• Manage vendor communication, subcontracts, equipment procurement.
• Serve as the primary project point of contact for clients on technical and schedule matters; prepare and present periodic status reports and executive-level summaries.

Qualifications

• Bachelors degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Systems, or Controls Engineering or related field preferred.
• 3+ years of project management experience delivering engineering projects with controls/BAS/SCADA components.
• Experience with data centers and/or hospital-critical facilities strongly preferred.
• Demonstrated experience in pre-construction planning, cost estimating, budgeting, and schedule management for large, multidisciplinary projects.
• Proven technical knowledge of building automation systems (BAS/BMS), SCADA, PLCs, DDCs, HMI, HVAC controls, and system architecture design.
