  • Education: Bachelor's in Construction Management, low-voltage apprenticeship with hands-on experience or technical education/certification program, or an equivalent combination of education and experience (4 Years)
  • Interest in mission-critical and data center projects
  • Strong organizational skills and the ability to work within structured documentation and change control processes
  • Clear, professional communication with vendors, project managers, and internal team members
  • Willingness to hold self and others accountable to job site safety standards
  • Proficiency with Microsoft 365 (Outlook, Word, Excel) and willingness to learn project management software
  • Valid driver's license

Preferred Qualifications (Not required):

  • Experience reading and navigating large, complex construction drawing sets and submittals
  • BICSI credentials, or interest in pursuing them
  • Prior use of Construction Project management software, including Procore
