What's the Job?

• Provide owner representative quality leadership across active data center construction through field observations and quality audits.
• Review and govern the General Contractor’s Quality Management Plan, Inspection and Test Plans (ITPs), and quality documentation to ensure alignment with approved requirements.
• Monitor Nonconformances (NCRs) and corrective actions, identify recurring quality trends, and escalate unresolved risks before they impact commissioning, turnover, schedule, or operations.
• Coordinate with construction, design, commissioning, procurement, operations, and contractor teams to resolve quality issues and confirm installed work conforms to approved drawings, specifications, and Microsoft quality standards.
• Promote a “Right First Time” culture that prevents defects and rework rather than relying on downstream correction.

What's in it for me?

• Opportunity to represent owner-side quality authority on large-scale, mission-critical data center construction.

• Exposure across construction, design, engineering, commissioning, procurement, and operations functions throughout data center delivery.
• Chance to build and reinforce a Right First Time culture focused on preventing rework, delays, and operational risk.
