About AGI

Advanced Giga Inc. designs, fabricates, and deploys modular data center infrastructure for hyperscale operators. Our flagship products—the MDH (Modular Data Hall), MTCS (Modular Technology Cooling System), and MES (Modular Energy Server)—are factory-built, tested, and commissioned before they ever leave our facility. We are not a general contractor. We are an engineering-led manufacturer that owns the full lifecycle: design, fabrication, controls integration, factory acceptance testing, delivery, and on-site commissioning. Our clients include the largest cloud infrastructure providers in the world.

We are a small, high-impact team where your decisions directly shape outcomes on programs worth tens of millions of dollars. If you have spent your career inside large organizations and are looking for a place where your experience actually gets used—not diluted across layers of bureaucracy—this is it.

The Role

We are hiring a Senior Project Manager to lead the execution of modular infrastructure programs for our hyperscale clients. This is not a “track the schedule and send status updates” role. You will own the program from procurement through commissioning, coordinating across our engineering team, fabrication partners, equipment vendors, and client stakeholders to deliver on aggressive timelines.

AGI runs multiple programs on overlapping schedules with staggered fabrication starts, long-lead equipment procurement, factory acceptance testing, oversized freight logistics, and compressed on-site commissioning windows. You will manage the full production pipeline—not a single phase of it—and be the person the client calls when they need an answer.

What You Will Actually Do

• Own the master program schedule across procurement, fabrication, testing, delivery, and commissioning—managing interdependencies across multiple concurrent module sets
• Place and expedite combined purchase orders for long-lead equipment (busway, pumps, heat exchangers, VFDs, switchgear) within days of award, managing 12-18 week lead times across multiple modules and projects simultaneously
• Maintain regular on-site presence at our fabrication shop to monitor progress, workforce allocation, and quality—not from a desk, from the shop floor
• Coordinate factory acceptance testing (FAT) for each module prior to shipment, ensuring every unit is validated before it leaves the building
• Manage compressed commissioning windows with a dedicated commissioning team on-site continuously from first delivery through final turnover
• Serve as the primary point of contact for the client’s program management team—you will be the person they call
• Track and report cost performance against firm fixed price contracts—identify variances early, not after the fact
• Manage scope boundaries clearly—know what is included, what is excluded, and keep change orders documented
• Coordinate with AGI’s engineering team on design maturity, drawing releases, and any field-driven revisions
• Coordinate with third-party engineering consultants on interconnecting scope between modules and site infrastructure

Who You Are

• 15+ years of project/program management experience in industrial fabrication, modular construction, MEP systems, or mission-critical facility delivery
• You have personally led programs valued at $25M+ from award through closeout—not as a coordinator on a larger team, but as the person accountable for delivery
• Deep familiarity with MEP systems (mechanical piping, electrical distribution, controls/automation)—you can read a P&ID, understand a single-line diagram, and walk a fab shop floor without a translator
• Direct experience with factory acceptance testing, pre-fabrication QA/QC, and commissioning processes—ideally in a manufacturing environment, not just field construction
• Experience managing procurement for long-lead mechanical and electrical equipment with multiple vendors on parallel timelines
• You understand the difference between managing a construction site and managing a production line—and ideally you have done both
• Comfortable working with a small, senior team where there are no layers between you and leadership
• Excellent written and verbal communication—you will interface directly with Fortune 10 client program management teams

Preferred (Not Required)

• Experience in data center, semiconductor, or other mission-critical facility construction
• Familiarity with modular or prefabricated construction methods
• PE license or PMP certificationExperience with BIM/Revit coordination in a fabrication context
• Experience managing freight logistics for oversized modular shipments
• Bilingual English/Spanish (our primary fabrication partner operates in South Texas)

What We Offer

• Base salary: $160,000 - $200,000
• Ownership of your program—you set the processes, you build the relationships, you drive the outcomes
• Performance bonus tied to program delivery milestones
• Direct impact on a high-growth company at the intersection of manufacturing and critical infrastructure
• A technical leadership team that speaks your language (engineering-led company, not sales-led)
• The chance to build something from a formative stage—this is not a mature 500-person organization with established playbooks. We are building those playbooks, and the right person will help write them
