Job Title: Construction Manager (Data Center)

Location: Austin, Texas (relocation packages available)

The company

I’m partnering with a leading global AI infrastructure company that designs and builds high-performance GPU data centers powering some of the most advanced AI systems in the world. Their customers include top AI labs, governments, and enterprise innovators — and they’re now expanding their footprint.

We’re seeking a Data Center Construction Manager to lead large-scale, high-density data center builds from the ground up. This role offers significant autonomy, visibility, and the chance to make a direct impact on cutting-edge AI infrastructure projects.

If you’re someone who thrives in fast-paced, technically complex environments and takes pride in owning projects from design through commissioning, this could be your next big move.

The position

• Oversee full-cycle execution of greenfield and brownfield data center construction projects.
• Manage contractors, vendors, and trades to ensure delivery on time, on budget, and to spec.
• Develop and maintain detailed project schedules (Primavera P6 or MS Project).
• Drive a zero-incident safety culture across all site operations.
• Coordinate CSA and MEP trades; proactively resolve issues in the field.
• Track progress, costs, and resources; prepare reports and recovery plans where needed.
• Oversee QA/QC, submittals, RFIs, and change orders.
• Partner with internal design, procurement, and operations teams for seamless handoffs.
• Administer construction contracts from award to closeout.

Could this role be for you?

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Construction Management, or related discipline.
• 7+ years managing hyperscale, semiconductor, or mission-critical construction projects.
• Strong understanding of CSA and MEP construction, procurement, and cost controls.
• Proven success delivering complex, fast-track builds across multiple locations.
• OSHA 30 (or equivalent); working knowledge of NFPA 70E, local codes, and permitting.
• Excellent leadership, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
• Ability to read BIM/Revit and interpret IFC packages.
• Willingness to travel up to 50% as required.

Why apply?

• Highly competitive total compensation (base + equity).
• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage.
• Retirement or pension plan (aligned with local standards).
• Generous PTO policy.
• Relocation support for qualified candidates moving to Austin.
