About the Position

We're seeking Project Schedulers at various levels for large, heavy‑civil infrastructure programs, including highways, roads, bridges, transit (including rail and bus), and airport projects delivered through both traditional and alternative methods.

You’ll craft logic‑driven CPM schedules, fold in procurement and third‑party dependencies, and convert field data into clear progress updates and forecasts. By surfacing critical‑path risks early, shaping recovery strategies, and keeping stakeholders aligned, you’ll help every project advance safely, efficiently, and on time.

This posting is for future roles and not for a specific opportunity that is available right now. We accept applications and conduct interviews in advance of upcoming hiring needs. When a candidate is selected, their profile is activated in our talent pool for this specialty area.

We notify our talent pool candidates first whenever we have a project need.

This posting targets Austin, TX.

Responsibilities
  • Build and maintain an integrated CPM schedule that covers design through turnover, with logically linked activities, resource or cost loading, and clear coding for cost‑control alignment.
  • Collect field progress data, update status weekly or monthly, and produce look‑ahead, variance reports, and earned‑value forecasts.
  • Run critical path and what‑if analyses to test sequencing options, recovery plans, and alternative delivery scenarios.
  • Perform schedule‑risk assessments, identify drivers, quantify exposure with tools such as Monte Carlo simulations, recommend contingencies, and track mitigation actions.
  • Support change orders and claims by preparing Time Impact Analyses that tie delays to cost and contractual entitlement.
  • Integrate third‑party interfaces, permitting, utility relocations, and long‑lead procurement items so the plan reflects all external dependencies.
  • Generate concise narrative reports, Gantt charts, S‑curves, and KPI dashboards for project managers, field teams, and executive stakeholders.
  • Enforce schedule governance standards, maintain data integrity in scheduling tools, and mentor junior schedulers to raise overall planning maturity.
Attributes
  • Excellent written and verbal communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Excellent multi‑tasking and organizational skills.
  • Collaborative mindset that fosters teamwork, trust, and positive relationships.
  • Natural curiosity, problem‑solving abilities, and a passion for continuous improvement.
Minimum Qualifications
  • Bachelor’s degree in engineering, construction management, or related field, or equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • 5+ years of hands‑on scheduling experience for heavy‑civil infrastructure projects.
  • Experience with full CPM baseline schedule development, resource or cost loading, and progress updating.
  • Proven ability to interpret design drawings, specifications, BIM models, and work‑breakdown structures and translate them into logically sequenced activities.
  • Experience conducting critical path and variance analyses, preparing Time Impact Analyses, and quantifying schedule risk using Monte Carlo or similar methods.
  • Proficiency with industry‑standard project and construction management software (e.g., Primavera P6, TILOS, MS Project, Bluebeam, RSMeans, etc.).
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite/Office 365 (e.g., Outlook, Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint).
Preferred Qualifications
  • Master’s degree in engineering or construction management.
  • Active professional certifications such as PSP (AACE), PMI‑SP or PMP (PMI), and/or CCM (CMAA).
  • Experience with large, complex, heavy‑civil infrastructure projects (>$500M) that include highways, roads, bridges, transit, and/or airport projects.
  • Experience delivering projects through both traditional and alternative methods (e.g., DB, CM/GC, P3).
  • Experience preparing and defending Time Impact Analyses, delay claims, and recovery plans before owners, contractors, and dispute resolution boards.
  • Experience performing advanced schedule‑risk assessments, including Monte Carlo simulations, P‑Factor analysis, and P50/P80 forecasting.
  • Proficiency in schedule risk analysis using tools such as Primavera Risk,…
