KGO is seeking an experienced Construction Scheduler / Project Controls professional to provide Owner’s Representative scheduling support for large-scale hyperscale and mission-critical data center projects in the Portland, Oregon area.

This is a full-time, on-site position requiring five days per week at the project site in the Portland area. We are looking for a highly experienced scheduler who can work independently alongside project teams, general contractors, and key stakeholders while providing sophisticated schedule analysis and project controls support.

Key Responsibilities

• Create, maintain, status, analyze, and report on construction schedules.
• Review contractor baseline schedules and updates for accuracy, logic, sequencing, resource loading, and overall credibility.
• Perform Critical Path Method (CPM), Earned Value Management (EVM), Time Impact Analysis, and schedule QA/QC.
• Analyze schedule impacts associated with changes, claims, delays, and change orders.
• Develop schedule recovery strategies, work-arounds, corrective actions, acceleration plans, and schedule scenarios.
• Monitor contractor progress and identify potential schedule risks before they affect project delivery.
• Evaluate schedule-driven change orders, claims, and time-extension requests.
• Coordinate schedule requirements with construction, commissioning, controls, project controls, contractors, and other stakeholders.
• Review construction drawings, including MEP single-line diagrams, to understand scope, sequencing, and schedule impacts.
• Lead schedule reviews and clearly communicate schedule performance, risks, and recommended actions to project leadership.

Required Qualifications

• 8+ years of full-time professional construction scheduling experience supporting an Owner or General Contractor in a mission-critical environment.
• 4+ years as a Lead Scheduler on large-scale mission-critical projects.
• Mid-to-advanced proficiency with Primavera P6.

We are particularly interested in candidates with significant hyperscale data center experience who understand the demands of working on behalf of an Owner. The ideal candidate can independently evaluate GC schedules, identify schedule and sequencing issues, perform sophisticated delay and impact analysis, and translate complex schedule information into actionable recommendations for project leadership.

This position supports an active construction project in the Portland area and requires consistent on-site presence five days per week. Candidates should be comfortable working directly with project teams, contractors, and stakeholders in a fast-paced, mission-critical construction environment.
