Data Center Construction Field Oversight Leader

Switch
Atlanta, GA
Job Description
Role Overview

As a Data Center Construction Field Oversight Leader at Switch, you will provide field oversight across active data center construction projects. You will spend at least 80% of your time at construction sites, evaluating execution against schedule, quality, safety, and operational expectations. This is an oversight role. Site teams and Construction Managers remain responsible for day-to-day project execution.

What You Will Do

Spend at least 80% of your time in the field at active data center construction sites. Assess General Contractor and vendor performance, including schedule, quality, productivity, staffing, coordination, and delivery against commitments. Conduct regular site walks, field observations, audits, and performance reviews to identify risks and execution gaps.

Why It Might Be a Fit

You seek input from the people closest to the work before reaching conclusions or recommending action. You communicate field conditions, risks, and decisions clearly, including when reported status does not match what you observe. You use sound judgment to separate isolated project issues from risks that require broader action.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of relevant construction experience, including significant experience with General Contractors and large-scale construction projects.
  • Deep knowledge of field construction practices, contractor performance, scheduling, quality, coordination, and construction risk.
  • Experience evaluating complex construction projects through direct field observation and performance data.
  • Experience identifying construction risks early and working with project teams to resolve barriers to execution.
  • Ability to assess performance across multiple projects and turn field observations into clear recommendations for senior leaders.
  • Credibility working directly with experienced Construction Managers, General Contractors, subcontractors, vendors, engineers, and operations teams.

  • Flexibility & Remote Opportunities
  • Career Stability & Growth
  • Generous Benefits Package
