Job description

About Overwatch Construction

Overwatch is a service-disabled Veteran-owned small business (SDVOB) certified through the national veterans business development council (NVBDC), offering construction professional services, talent acquisition, and general contractor for the mission-critical infrastructure industry.

Our mission is the construction and management of state-of-the-art data centers with the precision and reliability this industry demands. From high-end engineers to seasoned professionals, we deploy the people you need to get your data center off the ground. At Overwatch, it's more than a job. It's purpose.

Role Overview

The Site OFE Coordinator is the central point of contact for all Owner Furnished Equipment (OFE) on-site. This role ensures that multi-million dollar equipment—critical to data center operations is accurately tracked, communicated, and delivered without delaying the construction schedule. You act as the primary liaison between the vendors, the General Contractor (GC), and the Owner’s project team.

Key Responsibilities

1. Stakeholder & Vendor Coordination

• Primary Interface: Serve as the main link between equipment vendors and the site-level GC management team.
• Meeting Leadership: Lead weekly Site OFE Meetings to ensure all parties are aligned on delivery dates and installation requirements.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Coordinate off-site equipment activities with the GC and subcontractors to ensure site readiness.

2. Risk & Schedule Management

• Risk Mitigation: Proactively identify and elevate logistical or manufacturing risks that could impact site progress.
• Schedule Oversight: Conduct regular reviews of the construction schedule to ensure equipment deliveries align with the "critical path."
• Delay Notification: Immediately notify stakeholders of potential vendor delays or quality issues and collaborate on corrective action plans.

3. Financial & Quality Tracking

• PO Change Management: Track and report on site-level Purchase Order (PO) changes, ensuring all financial adjustments are documented.
• Progress Reporting: Provide regular updates on delivery milestones and verify that arriving equipment meets all quality compliance standards.
• Document Control: Maintain accurate logs of all equipment-related correspondence and technical specifications.

Interview Spotlight: What Managers Are Looking For

1. Logistical Precision

• Managers want to know if the candidate can track hundreds of pieces of equipment simultaneously. Do they have a system for ensuring nothing "falls through the cracks"?

2. Conflict Resolution ("The Middle Man")

• This role sits between the vendor (who may be late) and the GC (who needs the gear now). Can the candidate navigate these high-pressure conversations and find a middle ground?

3. Proactive Communication

• The client doesn't want to find out there is a delay on the day the truck is supposed to arrive. Managers are looking for someone who identifies risks weeks in advance.

4. Technical Familiarity

• While not an engineering role, the candidate needs to understand what they are looking at (e.g., Chillers, Generators, Switchgear) to accurately report on quality or delivery issues.

Driver’s License Requirement:

For roles that require on-site presence or travel between work locations as an essential function of the position, candidates must possess and maintain a valid driver’s license appropriate for the role and be eligible to operate a motor vehicle in accordance with applicable laws.

Communication Skills:

Demonstrated ability to communicate effectively in a professional work environment, including preparing written reports and documentation, conveying information clearly to team members, clients, and stakeholders, and responding appropriately to verbal and written communications related to job duties.

Physical Requirements and Work Environment

This position operates primarily in an active data center construction environment, encompassing both indoor and outdoor work settings. The role requires the physical ability to perform essential job functions safely and effectively in a dynamic environment that includes ongoing construction activity and evolving site conditions.

The work environment includes areas and temporary structures owned, leased, or controlled by third parties over which Overwatch may have limited or no control. Because the project remains under construction, certain areas of the site - including access routes, staging zones, and temporary structures - may not yet fully ADA-compliant until construction is complete or those third-party areas be finalized.

Physical Requirements:

• Must be able to walk, stand, stoop, twist, bend, and climb stairs or ladders for extended periods while navigating uneven, unpaved, or obstructed terrain.
• Must be able to lift, carry, push, or pull up to 50 pounds on an occasional basis.
• Must be able to drive between job sites and access all areas of an active construction zone, including raised platforms, scaffolding, and confined spaces.
• Must be able to tolerate exposure to outdoor weather conditions, dust, and construction-related noise, vibrations, and odors.
• Must be able to communicate effectively with contractors, engineers, and site personnel, and maintain situational awareness in high-activity environments.
• Personal protective equipment (PPE), including hard hats, safety vests, hearing protection, and steel-toe boots, is required.
• Must have sufficient visual acuity to read drawings, specifications, and safety signage, and to observe site activity.

Work Environment:

Work is performed primarily in and around active construction areas, which may include unfinished buildings, temporary field offices, staging areas, and partially completed infrastructure. These locations may contain uneven surfaces, limited accessibility, and other conditions typical of construction projects prior to final completion. Overwatch does not control and cannot modify accessibility conditions within areas, facilities, or temporary structures owned or managed by third parties.

Reasonable Accommodation:

Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable qualified individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions of this position, provided such accommodations do not create safety hazards, impede essential mobility within active work zones, or require modification of facilities not owned or controlled by Overwatch.

Benefits:

We offer a competitive salary.

• Dental insurance
• Vision insurance
• 401(k) plan
• Paid time off
• Relocation assistance
