• Coordinate drawing development across schematic design, design development, and construction document phases, ensuring documentation is complete, accurate, constructible, and aligned with established standards.
• Partner with security, product, IT, cybersecurity, and operations stakeholders to translate program and accreditation requirements into practical, repeatable construction solutions.
• Lead architects, engineers, consultants, general contractors, subcontractors, and vendors throughout project execution, serving as the primary point of contact and driving work toward agreed requirements.
• Review RFIs, submittals, change orders, and other construction documentation against design intent, project scope, schedule, and budget before approval.
• Manage permitting and approval processes, including submissions, responses to comments, and coordination required to protect project timelines.
• Track project milestones and proactively identify schedule, budget, design, procurement, construction, and delivery risks, developing mitigation plans before issues affect outcomes.
• Partner with Finance to monitor project budgets, validate changes, maintain financial controls, and ensure cost impacts remain visible throughout the project lifecycle.
• Establish and lead project meetings, status reviews, decision tracking, and accountability routines that maintain momentum and alignment across internal and external stakeholders.
• Enforce construction quality and consistency across sites, identifying field issues early and ensuring appropriate resolution before project completion.
• Drive project closeout activities, including punch lists, final inspections, documentation, testing, and operational handoff.
• Improve project management processes, tools, templates, standards, and workflows to make future projects more predictable, efficient, and repeatable.
• Make timely decisions in a fast-changing environment, balancing project requirements, commercial considerations, technical constraints, and incomplete information.
• Travel to project sites as needed, with travel potentially reaching up to 50% of the time.

• 7–10 years of project management experience within construction, architecture, engineering, or a closely related field, with direct responsibility for design coordination and construction execution.
• Demonstrated experience managing drawing sets through schematic design, design development, and construction documentation phases, including constructability review.
• Proven experience managing contractors and vendors and overseeing RFIs, submittals, change orders, schedules, and project specifications.
• Working knowledge of permitting and approval processes and the ability to navigate requirements efficiently.
• Strong project controls experience, including scope, scheduling, budgeting, risk management, resource coordination, and quality oversight.

• Preferred experience includes high-growth or startup environments, particularly multi-site or repeatable construction programs.
• Experience with secured, classified, defense, national security, or other specialized infrastructure environments is advantageous.
• Proximity to a major airport is preferred due to the travel requirements.
• Relevant certifications such as PMP, Cisco, Ruckus, Ekahau, networking, construction management, or related project management credentials are a plus.

• Competitive base salary of $140,000–$170,000 USD.
• Remote or hybrid working arrangements.
• Opportunity to lead high-impact design and construction projects supporting secure and mission-critical environments.
• Significant ownership and autonomy as an individual contributor.
