The company
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.
The position
- 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
Could this role be for you?
- 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
Why apply?
- 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
