We’re seeking an experienced Wireless Project Manager to lead end-to-end delivery of AT&T MOD projects—from site acquisition handoff (SARC) through construction, integration, and closeout. The ideal candidate is a self-starter with 5–10 years of wireless experience on AT&T cellular builds, skilled in budgeting, resource planning, and forecasting, and fluent in BOM development, site design, and hands-on troubleshooting coordination.

·       Own project scope, schedule, budget, quality, and safety for a portfolio of AT&T sites (MCA - 4G/5G overlays, capacity adds).

·       Build and manage budgets/forecasts; track job cost to completion; drive margin protection and change orders.

·       Create and maintain resource plans (internal crews & subcontractors); sequence civil, electrical, and RF tasks to meet market milestones.

·       Develop, review, and maintain Bills of Materials (BOMs) (antennas, RRUs/gNBs, fiber/coax, power plants/rectifiers, battery strings, grounding, ancillary hardware).

·       Interpret CDs, RFDS, MOPs, and utility drawings; coordinate redlines/as-builts with construction and engineering.

·       Run vendor and material procurement; manage lead times, warehousing, and RMA processes.

·       Coordinate integration & test (sweeps/return loss/VSWR, PIM, OTDR, fiber certs, grounding/bonding, power up) and resolve field issues.

·       Drive closeout packages (COPs)—photo logs, test results, commissioning, and quality checklists per AT&T specs.

·       Maintain accurate status in project tools (e.g., MS Project/Smartsheet/SiteTracker/Siterra) and prepare weekly client updates.

·       Ensure OSHA/NATE safety compliance; conduct JHAs and site audits.

·       Manage stakeholders (utility, landlord/GC, AHJ/inspections, turf/market teams) and escalate risks proactively.

·       5–10 years managing wireless deployment projects with direct AT&T market/turf experience.

·       Proven self-starter with success delivering 20–60 concurrent sites on aggressive timelines.

·       Strong command of budgeting, cost control, resource planning, and forecasting (EAC, burn rates, productivity).

·       Deep knowledge of BOMs and site design (structural, RF, DC power, fiber/backhaul, grounding).

·       Working knowledge of wireless troubleshooting domains: RF health (PIM/VSWR), transport (fiber/ethernet/OTDR), power (rectifiers/batteries), and integration/commissioning workflows.

·       Proficiency with MS Project or Smartsheet, Excel (lookups, pivots), and common wireless PM platforms (e.g., SiteTracker, Siterra).

·       Excellent communication, vendor management, and negotiation skills; change-order and claim documentation experience.

·       Valid driver’s license; ability to visit sites and meet field crews as needed.

·       Experience across MCA, MOD’s or similar upgrades with all technologies.

·       Familiarity with AT&T market processes/specs (RFDS, quality checklists, COP standards).

·       PMP and/or RCDD certification.

·       Safety certs (OSHA-10/30, First Aid/CPR).

·       Hands-on understanding of PIM & sweep testing, OTDR, and power plant commissioning (coordination level).

Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Construction Management, Business, or equivalent experience.

·       Occasional ladder/stairs/site walks; lift/carry up to 25 lbs of test gear as needed.

·       Travel 25–40% within market/turf; periodic after-hours cutovers.
