About the role

Role focused on day-to-day execution for CoreWeave’s self-development data center sites, managing integrated schedules, budgets, risk, and cross-functional coordination from acquisition through construction handoff.

Responsibilities

  • Manage integrated project delivery for assigned self-development sites from acquisition through construction handoff, coordinating internal functions and external parties against milestones and deliverables.
  • Build and maintain the integrated project schedule, including the critical path, milestone exit criteria, dependencies, and deliverables across contributing teams.
  • Maintain the Owner’s Budget through handoff, including cash flow forecasting, variance reporting against approved capital, and escalation of changes requiring approval.
  • Coordinate entitlement and permitting workstreams with development leads and external consultants, maintaining the permit matrix, submittal schedule, and approval dependencies, and supporting AHJ relationships.
  • Coordinate diligence and closing workstreams with Legal and technical leads—including title, survey, geotechnical, and environmental reviews—tracking conditions precedent through satisfaction or approved waiver.
  • Coordinate delivery across Design, Construction, Power, Legal, EHS, and Corporate Affairs and Government Affairs, running site meetings and maintaining action logs with named owners and dated commitments.
  • Maintain the site risk register, track mitigation actions with named owners, and escalate issues against defined thresholds.
  • Prepare executive-facing status reports and maintain a consistent source of truth across project trackers, pipeline reporting, and site records.
  • Coordinate pre-construction consultant scope, onboarding, statements of work, purchase orders, and invoice validation within established approval processes.
  • Coordinate handoff to Construction against defined exit criteria: site control closed; permits secured or sequenced with dated approvals; budget and schedule baselined; risk register transferred with named owners; required utility agreements executed; documentation and system access transferred.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of relevant project or program management experience in data center, mission-critical, or large-scale capital development, preferably on the owner’s side.
  • Demonstrated ownership of significant pre-construction workstreams, including integrated schedule management and budget tracking for land acquisition, site development, or construction readiness.
  • Working knowledge of entitlement and permitting processes, including AHJ submittals and approval sequencing.
  • Experience coordinating due diligence workstreams—including title, survey, geotechnical, and environmental reviews—and tracking closing requirements.
  • Proven ability to drive follow-through on agreed deliverables across internal teams and external parties without direct authority.
  • Proficiency with project controls and reporting tools such as Smartsheet, Microsoft Project, Primavera P6, or equivalent, and the ability to turn project information into clear executive reporting.
