Foreman Role in Hyperscale Data Center Construction

Are you a hands-on leader who thrives in fast-paced, high-tech environments? We're looking for an experienced Foreman to lead field teams on hyperscale data center construction projects—ensuring every installation is completed safely, efficiently, and to the highest quality standards. In this role, you'll be the driving force on-site—coordinating teams, managing logistics, and keeping projects aligned with scope, schedule, and safety goals. You'll oversee installations across structured cabling, OSP, splicing, security, and BDA/DAS systems, while mentoring your team and maintaining exceptional client communication. This is an opportunity to build critical infrastructure while leading a crew that takes pride in craftsmanship, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

• Plan & Execute: Coordinate manpower, tools, and materials daily to keep projects on schedule. Review blueprints and layouts to ensure clarity and accuracy for your team.
• Promote Safety: Conduct daily toolbox talks, enforce PPE compliance, and champion a zero-incident safety culture.
• Ensure Quality: Oversee testing, labeling, and documentation for accuracy and completeness before submission. Partner with QA/QC for inspections, punch list closure, and MVP turnover.
• Communicate Proactively: Collaborate closely with Project Managers, GCs, and client representatives to report progress, resolve challenges, and plan ahead.
• Manage Materials: Coordinate requisitions, deliveries, and inventory with the procurement team to ensure just-in-time availability of tools and materials.
• Mentor for Growth: Support team skill evaluations, provide on-the-job training, and guide field staff in developing their technical and leadership capabilities.
• Document Everything: Maintain redlines, deviations, installed quantities, and progress reports to ensure project accuracy and accountability.
• Recommend & Improve: Identify process, safety, or efficiency improvements and make recommendations aligned with best practices and industry standards.
