Role Scope- Own architectural conformance across active construction sites, verifying that building envelope, life-safety assemblies, and spatial layouts match approved specifications and closing deviations before they hit operations or permitting.
- Drive AHJ and permitting execution at each deployment site, including inspections, code interpretation questions, and certificate of occupancy sequencing, to keep permitting on schedule.
- Manage the architectural RFI and submittal process during active construction, coordinating with the engineer of record and contractors to resolve field conflicts without slowing the build.
- Enforce FM Global envelope and life-safety compliance through contractor-driven field conditions, tracking and closing open items before substantial completion.
- Own the architectural punch list at each site from substantial completion through final acceptance, and feed field observations back into prototype specifications and deployment standards.
What We're Looking ForThe below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.- You hold a bachelor's degree in Architecture or a related field.
- You've worked as an owner's representative or developer-side architect on data center or large-scale mission-critical construction, with on-site accountability through substantial completion and certificate of occupancy.
- You know IBC, IFC, occupancy classification, egress requirements, and fire-rated assembly construction well enough to resolve code interpretation issues with AHJs in the field.
- You've managed the RFI and submittal process on active construction sites, coordinating contractors, the engineer of record, and internal stakeholders under schedule pressure.
- You've maintained FM Global envelope and life-safety compliance through contractor-driven changes during active construction.
- You can travel extensively to deployment sites across multiple jurisdictions, 50 percent or more of the time.
- Bonus: Licensed Architect (RA). Experience on hyperscale data center or large-scale industrial construction sites as an owner's representative. Familiarity with FM Global DS 1-28 and DS 1-29 roof and envelope standards. Proficiency in Procore, Bluebeam, or ACC for construction management and field documentation. Experience with modular or prefab construction programs and their deployment conformance challenges.
Compensation: $200,000 - $250,000 per year, depending on experience, skills, qualifications, and location. Offers equity in the form of stock options.
We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
