We’re supporting a leading engineering and consulting organization delivering mission-critical, hyperscale data center and advanced infrastructure projects across the U.S. This is an opportunity to join complex, high-value builds where quality, resilience, and precision matter and where your expertise directly impacts successful commissioning outcomes.
If you’re a hands-on QA/QC leader with deep MEP and construction oversight experience in mission-critical environments, this role offers long‑term project exposure, autonomy, and visibility across some of the most advanced facilities in the country.
The Role
As a QA/QC Construction Manager, you’ll act as the owner/contractor’s on‑site advocate, ensuring all work meets stringent quality, schedule, and scope requirements. The role blends construction management, owner’s rep responsibilities, and strong QA/QC field leadership, with a core focus on L1–L3 phases (design validation, procurement, and construction).
You will not execute commissioning tests, but you’ll ensure every site is fully commissioning‑ready, with issues identified and resolved early.
Key Responsibilities
- Serve as the owner’s “eyes and ears” on site, ensuring alignment with project QA/QC specifications and program standards
- Proactively identify, elevate, and resolve quality risks to maintain schedule and commissioning readiness
- Coordinate across owners, designers, contractors, vendors, and trade partners
- Support contract administration, compliance, and scope clarification where quality issues arise
