About the role

Responsibilities

  • Run construction operations across multiple concurrent gigawatt-scale sites: schedule, cost, quality, and safety in one view.
  • Set the operating rhythm between GCs, self-perform crews, and internal teams so blockers surface weeks before they hit the critical path.
  • Standardize the construction playbook across sites so the tenth build runs faster and cleaner than the first.
  • Drive constructability feedback into design and manufacturing so field problems get engineered out at the source.

Requirements

  • Run construction operations across multiple large industrial or mission critical projects at once.
  • Held GCs to schedule on jobs where the schedule was called impossible.
  • Read a P6 schedule critically and spot the float that isn't real.
  • Turned field lessons into standards other projects then had to follow.
  • Make decisions on incomplete information and own the outcome.

Nice-to-Haves

  • Data center or semiconductor construction.
  • Modular and prefab delivery.
  • Design-build contracting.
  • Self-perform experience.
