Job Description

Mission Critical Construction Manager – Data Center Projects (Northern Virginia)
Full-Time • Onsite

A leading provider of digital infrastructure and mission-critical construction services is seeking multiple Construction Managers to support ongoing data center retrofit and upgrade projects in Northern Virginia. These roles focus on Power Distribution Controls (PDC), Automated Control Systems (ACS), BMS/EPMS upgrades, and multidisciplinary renovation scopes within live data center environments.

We are expanding rapidly and have 20 open CM positions with start dates across January and February. Candidates ranging from experienced mission-critical professionals to recent Construction Management/Building Science graduates are encouraged to apply.
About the Role
As a Mission Critical Construction Manager, you will oversee internal crews and subcontractors on active data center sites, coordinating electrical, mechanical, structural, BMS/EPMS, and controls upgrade scopes. Projects range from small-scale controls enhancements to large, complex, multi-trade retrofit initiatives. This is not new-build construction—it is high-stakes, technical work inside live operating facilities.
Key Responsibilities
  • Lead internal field teams and subcontractors across mission-critical renovation and upgrade projects
  • Ensure all work is executed safely and champion a strong safety culture
  • Provide technical guidance in electrical, mechanical, structural, and controls scopes
  • Read and interpret one-line diagrams, P&IDs, BMS controls schematics, and electrical drawings
  • Support project planning, scheduling, documentation, and closeout
  • Deliver daily construction progress updates and coordinate with project management
  • Assist in RFIs, submittals, site logistics, as-built documentation, and bid/RFQ support
  • Coordinate site access, badging, and stakeholder communication
  • Participate in client and subcontractor site walks
  • Identify inefficiencies and recommend process improvements
Required Qualifications
  • 3–5+ years of Mission Critical/Data Center construction field management experience
    • Recent grads will also be considered for junior CM roles
  • Experience working in live data centers and managing crews in active environments
  • Strong understanding of electrical, mechanical, structural, architectural trades
  • Ability to:
    • Read/interpret one-line diagrams
    • Interpret P&ID and BMS controls diagrams
    • Interpret electrical drawings and understand power flow
    • Follow and coach LOTO procedures
  • Familiarity with BMS and EPMS construction, integration, and commissioning
  • Knowledge of construction safety and quality best practices
  • Strong multitasking, detail orientation, and problem-solving skills
  • Ability to work onsite full-time (6AM start) and travel when required
  • Ability to pass a background check (AWS background may also be required)
  • Eligible to work in the U.S. without current or future sponsorship
Preferred:
  • OSHA-30 certification
  • Prior experience with Power Distribution Controls or automated control systems
  • Experience supporting AWS data center environments (not required)
Why Join This Team?
  • Multiple openings with immediate start dates
  • Opportunity to work on high-impact projects for a major cloud provider
  • Ability to grow into PM/CM hybrid roles or technical controls-focused positions
  • Willingness to train Construction Superintendents into CM roles
  • Work within a long-standing digital infrastructure and data center delivery team
Please send your resume to hmccormick@selectek.net for consideration.
