About the role

Assistant Project Manager/ Project Engineer Mobile, Alabama Area | 100MW+ Greenfield Hyperscale Data CenterAn established construction organization is assembling the project team for a major new 100MW+ greenfield hyperscale data-center development in the Mobile, Alabama area. This is an opportunity to join the project at the very beginning of its lifecycle, working alongside experienced project leadership on a large-scale, technically complex development with significant long-term growth potential. We are looking to appoint 2–3 Assistant Project Managers/ Project Engineers to support project delivery across document control, subcontractor coordination, RFIs, submittals and general project administration. For ambitious construction professionals with strong large-project experience, this role offers a clear opportunity to take on increasing responsibility and develop toward a broader Project Management career path as the campus progresses.
Responsibilities: Coordinate RFIs, submittals and project documentation. Support subcontractor coordination and communication. Assist Project Managers and field leadership with day-to-day project execution. Track documentation, actions, approvals and outstanding project items. Coordinate between project stakeholders, subcontractors and internal teams. Support project meetings, reporting and construction administration. Develop toward increased package and Project Management responsibility.
Candidate Profile: Previous experience as an Assistant Project Manager, Project Engineer or similar construction professional. Experience working on large-scale construction projects is essential. Data-center or hyperscale experience is advantageous but not required. Backgrounds in major commercial, industrial, advanced manufacturing, mission-critical or similarly complex construction environments will be considered. Strong understanding of RFIs, submittals, document control and subcontractor coordination. Ability to work effectively within a fast-moving, large-project environment. Strong communication, organization and attention to detail.
Location / Working Arrangement: The project is currently in early mobilization. Successful candidates may initially work remotely while site infrastructure is established, before transitioning to full-time onsite work in the Mobile, Alabama area. Candidates may be considered from across the United States where they are open to working onsite for the duration of the project.
Compensation: Approximately $120,000–$150,000 base salary, depending on experience and location. Additional project-related compensation and travel support may apply and will be discussed during the recruitment process.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
