About the Role

The team is seeking a Project Manager to lead the delivery of low-voltage and telecom systems for a large-scale hyperscale data center campus in Santa Teresa, NM. This role will support a multi-phase, multi-billion-dollar development designed to power next-generation cloud and AI infrastructure.

The Project Manager will be responsible for managing the full lifecycle of low-voltage scope, including structured cabling, fiber, and network infrastructure, while working closely with General Contractors, subcontractors, and internal stakeholders.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage end-to-end delivery of low-voltage / telecom systems across multiple data center buildings.
  • Oversee installation of structured cabling, fiber optics, and network infrastructure.
  • Coordinate with General Contractors, subcontractors, and design teams to ensure successful execution.
  • Track and manage project schedules, budgets, and scope for LV packages.
  • Review and manage RFIs, submittals, and change orders.
  • Lead coordination meetings and provide regular project updates to stakeholders.
  • Ensure compliance with data center standards, safety requirements, and quality expectations.
  • Support commissioning, testing, and handover of telecom systems.


Required Experience

  • 5-10+ years of experience in construction or project management
  • Minimum 3-5+ years of data center or mission-critical experience
  • Proven experience managing low-voltage / telecom scope (structured cabling, fiber, network infrastructure)
  • Experience working directly with General Contractors (REQUIRED)
  • Background in ground-up construction projects
  • Strong understanding of MEP systems and integration with LV infrastructure
  • Experience managing project documentation, schedules, and budgets


Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with hyperscale data center projects
  • Background working for:
    • Data center developers or owners
    • Mission-critical General Contractors
    • Low-voltage integrators
  • Familiarity with commissioning processes and Tier III/IV environments
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills


Driver's License Requirement:

For roles that require on-site presence or travel between work locations as an essential function of the position, candidates must possess and maintain a valid driver's license appropriate for the role and be eligible to operate a motor vehicle in accordance with applicable laws.

Communication Skills:

Demonstrated ability to communicate effectively in a professional work environment, including preparing written reports and documentation, conveying information clearly to team members, clients, and stakeholders, and responding appropriately to verbal and written communications related to job duties.

Physical Requirements and Work Environment

This position operates primarily in an active data center construction environment, encompassing both indoor and outdoor work settings. The role requires the physical ability to perform essential job functions safely and effectively in a dynamic environment that includes ongoing construction activity and evolving site conditions.

The work environment includes areas and temporary structures owned, leased, or controlled by third parties over which Overwatch may have limited or no control. Because the project remains under construction, certain areas of the site - including access routes, staging zones, and temporary structures - may not yet be fully ADA-compliant until construction is complete or those third-party areas are finalized.

Physical Requirements:

  • Must be able to walk, stand, stoop, twist, bend, and climb stairs or ladders for extended periods while navigating uneven, unpaved, or obstructed terrain.
  • Must be able to lift, carry, push, or pull up to 50 pounds on an occasional basis.
  • Must be able to drive between job sites and access all areas of an active construction zone, including raised platforms, scaffolding, and confined spaces.
  • Must be able to tolerate exposure to outdoor weather conditions, dust, and construction-related noise, vibrations, and odors.
  • Must be able to communicate effectively with contractors, engineers, and site personnel, and maintain situational awareness in high-activity environments.
  • Personal protective equipment (PPE), including hard hats, safety vests, hearing protection, and steel-toe boots, is required.
  • Must have sufficient visual acuity to read drawings, specifications, and safety signage, and to observe site activity.


Work Environment:

Work is performed primarily in and around active construction areas, which may include unfinished buildings, temporary field offices, staging areas, and partially completed infrastructure. These locations may contain uneven surfaces, limited accessibility, and other conditions typical of construction projects prior to final completion. Overwatch does not control and cannot modify accessibility conditions within areas, facilities, or temporary structures owned or managed by third parties.

Reasonable Accommodation:

Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable qualified individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions of this position, provided such accommodations do not create safety hazards, impede essential mobility within active work zones, or require modification of facilities not owned or controlled by Overwatch.

Benefits:

We offer a competitive salary and benefits package, including health insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance, 401(k) plan, and paid time off. Relocation assistance is available to support candidates transitioning to the location.
