Project Manager – Data Center Construction | Travel

About the role

LINX is hiring a Data Center Construction Project Manager to lead hyperscale builds at project sites across the country. This is a full-time travel role, with travel making up roughly 75% to 100% of your schedule. Projects are long-term assignments, not short trips, and you'll typically be home about once a month while a project is active. Per diem, vehicle allowance, and cell phone allowance cover the cost of that travel.

• Project Planning and Site Coordination – lead project kickoff meetings, define project schedules, conduct site walkthroughs with clients and stakeholders, and adapt plans to site conditions, local labor market, and client requirements.
• Budget Ownership – own the full multi‑million dollar project budget (labor hours, shift costs, materials, equipment), track spend in real time, and flag variances before they become overruns.
• Materials and Procurement Management – coordinate with the LINX procurement team to order, receive, and stage equipment and materials before each project start; manage vendor and supplier relationships specific to each site.
• Workforce and Team Management – oversee scheduling, hiring, and performance management of installation technicians; build and lead project teams from the ground up at new sites as crews and conditions change.
• Change Management and Documentation – track project milestones, manage change orders throughout the lifecycle, and maintain complete, accurate project documentation from kickoff through closeout.
• Closeout and Training – deliver final project closeout, conduct client training at project completion, and facilitate post‑project reviews to carry lessons learned to the next site.
