Lead daily coordination meetings and maintain a proactive look-ahead schedule to manage phased, occupied-facility construction sequencing. Partner with the Project Executive/PM on budget tracking, change orders, and owner communication. Maintain strong relationships with hospital facilities/capital projects teams, OSHPD/HCAI reviewers, and healthcare-experienced subcontractors. Mentor assistant superintendents and field engineers on healthcare-specific field requirements. Uphold strict safety, infection control, and life-safety standards in a sensitive, occupied clinical environment. Qualifications 10+ years of construction superintendent experience, with significant time on OSHPD/HCAI-regulated healthcare projects in California.

Established relationships with Bay Area health systems, hospital facilities teams, and healthcare-focused subcontractors. Working knowledge of OSHPD/HCAI inspection, testing, and closeout requirements. Strong scheduling skills — comfortable managing phased construction sequencing in occupied facilities. Excellent communication skills; ability to coordinate with hospital staff, inspectors, and infection control officers. OSHA 30 certification preferred.
