls should be designed for operations—not merely startup.
Interfaces, failure behavior, alarm strategy, maintainability, documentation, and commissioning readiness deserve the same attention as individual equipment control.
01 / 04
Design for Operations
Sequences, alarms, trends, and controls behavior should support the people who operate the facility after turnover.
02 / 04
Treat Interfaces as Systems
Generator, UPS, switchgear, cooling, PLC, BMS, EPMS, and SCADA interfaces deserve explicit technical ownership.
03 / 04
Commission Before the Field
Senior design and readiness review can expose expensive commissioning and integration risk before formal testing.
04 / 04
Document for Reliability
Clear architecture, interface requirements, failure behavior, and turnover documentation improve maintainability.
FOUNDER-LED ENGINEERING
Direct access to experienced controls and electrical engineering judgment.
InGear is led by a senior controls and electrical engineer with 13+ years of experience supporting complex automation, power, SCADA, commissioning, and mission-critical systems.
That background spans AI/data-center infrastructure, electrical systems, critical power, PLC and DDC systems, SCADA/HMI/historians, BMS/BAS/EPMS integration, FAT, SAT, commissioning, troubleshooting, and reliability improvement.
Clients work directly with senior engineering expertise rather than having critical technical review automatically handed off through layers of staffing.

ENGAGEMENT
Direct senior involvement
DELIVERY MODEL
Remote-first. Project-focused. Senior-led.
Remote delivery keeps review, analysis, documentation, and advisory work efficient. Targeted site support is reserved for phases where direct observation and hands-on coordination add meaningful value.
REMOTE-FIRST
Deep review without unnecessary travel.
Design reviews • Architecture reviews • Code reviews • SCADA review • Documentation • Standards • Data analysis • Commissioning preparation • Technical advisory
TARGETED SITE SUPPORT
On site when the phase warrants it.
FAT • SAT • Startup • Commissioning • Troubleshooting • Integrated systems testing
Defined technical scopes — not permanent staffing, a 24/7 call center, or open-ended site coverage.
