About oWOW

oWOW is a vertically integrated organization (construction, architecture, manufacturing & development) that accelerates housing abundance by delivering high-quality homes up to 65% below market cost in months, not years. We’re currently scaling our operations across California, with a goal of breaking ground on 2,000 units by the end of 2026. We are the team behind 1510 Webster, the tallest mass-timber tower (19 stories) on the West Coast.

Our next project is scheduled to begin in March, followed by another in May and October.

As a Senior Superintendent at oWOW Construction, you will lead the execution of high-rise, ∿300-unit, multifamily projects. You will take ownership of day-to-day field operations on builds that utilize innovative prefabricated systems, including heavy mass timber, 10 ft × 30 ft façade mega-panels, and componentized eccentric braced frame steel frames. These systems allow us to deliver significantly accelerated schedules and reduced costs, currently targeting 30% reductions, with a long-term goal of 50% reductions.

You lead on-site execution from groundbreaking through Certificate of Occupancy (CO), owning outcomes and thriving in fast-paced, high-expectation environments.

You are accountable for execution, coordination, and delivery of successful builds. We are looking for leaders with strong communication skills and adaptability, people who can respond to shifting priorities and provide clear, actionable field feedback that supports oWOW’s broader mission. This is not a role for passive managers.
