Project Manager, HAC/Spark (MFG)

Crusoe•Brighton, CO

6d•$130,000 - $150,000•Onsite

About The Position

Join our team as a Project Manager for Hot/Cold (HAC) Aisle Containment and Spark Modular Data Center products, and take ownership of planning, organizing, and executing Engineered to Order (ETO) programs with precision and efficiency. HAC is high-volume, fast-turn, and configuration-driven — it demands a project manager who can run repeatable work at speed while holding cost and quality discipline. This role sits at the intersection of estimating accuracy and production reality. HAC programs are won and lost on material cost, scope delineation, and the ability to release clean packages to the floor quickly. You'll manage multiple concurrent HAC programs across design variants while carrying supporting scope on Spark MDC builds. Your work directly impacts our ability to deploy modular data center infrastructure that computes from sustainable, renewable and/or stranded energy sources. This is a strong growth role for a project manager ready to take on greater customer ownership within the modular sector. We are seeking a motivated professional with a background in construction, engineering, and/or manufacturing, strong cost instincts, and a bias toward getting clean packages to the floor fast. This is a full-time position.

Requirements

Experience in construction, prefabrication, or manufacturing product delivery with exposure to multi-disciplinary products.
Minimum of 5+ years managing projects within the electrical equipment, construction, engineering and/or manufacturing industry.
Bachelor of Science: BS in Business, Engineering, Construction Management. Closely related fields will be considered.
Demonstrated ownership of material cost performance, including takeoffs, BOM accuracy, and variance analysis.
Ability to read and interpret fabrication drawings, layouts, and structural/sheet metal detail, and to advise on risks associated with design decisions. We are looking for someone to add value from an “I have to build this” perspective to provide productive feedback to our engineering group.
Proven ability to manage multiple fast-turn programs simultaneously without loss of schedule or cost control.
Proficient with programs such as Smartsheet, MS Project, Monday.com or Primavera P6.
Proficiency in Google Suite and Microsoft Office. Experience with manufacturing ERP systems like SAP or Visual; experience with Acumatica is preferred.
Demonstrated ability to foster teamwork and influence peers, ensuring collaborative project execution.
This position is designated a safety-sensitive position and/or is located in a safety-sensitive facility. Drug and alcohol program participation is required.

Nice To Haves

Data center construction experience
Direct experience with data center containment, raised floor, cable management, or similar white-space infrastructure products.
Exposure to modular data center or prefabricated electrical building manufacturing.
Estimating or takeoff experience in a competitive bid environment.
Project Management Professional (PMP) or Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) certification.
Lean manufacturing or continuous improvement training.

Responsibilities

Manage concurrent HAC programs from award through fabrication, kitting, and shipment — owning schedule, cost, scope, and delivery commitment for each.
Manage HAC design variants and ensure the correct released design, BOM, and material takeoff drive each production release.
Own material-driven cost performance. Track quoted versus actual material cost, drive takeoff accuracy, and escalate variance with root cause — not just a number. You own the accuracy of your project cost model, maintain it to the PMO reporting standard and cadence, and sign the monthly cost-to-complete position that feeds the program economics review.
Coordinate scope delineation with customers and installing contractors. Clarify what ships, what is field-installed, and where responsibility transfers, and get it in writing.
Partner with Estimating on pricing support, quantity validation, and competitive positioning inputs for HAC pursuits.
Drive drawing release, BOM completeness, kitting plan, and shop packet quality before work orders open.
Manage shipment sequencing to match customer install schedules, including staged and partial releases.
Support Spark MDC programs with schedule maintenance, change tracking, and documentation as assigned.
Maintain change logs, risk logs, RFIs and submittmitals, and produce customer-facing schedule impact reporting for assigned programs.
Contribute to standardization of HAC estimating templates, BOM structures, and production packets to reduce cycle time per program.
Complete the project-level portions of the sector executive dashboard on the published cadence — schedule position, milestone status, cost and margin position, and open risk. Your inputs are what gets reported upward, so their accuracy and timeliness are yours to own.
