- Experience managing projects for hyperscaler data center clients (AWS, Google, Meta, Microsoft) or CDMO/pharmaceutical construction scopes.
- Familiarity with ASME BPE, FDA/USP hygienic piping requirements, or cleanroom-compliant fabrication standards.
- Experience with BIM coordination (LOD 400) and model-based fabrication workflows.
- Established relationships within the mission-critical construction, life sciences, or industrial construction markets.
- Experience supporting pre-construction estimating, proposal development, or design-assist engagements.
Responsibilities
- Lead end-to-end project management for modular skid assemblies, prefabricated pipe spools, and structural steel scopes serving data center and life sciences clients.
- Manage consulting engineers from owner provided performance spec. criteria to detailed design with a Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) approach.
- Develop and maintain detailed project schedules, budgets, and resource plans to ensure on-time, on-budget, and on-spec delivery.
- Manage multi-discipline buy-out to ensure critical path for fabrication of modular skids.
- Collaborate with Production, Engineering, Procurement, and QA/QC teams to sequence and optimize fabrication workflows aligned with field installation milestones.
- Proactively identify schedule risks, change order impacts, and resource constraints; develop and execute mitigation strategies.
- Manage RFI/submittal logs, drawing revision control, and material tracking throughout the project lifecycle.
- Conduct regular project status meetings and provide clear, data-driven updates to internal leadership, clients, and general contractors.
- Serve as the primary client-facing project lead, managing expectations, communicating progress, and resolving issues with professionalism and urgency.
- Coordinate closely with mechanical contractors, general contractors, and owner representatives to align fabrication release schedules with field pull plans.
- Support the development of change orders, schedule impact analyses, and contract documentation as required.
- Participate in pre-construction meetings, design reviews, and constructability assessments to provide fabrication input early in project development.
- Ensure all projects are executed in accordance with applicable industry standards including ASME B31.3/B31.9, AWS D1.1/D18.1, ASME BPE (for life sciences scopes), and client-specific quality requirements.
- Enforce safety protocols and regulatory compliance requirements throughout the fabrication and delivery process.
- Partner with QA/QC personnel to manage weld documentation, inspection records, hydrostatic test packages, and material certifications.
- Support audit readiness for hyperscaler and pharmaceutical clients with documentation-driven quality systems.
- Champion lean fabrication principles and work with the Production Manager to optimize spool release sequencing, labor utilization, and throughput.
- Contribute to the development of project management standards, templates, and ERP-integrated workflows to support scalable growth.
- Provide mentorship and project oversight support to junior project coordinators and field liaisons.
Benefits
- Competitive salary and performance-based incentives.
- Health, dental, and vision insurance.
- 401(k) with company match.
