Data Center Project Manager
5 days ago
We are seeking a Construction Project Manager to facilitate the physical build-out of mission-critical data center facilities. This role is responsible for the hands-on management of specific project phases, ensuring that complex power, cooling, and structural requirements are met. You will bridge the gap between design and reality, ensuring that site work stays on schedule, within budget, and compliant with safety standards.
Core Responsibilities
- Site Execution: Lead the daily coordination of construction activities, focusing on the successful installation of MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) systems and structural components.
- Subcontractor Coordination: Serve as the primary point of contact for trade partners. Manage site access, workflow synchronization, and performance quality to prevent delays.
- Contract Administration: Oversee the lifecycle of site-specific contracts, including managing RFIs (Requests for Information), submittals, change orders, and project closeout documentation.
- Budget Oversight: Monitor project costs and field expenses. Ensure resources are used efficiently and that any financial variances are reported and addressed immediately.
- Safety & Quality Control: Conduct regular site walks to ensure that all construction activities meet rigorous data center quality standards and OSHA safety requirements.
- Risk Identification: Spot potential logistical or technical bottlenecks on-site and implement immediate corrective actions to keep the project on its critical path.
- Morning Site Walk: Walk the "white space " with trade leads to verify that progress matches BIM models and technical specs.
- Technical De-confliction: Facilitate "tailgate " meetings to ensure the structured cabling teams and HVAC crews aren't blocking each other's critical paths.
- Documentation: Reviewing RFIs and submittals to clarify technical requirements between design engineers and field crews.
- Milestone Tracking: Updating project schedules to account for the arrival of long-lead equipment like CRAH units or Backup Generators.
- Quality Inspection: Performing "punch list " walkthroughs of electrical rooms to ensure conduit runs and rack placements meet mission-critical standards.
- Sector Experience: 3-7 years of direct experience in Data Center construction, mission-critical facilities, or heavy-scale industrial MEP projects.
- Technical Foundation: Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Electrical Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent field-based experience).
- Build Knowledge: Strong ability to interpret construction drawings, electrical one-lines, and complex project schedules.
- Project Toolset: Proficiency in project tracking metrics and construction management software (e.g., Procore, Bluebeam, or MS Project).
- Communication: Ability to effectively communicate technical requirements to field crews and progress updates to project stakeholders.
- Required: Valid driver's license and a clean motor vehicle record for travel to various construction sites.
- Preferred Certifications: PMP (Project Management Professional), CAPM, or OSHA 30-Hour Construction Safety.
- Technical Interests: Familiarity with structured cabling, high-voltage power distribution, or industrial cooling systems.
