Job Summary:

We are seeking an experienced and results-driven Senior Project Manager to lead complex modular assembly and industrial pipe fabrication projects from kickoff through final delivery. The ideal candidate brings deep technical knowledge of prefabricated mechanical systems, a strong command of schedule-driven production environments, and proven experience serving mission-critical markets such as data centers and life sciences/pharmaceutical construction. This role requires a collaborative, solutions-oriented leader capable of managing multi-disciplinary project teams, coordinating with clients and general contractors, and driving continuous improvement across fabrication workflows.

Key Responsibilities:

Project Planning & Execution:

• Lead end-to-end project management for modular skid assemblies, prefabricated pipe spools, and structural steel scopes serving data center and life sciences clients.
• Manage consulting engineers from owner provided performance spec. criteria to detailed design with a Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) approach.
• Develop and maintain detailed project schedules, budgets, and resource plans to ensure on-time, on-budget, and on-spec delivery.
• Manage multi-discipline buy-out to ensure critical path for fabrication of modular skids.
• Collaborate with Production, Engineering, Procurement, and QA/QC teams to sequence and optimize fabrication workflows aligned with field installation milestones.
• Proactively identify schedule risks, change order impacts, and resource constraints; develop and execute mitigation strategies.
• Manage RFI/submittal logs, drawing revision control, and material tracking throughout the project lifecycle.
• Conduct regular project status meetings and provide clear, data-driven updates to internal leadership, clients, and general contractors.

Client & Stakeholder Management:

• Serve as the primary client-facing project lead, managing expectations, communicating progress, and resolving issues with professionalism and urgency.
• Coordinate closely with mechanical contractors, general contractors, and owner representatives to align fabrication release schedules with field pull plans.
• Support the development of change orders, schedule impact analyses, and contract documentation as required.
• Participate in pre-construction meetings, design reviews, and constructability assessments to provide fabrication input early in project development.

Quality, Safety & Compliance:

• Ensure all projects are executed in accordance with applicable industry standards including ASME B31.3/B31.9, AWS D1.1/D18.1, ASME BPE (for life sciences scopes), and client-specific quality requirements.
• Enforce safety protocols and regulatory compliance requirements throughout the fabrication and delivery process.
• Partner with QA/QC personnel to manage weld documentation, inspection records, hydrostatic test packages, and material certifications.
• Support audit readiness for hyperscaler and pharmaceutical clients with documentation-driven quality systems.

Continuous Improvement & Operations Support:

• Champion lean fabrication principles and work with the Production Manager to optimize spool release sequencing, labor utilization, and throughput.
• Contribute to the development of project management standards, templates, and ERP-integrated workflows to support scalable growth.
• Provide mentorship and project oversight support to junior project coordinators and field liaisons.

Qualifications & Skills:

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Construction Management, Industrial Technology, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• 7+ years of experience in industrial pipe fabrication, modular construction, or mechanical construction project management.
• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple concurrent projects with overlapping schedules and competing priorities.
• Strong working knowledge of piping systems, welding processes, modular assembly, and prefabrication methods.
• Proficiency in project management software (e.g., Procore, MS Project, Primavera P6, or equivalent) and ERP-based production tracking tools.
• Excellent communication, negotiation, and client relationship skills.
• Ability to interpret engineering drawings, isometrics, P&IDs, and fabrication specifications.
• Knowledge of safety regulations and quality compliance standards relevant to industrial fabrication environments.

Preferred Qualifications:

• PMP Certification or equivalent project management credential.
• Experience managing projects for hyperscaler data center clients (AWS, Google, Meta, Microsoft) or CDMO/pharmaceutical construction scopes.
• Familiarity with ASME BPE, FDA/USP hygienic piping requirements, or cleanroom-compliant fabrication standards.
• Experience with BIM coordination (LOD 400) and model-based fabrication workflows.
• Established relationships within the mission-critical construction, life sciences, or industrial construction markets.
• Competitive salary and performance-based incentives.
• Health, dental, and vision insurance.
• 401(k) with company match.
• Professional development and career growth opportunities.
• Paid time off and company holidays.

This role is well-suited for a technically grounded project leader who thrives in a fast-paced, growth-oriented fabrication environment.
