At Boldt, we build more than complex projects, and we build strong relationships, great teams, and lasting impact.

We’re looking for a Senior Project Manager who thrives in high-stakes, fast-paced environments and has a proven track record leading hyperscale, mission-critical data center construction projects. In this role, you will lead the delivery of large-scale, complex builds—from preconstruction through commissioning—serving as the senior leader accountable for overall project performance. You’ll lead a large, cross-functional team and own forecasting, cost control, and financial outcomes while managing complex CSA and MEP scopes in schedule-driven environments where speed-to-market, quality, and uptime are critical. Just as important, you’ll build strong, trust-based relationships with clients, partners, and project teams—serving as a steady, collaborative leader who brings people together to solve problems and deliver results.

You’ll play a key role in fostering a culture of safety, accountability, and high performance—driving alignment across project teams, craft labor, and trade partners. Our work is relationship-driven at its core, and success is built on open communication, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to doing the right thing for our clients and each other. This is an opportunity to work in a highly collaborative, fast-moving environment delivering high-density, technically complex data center facilities—while helping shape lasting partnerships and Boldt’s continued growth in the data center market.

The anticipated salary range for this position is $166,000 - $186,000 annually. This information reflects the anticipated base salary for this position based on current market data. Minimums and maximums may vary based on location. Actual pay will be adjusted based on an individual’s skills, experiences, education, and other job-related factors permitted by law.
