Job Description

Traveling Project Manager – Industrial & Data Center Decommissioning

Quantum Technology is a family business with 30 years of experience dismantling and removing commercial and industrial installations across the continental US. We’re growing our decommissioning division and need a hands-on Project Manager to run jobs from kickoff to closeout. This is not a desk job. You’ll be on site leading the work, and you’ll also handle the planning, coordination, and documentation that keep the job on schedule and profitable.

What we do:

  • Data center decommissioning: server racks, raised floor, ATS, UPS, generators, switchgear, HVAC/CRAC, fire suppression
  • Laboratory decommissioning: lab casework, fume hoods, process plumbing
  • Commercial/industrial electrical and mechanical removals: transformers, switchgear, chillers, and related MEP infrastructure

Before you apply, you must have these two:

  1. Willingness to travel extensively within the continental US
  2. Experience in industrial/commercial construction, electrical, or dismantling, including field leadership

What you’ll do:

  • Own 2 or more active projects from handoff to closeout: schedule, budget, scope, and client communication
  • Lead on site: walk the job with the foreman, run daily planning, and get hands-on when the job needs it
  • Plan removal sequencing, rigging, and trucking; coordinate with riggers, haulers, subcontractors, and the GC
  • Manage site requirements: certificates of insurance, site-specific safety plans/JHAs, badging, and lockout/tagout coordination
  • Enforce our safety program and keep the site clean, safe, and compliant
  • Track progress, labor, and costs against the estimate; flag scope changes early and document change orders
  • Make sure recovered equipment is tagged, documented, and transferred correctly to our warehouse
  • Keep project records current in our project management system (Zoho) and deliver closeout/turnover packages
  • Work with our Field Operations Manager on crew needs and scheduling

Requirements:

  • 5+ years in construction, electrical, or industrial dismantling, with at least 2 years as a PM, superintendent, or foreman running crews
  • Working knowledge of electrical distribution and critical power equipment (switchgear, ATS, UPS, generators, transformers)
  • Able to read drawings, one-lines, and site plans
  • OSHA 30 (or willing to obtain quickly)
  • Comfortable with email, spreadsheets, and project software, and able to keep accurate records
  • Organized, direct communicator who can handle clients and lead a crew
  • Valid driver’s license and the ability to pass a background check

Nice to have: data center or lab decommissioning experience, rigging knowledge, estimating experience, Zoho experience.

What we offer:

  • Pay: $[85,000–95,000] per year, based on experience
  • Per diem and travel covered on out-of-town jobs
  • 401(k) and health coverage
  • A growing division with room to advance as we scale

If you meet all requirements above, apply. We look forward to hearing from you.
