Lead the Field. Plan Ahead. Build with Precision.

CMA Development is a boutique, architecturally driven general contractor based in San Francisco, specializing in high-end residential remodels and additions throughout the Bay Area.

CMA Development is seeking an experienced Site Superintendent to lead day-to-day field operations across active high-end residential projects. This role is for someone who already operates at a superintendent level and can manage jobsite planning, sequencing, logistics, trade coordination, documentation, and communication with confidence.

• Maintain daily logs, site photos, documentation, and labor tracking
• Use JobTread, Slack, CompanyCam, and Google Drive as part of the daily workflow
• Flag constructability issues early and protect schedule, budget, and design intent
• Communicate professionally with owners, architects, inspectors, vendors, and consultants
• Maintain clean, safe, organized, and well-run jobsites

Qualifications

• 5 or more years of experience as a Site Superintendent on high-end residential projects in the SF Bay Area is required
• Proven ability to manage multiple active projects successfully
• Strong understanding of residential sequencing, logistics, and trade coordination
• Comfortable using construction software and digital workflows
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Sound judgment and decision-making ability under pressure
• Valid California driver's license and reliable transportation

• Travel: Local travel between Bay Area job sites required
• Schedule: Monday-Friday, typical start time 7:00 AM; occasional flexibility based on project needs
