Superintendent, Scheduling (Tx)

Job Description

We are seeking an experienced Senior Superintendent to support large-scale data center programs through project coordination, execution planning, schedule alignment, and stakeholder leadership.

This individual will serve as a key partner to Project Management, Project Controls, Scheduling, Procurement, Commissioning, and Leadership teams to help ensure complex program milestones are planned, sequenced, tracked, and delivered effectively.

The ideal candidate has extensive experience supporting large-scale data center, mission-critical, semiconductor, advanced manufacturing, or complex infrastructure programs and possesses a strong understanding of project sequencing, procurement dependencies, critical path activities, commissioning requirements, and turnover readiness.

This role is not responsible for developing or maintaining schedules in Primavera P6. Instead, the Senior Superintendent will provide execution expertise, sequencing guidance, schedule validation, risk identification, and mentorship to scheduling and project controls teams.

This is an office-based position focused on program coordination, planning, reporting, schedule advisement, stakeholder engagement, and delivery support.

Review schedule alignment between procurement, equipment readiness, commissioning activities, and turnover milestones.

Identify commissioning bottlenecks and operational readiness risks.

Partner with project controls, commissioning teams, vendors, and stakeholders to support milestone achievement.

Assist with turnover planning, documentation readiness, and operational acceptance activities.

Risk Management & Executive Reporting

Participate in schedule risk reviews and milestone planning sessions.

Assist leadership teams in evaluating schedule impacts, milestone risks, and recovery opportunities.

Support preparation of schedule narratives, milestone reports, and executive briefings.

Clearly communicate execution risks, schedule challenges, procurement concerns, and commissioning impacts.

Provide recommendations to support informed program-level decisions.

Team Support & Mentorship

Mentor schedulers on data center delivery sequencing and critical path development.

Help bridge the gap between schedule development and actual program execution requirements.

Provide feedback on schedule updates, milestone forecasts, and recovery strategies.

Support continuous improvement initiatives across scheduling, controls, and program management functions.

Share lessons learned and best practices from prior large-scale data center programs.
