About the role

Lead and deliver mission-critical data center projects from preconstruction through commissioning and turnover on the owner side, coordinating GC, design teams, commissioning agents, and vendors to ensure rapid, reliable facilities.

Responsibilities

  • Lead end-to-end project delivery for data center construction, owning cost, schedule, scope, quality, and safety from site selection support and preconstruction through Level 5 commissioning and operational handover.
  • Manage general contractors, architects, MEP engineers, and specialty subcontractors, holding the project team accountable to contractual milestones and design intent.
  • Drive coordination of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems — including utility power and substations, switchgear, UPS, generators, and air- and liquid-cooling infrastructure — recognizing that power and cooling drive the critical path.
  • Develop and maintain integrated project schedules, identify critical-path risks early, and implement recovery plans to protect on-time, on-budget delivery.
  • Manage project budgets, change orders, contingency, and forecasting; review pay applications and validate work in place.
  • Own the commissioning process in partnership with the CxA, ensuring scripts, levels (L1–L5), and acceptance criteria are met before energization and turnover to operations.
  • Enforce a strict safety culture, including hazards of energized electrical environments and live critical facilities.
  • Provide clear, regular reporting to leadership on schedule, budget, risk, and key decisions.
  • Manage long-lead equipment procurement and vendor coordination, mitigating supply-chain risk on generators, switchgear, chillers, and cooling units.
  • Support due diligence on site selection, including utility power availability, fiber, water, and constructability factors.

Qualifications

  • 7+ years of construction project management experience, with at least 3 years delivering data centers or comparable mission-critical / critical-environment facilities (hospitals, semiconductor fabs, pharma, or large-scale industrial).
  • Direct working knowledge of data center MEP systems: power distribution, redundancy topologies (N+1, 2N), UPS, generators, and air and liquid cooling.
  • Familiarity with the commissioning process and Uptime Institute Tier standards.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage multimillion-dollar budgets and complex, schedule-driven projects with multiple stakeholders.
  • Strong command of project controls, scheduling software (P6 or MS Project), and construction management platforms (Procore or similar).
  • Excellent contractor and vendor management skills, with the ability to hold teams accountable while maintaining productive relationships.
  • Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, or a related field — or equivalent field experience.
  • Willingness to travel to and be on-site at project locations as required.
