What you’ll do
As the Civil Superintendent, you will run civil construction on the ground at Giga's active data center sites — grading, earthwork, underground utilities, foundations, and site concrete — making sure the work happening in the dirt keeps pace with a schedule that doesn't wait. You'll manage subcontractors day-to-day, hold the line on safety and quality, and be the person who catches a problem before it becomes a delay. You'll work directly with the Construction Manager, PMs, and civil engineers to translate the plan on paper into a site that's actually built right, on time.

This is a site-based role. You'll be on-site full-time at an active Giga data center construction site, with the specific location depending on current project needs.
