Facilities Project Manager

About the company

Torus is headquartered in Utah and is expanding manufacturing at our 545,000-square-foot facility in Salt Lake City called GigaOne. We are the world’s first mesh energy infrastructure, uniting communities through resilient, sustainable, and intelligent power. We design, engineer, manufacture, install, and support our systems end-to-end, standing behind them throughout their lifecycle. Torus systems help reduce costs, lower emissions, and protect facilities from outages, while strengthening the security and reliability of the broader utility grid. Torus is committed to American manufacturing, engineering excellence, and building energy systems that last.

Torus has raised over $267 million from investors like Magnetar, Mercado, ICONIQ and Origin Ventures. The investments are helping to accelerate deployment of modular power plants across utilities, data centers, and industrial sectors. This investor confidence reflects the strength of our team, technology, and the scale of the problem we are solving. At Torus, you will be part of something larger than a single product or technology. Your work will help build energy infrastructure that supports and strengthens our electrical grid, critical systems, industry, and communities for decades to come. We value accountability, collaboration, and clear thinking. We are looking for people who want to solve hard problems and build things that matter.

About the role

The Facilities Project Manager will bring structure, visibility, and execution discipline to Torus’s facilities and infrastructure work. This role will lead complex facilities projects across our Salt Lake GigaOne Headquarters and South Salt Lake sites, including equipment installs, infrastructure upgrades, utilities coordination, and manufacturing support initiatives. You will partner closely with facilities, fabrication, engineering, production, and leadership teams to evaluate project needs, align stakeholders, and build clear execution plans. This role is critical to helping Torus scale manufacturing responsibly by improving planning, reducing reactive work, and ensuring facility resources can support business priorities.

You bring order to fast-moving, ambiguous environments and know how to create structure without slowing teams down. You are highly organized, detail-oriented, and proactive in identifying risks, dependencies, and resource constraints. You communicate clearly with stakeholders at every level, from technicians and engineers to C-suite leaders. You are comfortable operating in a hands-on industrial environment and can work across facilities, manufacturing, and engineering functions. You are confident driving follow-through, facilitating reviews, and keeping teams aligned on scope, timing, and priorities.
