Job description

The Company

Its goal is to scale and enhance the high-performance computing (HPC) and cloud infrastructure that supports its clients' research, production, and delivery, enabling breakthroughs that shape the industries of tomorrow. Its engineers build critical infrastructure to eliminate friction in scientific research, simulations, analysis, and decision-making, accelerating discovery and driving faster innovation.

The Position

We are seeking an experienced, hands-on Construction Superintendent to serve as the on-site field execution authority at our Spartanburg-based HPC facility. This role owns daily trade sequencing and schedule execution on the ground – directing the general contractor's field teams, resolving cross-trade conflicts, and driving the pace of construction across all trades.

The successful candidate will be the primary point of contact for field sequencing and schedule execution at the Spartanburg facility, coordinating daily with the GC's superintendents and trade subcontractors. This role reports to the Dallas-based Director, Construction & Commissioning, while working in close coordination with the Manager of MEP on system-specific installation sequencing, and with the Manager of QAQC & Commissioning on readiness milestones and site safety compliance, but holds sole authority for directing day-to-day field sequencing decisions.

Responsibilities

Schedule & Sequencing Management

• Own and maintain the master construction schedule; drive cross-trade sequencing decisions (rough-in, close-in, finishes) across all disciplines.
• Direct daily field coordination with the GC's superintendents and trade subcontractors; resolve sequencing conflicts before they affect schedule.
• Conduct daily and weekly site walks to verify work is progressing according to sequence and schedule.
• Maintain look-ahead schedules (2-week, 6-week) for all trades; elevate and resolve schedule-impacting issues in real time.

Field Execution & Site Management

• Enforce site logistics plans, laydown areas, and access control across active trades.
• Manage day-to-day labor, equipment, and material staging on site to keep crews productive.
• Coordinate with the GC on manpower loading and trade stacking to avoid conflicts in constrained work areas.
• Maintain daily field reports documenting progress, manpower, and any sequencing or schedule deviations.

Safety & Site Standards

• Enforce site safety plans and OSHA compliance across all contractor workforces; issue stop-work authority when safety conditions warrant.
• Partner with the Manager of QAQC & Commissioning to ensure installed work is ready for quality inspection at each phase gate.

Reporting & Coordination

• Provide regular schedule and field-progress updates to the Director, Construction & Commissioning.
• Coordinate with the MEP Manager on system-specific installation sequencing and equipment delivery timing.
• Coordinate with the Manager of QAQC & Commissioning on readiness milestones ahead of quality walk-downs and commissioning turnover.
• Present schedule status at OAC and stakeholder meetings as the on-site field execution authority.

Requirements

• 8+ years of hands-on field superintendent experience in commercial or industrial construction; mission-critical or data center experience strongly preferred.
• Direct trade experience – has worked hands-on in at least one construction trade prior to moving into supervision.
• Proven track record resolving complex cross-trade sequencing on live, active construction sites.
• Strong working knowledge of coordination drawings, RFIs, and construction documents across MEP, structural, and architectural scopes.
• Proficiency with Primavera P6, Procore, and BIM 360.
• OSHA 30 certification required.
• High school diploma required; trade school or technical certification a plus. Bachelor's degree not required for this role.
