Site Program Manager, Early Career

Nscale is building out AI infrastructure deployments across North America. As we transition from a vendor-led delivery model to in-house execution, we're hiring Site PMs who will own the physical delivery floor, coordinating trades, managing contractors, and driving daily site execution from civil through commissioning. This early-career track is for candidates who want to learn that floor ownership hands-on, under the mentorship of senior Site PMs.

What You Will Do

Own on-site delivery execution across the full deployment lifecycle — from civil and structural through power, mechanical, cabling, hardware install, and commissioning

Coordinate trades on site — electrical, mechanical, low voltage, and network — driving daily standup cadence, resolving trade conflicts, and holding contractors accountable to schedule

Interface with General Contractors, subcontractors, and OEM vendors on site — managing RFIs, submittals, change orders, and daily progress

Track site schedule against the master plan — identify variances early, escalate proactively, and work with Project Controls to reflect actuals

Own site commissioning and acceptance testing process — coordinate power-on sequencing, thermal validation, network testing, and final sign-off against customer acceptance criteria

Produce daily and weekly site status updates to the Head of E2E Delivery and Integration PM — structured, data-led, no surprises

Enforce safety protocols on site — PPE compliance, LOTO procedures, hot-work permits, and change management controls

Build and maintain relationships with trades crews, contractors, and site teams — trust and credibility on the floor is a core part of this role

Minimum Qualifications

0–2 years of experience or a recent college graduate, with a degree in construction management, civil/electrical engineering, or a related technical field preferred

Internship, co-op, or academic project experience in construction, data center operations, or critical infrastructure is a strong plus but not required

Basic ability to read or willingness to quickly learn construction drawings, RFIs, and submittals

A genuine interest in spending significant time on an active construction or data center site, since this is a hands-on, on-site role

Clear, organized communication, with the habit of taking good notes and surfacing what you saw without being asked

Calm, steady demeanor, comfortable being on a busy site and asking questions to learn quickly

Willingness to travel extensively and spend significant time on active deployment sites

Preferred Qualifications

Coursework or certification related to construction management, OSHA 10/30, or project management

Prior internship in data center, telecom infrastructure, or large-scale technology deployment

Exposure to AI or GPU infrastructure (rack and stack, high-density power, cabling standards)
