About this role

About Giga Giga is building gigawatts of AI data centers to hasten a future of intelligence and abundance. We build data centers fast and at scale by combining the capabilities of an equipment supplier, engineering firm, general contractor, and real estate developer under one roof. Our team moves quickly and thinks practically. If you're ready to make an impact in an industry that matters, we're looking for people like you.

Why join Giga The Pace: We're building at a speed most companies talk about but never actually operate at. If you've been bored somewhere else, you won't be here. The Impact : Every person at Giga touches the work that matters. No layers, no waiting for approval chains. You'll see your fingerprints on what we ship. The Team: A team of operators defining the future of AI infrastructure. We recruit A-players from the most innovative companies in the world, and they choose Giga because the work here means more.

The Moment : AI doesn't run without power, and that's us. Giga is the picks and shovels behind the AI revolution. This industry is about to explode, and you'll be in the room where it's already happening. What you’ll do As Senior Technical Project Manager at Giga, you will own a major data center project or a cluster of related projects end-to-end, from site feasibility through construction close-out and energization.

You operate with a high degree of autonomy, reporting to the Technical Program Manager while functioning as the de facto project lead for everyone else: engineers, A&E consultants, GC, subcontractors, AHJs, and utilities. You set the schedule, you manage the vendors, you drive permitting, and you own the handoff to construction. You’re also expected to help build the function developing playbooks, mentoring Technical Project Managers, and identifying gaps in how Giga runs projects before those gaps become problems.

Where you’ll work We are an in-office culture, velocity matters when you’re building physical infrastructure, and the best decisions happen in the room. This role is based at GigaEnergy HQ with regular travel to active construction sites across the US. That said, we will make exceptions for truly exceptional talent. If you’re the right person for this role, we’ll have a conversation about what works. Responsibilities Project Ownership Own the integrated project schedule from Site Feasibility through IFC and construction close-out fully logic-tied, resource-loaded, and updated weekly in Primavera P6 or MS Project.
