  • Mentor and develop emerging technical and project management talent

What We're Looking For

  • Licensed Professional Engineer (PE) with a civil or related background
  • Experience with data center or mission-critical facilities
  • Strong understanding of site entitlements, permitting, and infrastructure design
  • Proven ability to manage both project delivery and client development (ideally 50 / 50 split)
  • Excellent communication, negotiation, and leadership skills
  • Strategic thinker with an entrepreneurial, big-picture mindset
  • Comfortable leading pursuits and guiding multi-office teams in a flat, collaborative organization
  • Ability to travel as needed across project locations
  • Preferred

  • 1520+ years of engineering experience, with 5+ in program or project management
  • Experience managing hyperscale, colocation, or mission-critical facility projects
  • Familiarity with digital project management tools (e.g., ProjectWise, Newforma)
  • Strong presence in industry networks or professional organizations
  • Why This Role

  • High-visibility leadership position with influence across multiple regions
  • Flexible base location with hybrid work options
  • Base compensation north of $200K, plus performance-based bonus
  • Full benefits package including health, dental, vision, 401(k) match, and PTO
  • Collaborative, people-first culture that values autonomy, innovation, and mentorship
