Job Description

Our Digital Infrastructure Group has been at the forefront of creating a new generation of communication infrastructure for over 40 years. We specialize in everything from network development to complete telecom life cycle solutions, datacenter retrofits and modernization, to full datacenter buildouts. While these critical environments are ever changing, the demand for innovative technology and long-term support remains constant.

  • Commercial Support: Review contract terms for controls requirements
  • support negotiations, claims, and change/dispute resolution with thorough, data-driven substantiation.
  • Governance & Reporting: Produce high-quality monthly reports (cost, schedule, cash flow, risk, change log, S‑curves, KPIs) and ensure compliance with Amentum procedures and client requirements.
  • Team Leadership: Recruit, develop, and mentor project controls staff
  • set standards, coach for quality, and foster a culture of accountability and continuous improvement.
  • Stakeholder Interface: Collaborate with client representatives, EPC partners, trade contractors, OEMs, and internal disciplines to align scope, priorities, and execution strategies.

Requirements

  • Education: Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Construction Management, Finance, or related field (or international equivalent) is preferred
  • Experience: 10+ years of progressive project controls experience on heavy civil, industrial, hyperscale data center, semiconductor fab, or advanced manufacturing projects

  • Tools: Strong proficiency with MS Project and Primavera P6 (or equivalent), Procore and advanced Excel.
  • Communication & Influence: Excellent written and verbal communication
  • proven ability to brief executives and lead cross-functional teams in fast-paced environments.

Nice to have

  • Certification: AACE International Certified Cost Professional (CCP) strongly preferred
  • PSP, EVP, or PMP a plus.
  • Mission-Critical Experience: Hyperscale data centers or semiconductor fabs (cleanroom protocols, tool install, CSA/MEP sequencing) strongly preferred.
  • EVM Compliance: Experience implementing/maintaining ANSI/EIA‑748 compliant EVM systems for large capital projects.
  • Data & Automation: Power BI/Tableau dashboarding, data modeling, and scripting (e.g., Python/Power Query) for controls automation.
