  • Strong command of project management fundamentals: scheduling (MS Project, Smartsheet, or equivalent), cost tracking, risk management, change control

What the job really is

As a Construction Project Manager at Giga, you will oversee the delivery of data center buildouts, managing everything from contract execution to commissioning. Your role involves coordinating with various internal teams and external partners, maintaining project schedules and budgets, and ensuring accountability among stakeholders. You will also be responsible for identifying risks and producing clear documentation for project reviews.

Benefits
  • Subsidized health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Equity (options) in a rapidly growing startup
  • 401(k) with 4% employer match
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Parental leave
  • Healthcare and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA)
Things to weigh
  • Remote work is possible but ideally based in specific locations (San Francisco, Long Beach, or Houston) with full-time onsite expectations outside of bi-weekly WFH Fridays.
  • The role requires a high level of accountability and ownership, which may not suit everyone.
