If you’ve built your career ensuring complex building systems perform flawlessly under pressure, this role is for you. We’re partnered with a nationally recognized General Contractor delivering mission-critical and data center projects across the U.S.

Their work supports the digital backbone of global infrastructure - and they’re seeking a Commissioning Manager who wants meaningful ownership over systems performance across large-scale, technically demanding builds.

The Opportunity

This isn’t a passive oversight role. As a remote Commissioning Manager , you’ll guide regional field teams, partner with project leadership, and ensure commissioning excellence across multiple data center and mission-critical sites.

The GC is well-capitalized, rapidly growing, and deeply embedded in the hyperscale ecosystem, with project teams nationwide known for precision, safety, and reliability.

The Role

You’ll manage the end-to-end commissioning process within a general contractor environment - from early design coordination and trade alignment through integrated systems testing and owner turnover.

You’ll work closely with superintendents, project managers, engineers, subcontractors, and client teams to ensure every system performs as specified and every milestone is delivered with accuracy.

Your leadership will directly influence building readiness, performance, and long-term operational success.

Scope & Responsibilities

• Lead commissioning programs across multiple active construction sites
• Coordinate with project teams, trade partners, and commissioning agents to ensure alignment
• Validate performance of electrical, mechanical, cooling, controls, and life-safety systems
• Ensure compliance with safety, quality, sustainability, and operational standards
• Deliver clear reporting on risks, progress, testing results, and critical milestones
• Implement commissioning best practices to drive consistency across all projects

What You Bring

• Proven commissioning experience within mission-critical, data center, or complex building projects
• Strong leadership, coordination, and communication skills
• A problem-solving mindset focused on reliability and system performance
• Background working with general contractors, trade partners, or large commercial facilities
• Willingness to travel regionally (up to 50%) on a 2 weeks on / 1 week off rotation

Why This Role?

You’ll join a GC with one of the strongest mission-critical portfolios in the country - backed by major investment, a consistent pipeline of hyperscale work, and a culture that values precision and teamwork.

The leadership team is committed to long-term development, offering training, mentorship, and clear pathways for growth so your career advances alongside the projects you deliver.

The Pitch

If you want to lead commissioning in a GC environment that shapes performance, efficiency, and resilience across mission-critical infrastructure - this is the place to do it.
