Conduct job site visits and stay connected to project execution

Help implement and improve project management systems and processes

Build scalable processes as the company continues to grow

What We're Looking For

10+ years of construction/project management experience

Strong commercial, multifamily, or similar ground-up construction experience

Strong understanding of budgets, job costing, scheduling, and financial reporting

Experience with cost-to-complete forecasting and committed-cost tracking

Highly analytical and detail-oriented

Comfortable managing multiple projects simultaneously

Strong problem-solving skills and ability to make decisions quickly

Someone who is hands-on and willing to dig into the details

Ability to work in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment

Austin-based and able to work full-time in the Austin market

Why This Role

This is a unique opportunity to bring commercial construction discipline into a rapidly scaling residential development business . You'll have significant visibility with ownership, the opportunity to help shape how projects are managed, and the potential to build a project management team as the company grows.
