Project Manager (Data Center)
Position Overview
We are seeking an experienced Construction Manager to oversee the fit-out of hyperscale data center white space within colocation environments. This role is responsible for managing all aspects of tenant fit-out construction, including coordination of trades, sequencing of work, quality control, and delivery of mission-critical infrastructure.
The ideal candidate has strong construction management experience in data centers, with a solid understanding of white space infrastructure such as containment systems, overhead conveyance (including ladder racks and cable tray systems), structural support frameworks, and cooling components (HVAC).

This is a full-time salaried position offering competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits, paid time off, paid training and performance-based bonuses.
This position is based in the Atlanta metro area and will work onsite for local data center projects. Approximately 50% travel outside of the Georgia area should be expected at times.
