Job Title: Construction Manager – Data Centers (AI & GPU Infrastructure)

Location: Austin, Texas

A fast-growing, elite infrastructure platform working with the world’s leading AI labs, governments, and enterprises is hiring a Data Center Construction Manager to lead execution of next‑generation GPU data center builds across multiple geographies.

This is a hands‑on, owner‑side role for construction leaders who thrive in the field, move fast, and deliver complex projects under extreme power and cooling demands. If you’ve built hyperscale, semiconductor, or mission‑critical facilities and want to operate at the bleeding edge of AI infrastructure, this role delivers.

• Lead day‑to‑day site execution for greenfield and brownfield data center builds
• Build and drive integrated schedules (Primavera P6 / MS Project) across design, procurement, construction, and commissioning
• Enforce a zero‑incident safety culture across all contractors and trades
• Coordinate CSA and MEP scopes, resolving field conflicts in real time
• Track daily progress, cost, earned value, and resources; issue recovery plans as needed
• Oversee QA/QC, material submittals, RFIs, and change orders
• Interface closely with Design, Procurement, Commissioning, and Operations teams
• Develop scopes of work and technical exhibits for critical‑path trades
• Manage construction contracts from award through close‑out, ensuring budget, schedule, and spec compliance

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Construction Management preferred)
• 7+ years delivering hyperscale, semiconductor, or mission‑critical construction projects
• Deep understanding of CSA & MEP execution, procurement workflows, and cost controls
• Proven success on fast‑track, multi‑site or multi‑region builds
• OSHA 30 (or equivalent); strong familiarity with NFPA 70E, local codes, and permitting
• Strong field leadership and subcontractor management skills
• Ability to read BIM/Revit models and interpret IFC packages on the fly
• Willingness to travel 50%+ to active project sites

• Build GPU‑dense, AI‑driven data centers at global scale
• True site ownership — execution authority, not oversight
• Fast‑track projects with elite design, procurement, and ops teams
• Work directly on infrastructure enabling frontier AI development
• Highly competitive base salary: $130,000 – $230,000 (experience, location dependent)
• Equity participation as part of total compensation
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Retirement or pension plan (region‑aligned)
• Generous PTO policy
