Senior Interface Manager - Multi-Subcontractor Projects

Bechtel Global Corporation; Chandler (AZ); On-site; USD 120,000 - 170,000; Full time

Job summary

Bechtel Global Corporation in Chandler, AZ is seeking an experienced Interface Manager to lead the identification, definition, and closure of interfaces across a large multi-subcontractor environment on the Fab 62/Intel project.

Responsibilities include owning the interface management plan, coordinating across engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning, and start-up, and ensuring alignment with the project schedule and turnover milestones at the Intel facility hub.

Qualifications

• Demonstrated experience managing interfaces in a multi-subcontractor execution environment, including scope splits and sequencing dependencies between concurrent contract packages, with direct experience across at least two project phases among engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning.
• Working knowledge of interface management processes, registers, interface control documents or memoranda, scope-split drawings, and division-of-responsibility matrices, including the ability to establish a functioning process where none exists.
• Ability to read and interpret a critical path schedule, link interface commitments to schedule logic and milestone dates, and influence without direct authority to drive contentious issues to documented closure.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, proficiency with document control and project collaboration systems used to issue and track interface documents, and ability to work full time at the project site and meet Bechtel and customer access, badging, and training requirements.

Responsibilities

• Interface Governance: Own the interface management plan as a component of the Project Execution Plan, together with the interface register, templates, and procedures, and deliver the training and workshops that keep project and subcontractor personnel applying the process consistently.
• Multi-Subcontractor Interface Management: Serve as the single point of accountability for interfaces among the project's subcontractors, defining scope splits through scope-split drawings and division-of-responsibility matrices, and securing formal agreement to physical and system boundaries, sequencing dependencies, and handoff criteria between contract packages.
• Cross-Subcontractor Coordination: Chair cross-subcontractor interface meetings and support area-based interface reviews with Area Superintendents, resolving competing sequencing, access, and predecessor-work conflicts between packages and escalating unresolved items before they affect the critical path.
• Functional Interface Integration: Define and maintain the interface points between engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning, and start-up, including battery limits, tie-in points, and system turnover boundaries, with need dates aligned to the field sequence.
• Interface Documentation and Quality Control: Maintain the interface register and the interface control documents and memoranda behind it, assign named Interface Owners and Approvers, review each new document for necessity, specific information requests, and realistic schedule-driven dates, and drive status from identified through defined to resolved, closing out on issuance of the confirming IFD or IFC document.
• Subcontract and Vendor Development: Work with Supply Chain and Contracts to embed interface requirements and division-of-responsibility matrices into bid packages and subcontract terms so each subcontractor is contractually bound to the process, and track vendor data, long-lead deliveries, and OEM field service commitments that gate downstream subcontractor and tool install work.
• Schedule Integration: Agree give and get dates for interface information, link interface resolution to design milestones and construction access dates in the integrated schedule, and quantify the impact of late or disputed interfaces.
