About The Position

The team is seeking a high-caliber Senior Project Manager to lead the end-to-end delivery of Hyperscale Data Halls. This is a tenant fit-out (TFO) leadership position requiring a "boots-on-the-ground" expert who specializes in the high-density environment of the white space. The ideal candidate brings a minimum of 15 years of construction experience, with a mastery of modular construction and large-scale MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) integration. You will be responsible for the financial health and technical precision of multi-million dollar data hall builds where "zero-fail" execution is the standard.

Requirements

Minimum of 15 years in heavy construction project management.
At least 7 years of dedicated experience in Mission Critical/Data Center environments (this is a hard requirement).
Minimum of 2 years specifically managing modular data center builds or component integration.
Demonstrated field experience in MEP engineering; ability to interpret complex electrical one-lines and mechanical P&IDs is essential.
Proven track record of managing "highly detailed" projects where precision is the difference between uptime and a catastrophic failure.
Expert proficiency in Procore, Primavera P6, or Microsoft Project.
Must possess and maintain a valid driver’s license appropriate for the role and be eligible to operate a motor vehicle in accordance with applicable laws.
Demonstrated ability to communicate effectively in a professional work environment, including preparing written reports and documentation, conveying information clearly to team members, clients, and stakeholders, and responding appropriately to verbal and written communications related to job duties.

Nice To Haves

PMP or CCM certification is highly preferred but may be waived for candidates with exceptional field tenure.

Responsibilities

Lead the installation and integration of modular data center components, ensuring a minimum of 2 years of direct experience in modular/pre-fabricated construction techniques.
Oversee the specialized fit-out of the Data Hall, including the deployment of structural ceilings, cold/hot aisle containment, and high-density rack configurations.
Manage the complex electrical and mechanical "cut-ins," serving as the technical authority on high-voltage power paths and advanced cooling loops (liquid and air-cooled).
Manage the full financial lifecycle of the project, including multi-million dollar budget tracking, cost-to-complete forecasting, and complex SOW management.
Lead the procurement of long-lead technical equipment, ensuring that vendor delivery aligns perfectly with the construction critical path to avoid costly standby time.
Maintain meticulous RAID logs (Risks, Actions, Issues, Dependencies) with a hyper-focus on detail to prevent budget creep or schedule slippage.
Act as the primary bridge between design and the field. While a degree is preferred, you must demonstrate expert-level applicable knowledge in electrical and mechanical engineering to challenge assumptions and resolve onsite technical hurdles.
Serve as the lead point of contact for hyperscale tenants, ensuring their technical requirements are met without compromising the base building's integrity or timeline.
