Exciting opportunity to get in at the start of a new AI Data Center build in West Texas. A development partner runs delivery end-to-end: design management, procurement, trade contracting, and the field organization including the Site Lead. This role will serve as the Owner’s construction representative for that project. You will verify what is actually happening on-site, keep the owner informed with an independent view, and make owner decisions quickly so they are never the bottleneck. Data center experience is not required, big projects, fast delivery, and deep field experience are.
