Ideal candidates have 5+ years in infrastructure deployment, with strong data center, fiber, and network integration knowledge, and fluency in English for directing teams.

Responsibilities

• Own full execution of an assigned project or large multi‑phase scope — responsible for every crew and every outcome.

• Create and maintain daily and weekly work plans — not react to them
• Set task priorities and execution sequence based on project schedule and live field conditions
• Allocate and reallocate manpower across Leads based on real‑time project priorities
• Coordinate with the PM on progress, risks, schedule adherence, and change conditions
• Ensure all milestones and deadlines are met — escalates risk to PM before missing them
