> Lead end-to-end logistics operations for gigawatt-scale AI data center campuses, managing inbound freight, warehousing, inventory accuracy, and equipment delivery to installation crews while standing up operations at new sites and leading site teams.

## Job Description

## Role Scope
- Run end-to-end logistics for a gigawatt-scale data center campus: inbound freight, receiving, laydown yards, warehousing, inventory control, and delivery of equipment to the crews installing it.
- Stand up logistics operations at new sites from day one, with dock schedules, laydown plans, and material flow in place before the first major equipment shipment lands.
- Coordinate owner-furnished equipment deliveries across general contractors, trade partners, and freight carriers, and resequence on the spot when a truck, crane, or crew doesn't show.
- Implement material tracking that keeps physical counts and system counts matched across thousands of line items, so installation crews never wait on something already on site.
- Hire and lead the site logistics team as the fleet grows, and write the playbook every subsequent site runs on.

## Requirements
- Personally run site logistics on major construction or industrial programs: receiving, laydown, warehousing, and staging at the scale of truckloads per day.
- Coordinated deliveries across GCs, trade partners, and carriers, and resequenced a day's plan in minutes when the schedule broke.
- Implemented inventory or material tracking systems and kept them honest, with physical counts matching system counts through high-volume receiving.
- Handled oversized, high-value, or long-lead equipment (transformers, switchgear, chillers, generators) from carrier to final set.
- Hired, trained, and led warehouse or field logistics crews and held them to a safety and accuracy bar.
- Been the single source of truth on site for where material is, and installation crews planned around it.

## Nice-to-Haves
- Data center or mission-critical construction logistics.
- Heavy-haul and rigging coordination.
- Customs and international freight.
- WMS or ERP-driven material management.
- Standing up laydown yards and warehouses from a greenfield.
