About the role

SD Builders and Construction LLC is looking to add an experienced Site Superintendent to our growing team. If you’re a hands-on leader who thrives in the field and takes pride in delivering high-quality projects, we want to hear from you. With over 10 years of experience and 10,000+ units completed, SD Builders is a fast growing general contractor, specializing in mid-sized ground-up developments across New York City—including market-rate housing, affordable housing, and shelter projects (50–500+ units). Our work is built on strong partnerships, disciplined execution, and a commitment to doing things the right way. You’ll take the lead on daily field operations—overseeing subcontractors, coordinating schedules, ensuring safety compliance, managing materials, and driving progress on-site. You’ll be the key link between the field and project management team, solving problems in real time and keeping projects moving forward.

What We’re Looking For:

5+ years as a Site Superintendent on ground-up construction projects
Strong knowledge of construction methods, safety protocols, and NYC building codes
Ability to read and interpret architectural, structural, and MEP drawings
Proven leadership and subcontractor coordination experience
Proficiency in Autodesk Build, Procure, Bluebeam, or similar platforms
Strong communication and reporting skills
Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field (preferred)

Compensation: In compliance with NYC and NYS pay transparency laws, the salary range for this position is $180,000 – $235,000 annually, commensurate with experience and qualifications. In addition, we offer a comprehensive benefits package including health insurance, paid time off, and performance-based incentives. SD Builders and Construction LLC is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to fair hiring practices and do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other protected characteristic under applicable law.

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.
