Semiconductor MEP Field Construction Managers

Job Description

Job Description

AMTS is building an experienced Construction Management team to support a major semiconductor construction program in Boise, Idaho. Our team will oversee both Basebuild and Fit-Up construction activities across multiple phases of a complex semiconductor manufacturing facility.

We are seeking experienced Semiconductor MEP Construction Managers with a strong background in large-scale, high-tech industrial construction. Candidates should have direct experience managing field construction activities within semiconductor facilities, with expertise in one or more of the following disciplines:

è Electrical Construction Managers

è Mechanical / Dry Systems Construction Managers

è Process Mechanical Construction Managers

Successful candidates will provide hands-on construction leadership, coordinate subcontractors and trade partners, drive schedule performance, maintain quality and safety standards, and ensure construction activities are executed in accordance with project requirements.

Roles and Responsibilities

• Provide Owner Representative field observation, monitoring, and coordination of the General Contractor’s contracted construction installation activities.
• Manage day-to-day construction activities for assigned MEP scopes across Basebuild and Fit-Up phases.
• Provide field leadership and oversight of subcontractors, trade partners, and construction crews.
• Coordinate installation, testing, commissioning, and turnover activities for assigned discipline.
• Review construction drawings, specifications, equipment layouts, and installation packages to ensure compliance with design intent.
• Coordinate with client Project Managers to maintain alignment between field installation activities, project scope, milestones, and schedule; work with engineering, design, project management, commissioning, and other construction disciplines to resolve field issues.
• Monitor project schedules, identify potential delays, and proactively drive recovery plans.
• Lead coordination meetings with subcontractors and internal project teams, and participate in applicable field coordination, construction, commissioning, quality, and schedule meetings.
• Manage construction sequencing, work-area readiness, material deliveries, and manpower planning; coordinate resources and stakeholder interfaces across Mechanical, Electrical, and Process scopes.
• Ensure installations meet semiconductor facility standards, project specifications, and applicable codes.
• Identify, communicate, and help resolve field constraints, installation issues, constructability issues, design conflicts, interface conflicts, and other conditions that may affect construction or commissioning milestones.
• Maintain a strong focus on safety, quality control, and productivity.
• Support system completion, pre-functional testing, construction-to-commissioning turnover, system readiness, and final turnover documentation, including client Commissioning and Quality requirements related to construction completion and turnover readiness.
• Verify and communicate field status to the appropriate client Project Manager and Field Manager; provide regular progress reporting and communicate risks, constraints, and critical path impacts to project leadership.
• Support coordination and closure of construction items affecting system turnover and commissioning readiness.

Discipline-Specific Experience

Electrical Construction Management

• Medium-voltage and low-voltage power distribution.
• Switchgear, transformers, panelboards, bus duct, and electrical equipment installation.
• UPS, emergency power, grounding, and bonding systems.
• Electrical raceways, cable tray, conduit, and power distribution.
• Coordination of electrical systems supporting cleanroom and manufacturing operations.

Mechanical / Dry Systems Construction Management

• Semiconductor mechanical utility and dry systems installation.
• HVAC, process exhaust, general exhaust, and make-up air systems.
• Chilled water, condenser water, compressed air, and other facility utility systems.
• Ductwork, piping, equipment setting, and mechanical infrastructure.
• Coordination of mechanical systems supporting cleanroom environments.
• Installation sequencing, testing, balancing, and system turnover.

Process Mechanical Construction Management

• Semiconductor process piping and specialty gas systems.
• High-purity piping, chemical distribution, and process utility systems.
• Stainless steel and specialty alloy piping installation.
• Process tool hook-ups and manufacturing equipment connections.
• Orbital welding, weld documentation, and piping quality requirements.
• System testing, pressure testing, flushing, purging, and commissioning.
• Coordination with process engineering, equipment vendors, and tool installation teams.

Position Requirements

Required Qualifications

• 8+ years of construction experience, preferably in large-scale industrial, advanced manufacturing, or semiconductor projects.
• Direct experience managing MEP construction scopes on semiconductor projects is strongly preferred.
• Demonstrated experience managing subcontractors and field construction teams.
• Strong understanding of construction drawings, specifications, schedules, and installation requirements.
• Experience working in complex, multi-discipline construction environments.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities while maintaining schedule, quality, and safety expectations.
• Strong communication, leadership, coordination, and problem-solving skills.
• Proficiency with construction management processes, progress tracking, and project reporting.

Preferred Qualifications

• Previous experience with major semiconductor manufacturing facility construction.
• Experience supporting both Basebuild and Fit-Up construction phases.
• Experience with greenfield semiconductor facility construction or major facility expansions.
• Knowledge of cleanroom construction, controlled environments, and semiconductor utility infrastructure.
• Experience with commissioning, system turnover, and operational readiness.
• OSHA 30 certification or equivalent safety training.

Computer Skills

-        Experience with construction management platforms such as Procore, Autodesk Construction Cloud, P6, or similar tools.

Project Environment

This position will support a fast-paced semiconductor construction program involving multiple construction phases, complex MEP infrastructure, and extensive coordination between engineering, construction, commissioning, and trade partners.

The ideal candidate is a hands-on construction leader who understands the demands of semiconductor construction, can effectively manage subcontractors in the field, and has the technical knowledge to drive complex MEP scopes from installation through system completion and turnover.
