About The Position
SpaceX is hiring a senior construction lead to own the fiber scope for its Memphis, Tennessee data center. The role manages site relationships, vendors, and delivery outcomes, with work spanning fiber optic backbone and horizontal cabling, pathways, splicing, testing, certification, and handover documentation. The construction manager is expected to be present on site, walk the work, and remove obstacles to progress. Future projects may be located at other U.S. construction sites, and relocation may be required depending on those locations. The position reports to central construction leadership, though the reporting line may shift as the project evolves. The role works with internal and external stakeholders and cross-functional teams to align fiber delivery with infrastructure goals, commissioning, schedule, quality, safety, and operational readiness.
Requirements
- At least 5 years of experience managing data center or construction projects.
- Excellent problem-solving, communication, and organizational skills.
- Proficiency with computers, fiber management software, and electronic testing systems.
- Available to work evenings and weekends as schedules vary with site operational needs.
- Must be comfortable working in an environment requiring exposure to noise.
- Ability to lift at least 25 lbs.
- Willingness to travel as needed.
- Willingness to relocate depending on additional construction locations within the U.S.
Nice To Haves
- Experience managing large-scale data center or mission-critical construction projects.
- Fiber optics and/or cable installation certification, such as FOA, BICSI, or equivalent.
- Advanced expertise in fiber splicing, OTDR testing, and certification procedures.
- Deep technical knowledge of hyperscale data center networking, structured cabling, and fiber infrastructure.
- Experience in AI/HPC data centers or other mission-critical facilities.
- High proficiency using a light meter, OTDR, OPMs, fiber certifier, loopback, and optical probes.
- Knowledge of fiber types, proper cleaning and validation techniques, switches, and port identifications.
- Deep expertise in construction management, commissioning, and site operations.
- Proven ability to lead on-site with authority and build trust with vendors, partners, and technical teams.
- Experience managing large programs with multiple vendors and dynamic priorities.
- Strong communication across disciplines, from field updates to technical escalations.
- Ability to solve complex, real-time problems with adaptability and composure.
- Previous experience in data center construction or highly technical facilities.
- Familiarity with local Memphis building codes and regulations.
- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to handle complex construction challenges.
Responsibilities
- Serve as the senior construction representative for the Memphis data center fiber scope and manage relationships with contractors, partners, and internal stakeholders.
- Oversee fiber execution from pre-construction and site development through testing, certification, and handover.
- Coordinate vendors to keep field and technical teams aligned on fiber backbone, horizontal cabling, pathways, splicing, and testing.
- Identify and mitigate risks to quality, safety, system integrity, and operational readiness.
- Drive fiber-scope progress, resolve roadblocks, and help maintain the schedule.
- Align the fiber schedule with SpaceXSI infrastructure goals through cross-functional collaboration.
- Partner with teams on commissioning and resolve issues as they arise.
- Provide regular updates, KPIs, and dashboards to internal and external stakeholders.
- Ensure work meets the technical and quality standards in the base design.
- Perform quantity take-offs and field verifications to track progress and support reporting.
- Manage change orders, eliminate unnecessary changes, and control cost.
- Lead site safety for fiber installation, splicing, testing, and work at heights.
- Support cross-functional partners as project needs require.
