Your projects will often span offices, time zones, and hemispheres. It's your job to coordinate the players and keep them up to date on progress and deadlines.

In this role you will lead the design, construction, and delivery of data center projects in the region of North America. This includes campuses across the United States and planned future global expansions. You will act as a leader with a proven track record in managing construction projects within a changing, dynamic environment. You will oversee a team of Program Managers and Engineers, ensuring the successful execution of both new construction and capital improvement projects. This role will require a minimum of 50% onsite in remote build locations in West Texas.
