TS is recruiting two Project Managers with an Electrical Engineering background to support an active, large-scale datacenter construction project in Abernathy, Texas. Working fully onsite and embedded within the Saulsbury Industries EPC project team, these roles sit at the intersection of engineering expertise and project execution leadership.

The ideal candidate is an Electrical Engineer by training who has transitioned into project management — someone who can speak the language of the design team, hold their own with field construction leadership, and drive electrical scope delivery from engineering through commissioning. This is not a pure desk role; you will be on the jobsite managing active construction.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Project Execution Delivery

Manage the full lifecycle of electrical scope on an active datacenter construction project — from design coordination through field installation and commissioning
Develop, maintain, and enforce project schedules, milestones, and critical path items specific to electrical scope
Track and report on project progress, budget, and performance metrics to senior leadership
Identify schedule risks and cost variances early; develop and implement mitigation plans

Engineering Design Coordination

Serve as the primary liaison between the electrical design team and field construction crews
Review and interpret electrical drawings, cable tray layouts, one-line diagrams, and equipment specifications
Coordinate RFI responses, design clarifications, and drawing revisions with engineering leads
Ensure IFC (Issued for Construction) drawing packages are accurate, current, and accessible to field teams

Field Contractor Management

Oversee subcontractor performance on electrical scope; manage scope, schedule, and quality compliance
Conduct regular field walks to verify installation quality, safety compliance, and progress against drawings
Coordinate multi-discipline interfaces — particularly civil, structural, and instrumentation — to prevent conflicts and delays
Support commissioning and startup activities for electrical systems

Procurement Materials

Partner with procurement on long-lead electrical equipment (switchgear, transformers, MCC, cable tray systems)
Track equipment delivery schedules and proactively address supply chain impacts to the construction timeline

Stakeholder Communication

Prepare and present project status updates, look-ahead schedules, and risk registers to client and internal leadership
Maintain accurate project documentation including meeting minutes, change orders, and action logs

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or Electrical Engineering Technology (or equivalent hands-on EPC experience)
Minimum 8–12 years of combined electrical engineering and project management experience
Proven track record managing electrical scope on EPC or large-scale industrial/infrastructure construction projects
Working knowledge of electrical design deliverables — cable tray, one-lines, grounding, power distribution, equipment layouts
Ability to read, interpret, and redline electrical drawings and specifications
Strong understanding of NEC standards and industrial electrical construction practices
Demonstrated experience managing subcontractors, schedules, and budgets in a field construction environment
Fully onsite availability at an active jobsite in Abernathy, TX — required, non-negotiable

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

Direct experience on datacenter, power generation, substation, or large-scale industrial construction projects
PMP certification or equivalent project management credential
Familiarity with EPC project controls tools (Primavera P6, MS Project, Procore, or similar)
Prior experience in West Texas, the Permian Basin, or remote jobsite environments
Experience with medium-voltage systems, substation construction, or large electrical equipment installation
Exposure to AVEVA E3D, SP3D, or equivalent 3D model environments — ability to navigate model for field coordination

WHAT SETS THE RIGHT CANDIDATE APART

You started as an electrical engineer. You know what a cable tray fill calculation is. You've reviewed IFC packages and caught errors before they became field problems. At some point, you stepped into a PM role — and realized you're more valuable leading the project than drawing it. You're comfortable on a jobsite in West Texas, you don't need to be managed, and you know how to hold a subcontractor accountable without burning the relationship.

WORK ENVIRONMENT

This is a fully onsite role at an active construction jobsite in Abernathy, Texas. Abernathy is located in the South Plains region of West Texas, approximately 20 miles north of Lubbock. Candidates should be prepared for a field construction environment with standard EPC jobsite conditions. Compensation reflects the onsite West Texas requirement and is determined based on candidate qualifications and market rate.
