About the job

About the Role

We are seeking a Design Project Manager to lead the integration, coordination, and execution of multi-disciplinary design efforts across a portfolio of complex, fast-track data center projects. This pivotal role acts as the primary bridge between engineering discipline leads, external Engineers of Record (EORs), procurement specialists, and project management teams to ensure technical deliverables align seamlessly with procurement and construction schedules.

This is an exceptional opportunity for an experienced architectural or engineering project manager to oversee large-scale design workflows and drive execution on high-density infrastructure builds.

Key Responsibilities

Design Integration & Workflow Management

Coordinate multi-disciplinary design efforts across Civil, Structural, Architectural (CSA), Electrical, Mechanical, and specialty systems.

Facilitate multidisciplinary drawing reviews, design workshops, and coordination meetings with internal teams and external consultants.

Serve as the primary liaison between Engineering and Program Management to ensure cohesive design delivery.

Oversee design-related RFIs from construction personnel and ensure prompt, technical resolutions.

Schedule, Procurement & Risk Alignment

Establish and manage design milestones and delivery schedules aligned with overall program completion dates.

Monitor progress across all design phases, tracking deliverables from both internal teams and external engineering partners.

Work closely with procurement teams to align technical specifications with long-lead equipment availability, vendor capabilities, and lead times.

Proactively identify design risks that could impact construction starts, equipment procurement, or commissioning milestones, developing timely mitigation strategies.

Stakeholder Communication & Reporting

Maintain transparency across all active design workflows, providing routine status updates to executive engineering and program management leadership.

Qualifications

Required:

8–15+ years of experience in design project management, engineering coordination, or architecture/engineering (A/E) project delivery.

Proven track record managing multi-disciplinary design teams, external Engineers of Record (EORs), and specialized design consultants.

Deep understanding of fast-track, design-build, or progressive design-build delivery methods.

Solid grasp of construction workflows, constructability reviews, and the impact of procurement schedules on design iterations.

Outstanding organizational, facilitation, and cross-functional leadership skills.

Preferred:

Direct experience leading design coordination for hyperscale data centers, mission-critical facilities, semiconductor plants, or major industrial builds.

Professional registration (PE or RA) or PMP certification is a strong plus.

Bachelor’s degree in Architecture, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, or Construction Management.

Why Apply?

Leadership Visibility: Direct influence over major capital project design strategies and consultant partnerships.

Complex Technical Scope: Lead cutting-edge infrastructure builds supporting next-generation computing and technology demands.

Dynamic Team Environment: Work in a highly collaborative setting combining engineering excellence, procurement strategy, and field execution.
