Job summary

Luster National in Mill Valley seeks Senior Schedulers to support large heavy civil programs, reviewing schedules, testing plans, and quantifying delays in time and money. You’ll guide integrated master schedules across design, procurement, and construction with a focus on defensible, data-driven results.

Expect to mentor junior schedulers, enforce governance, and use tools like Primavera P6 and MS Project to drive contingencies.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering (civil, construction, transportation, systems or related).
• 10+ years of scheduling experience for large, complex heavy-civil infrastructure projects (>$500M).
• Experience with full CPM baseline schedule development, resource or cost loading, progress updating, and variance analysis.
• Experience evaluating time extension requests or Time Impact Analyses and documenting a position on delay and entitlement.
• Ability to interpret project scope, drawings, and constraints and translate them into logic-driven, sequenced, resource-aware schedules.
• Proficiency with industry standard project, construction, and risk management software (e.g., Primavera P6, TILOS, MS Project, Primavera Risk, Acumen Fuse).
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite/Office 365 (Outlook, Teams, Word, PowerPoint).

Responsibilities

• Build and maintain the integrated program master schedule across design, procurement, third-party, and construction contracts.
• Review baseline submittals and monthly updates for logic, durations, calendars, float, and resource or cost loading.
• Verify progress against field records and inspection documentation; challenge unsupported gains before payments or milestones.
• Run critical path, longest path, and what-if analyses to test sequencing, recovery, and acceleration.
• Evaluate time extension requests and Time Impact Analyses; issue determinations on entitlement and float ownership.
• Perform forensic schedule analysis on delays using as-planned vs as-built methods; document findings for negotiation and audit.
• Perform schedule-risk assessments and quantify exposure using Monte Carlo simulations; track mitigations to closure.
• Integrate third-party interfaces, permitting, right of way, utilities relocations, and long-lead procurement.
• Generate narrative reports, look-aheads, S-curves, and KPI dashboards for leadership and oversight bodies.
• Enforce schedule governance, maintain data integrity in scheduling tools, and mentor junior schedulers.
