You can turn a finished build into clear as-built records in Confluence or a similar wiki * Strong knowledge of IT cabling: Ethernet (Cat6/Cat6A), single-mode and multimode fiber, pathways, testing, and TIA standards * Working knowledge of electrical as it relates to IT: circuits, receptacle types, PDUs, UPS, generators, grounding, and reading panel schedules * Working knowledge of HVAC as it relates to IT: heat load and cooling for network and server rooms * Solid networking fundamentals (LAN/WAN, VLANs, Wi-Fi, PoE, ISP circuits), plus conference room AV and low-voltage security systems (access control, cameras, intrusion) * Experience leading site surveys and inspecting active construction * Track record managing multiple projects and timelines at once * Thrive in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment. You can take a loosely defined ask, fill in the gaps, and drive it to a decision * Clear communicator with a high degree of ownership What Will Set You Apart * BICSI RCDD, PMP, or AVIXA CTS certification * IT experience in manufacturing or industrial facilities, including OT and shop-floor connectivity * Startup or fast-track construction experience * Experience with tools like Ekahau, Verkada, or Genetec * Experience building AI-assisted workflows or automations for project tracking and reporting * CMMC, ITAR, or SCIF experience in aerospace, defense, or another regulated environment * Hands-on background as a network engineer, low-voltage technician, electrician, or AV integrator Physical & Operational Requirements * Full-time, on-site at our Torrance, CA HQ, with 25-50% travel to project sites, including regular site walks on active construction (PPE required) * Ability to walk large job sites, climb ladders, and lift up to 50 lbs * Occasional after-hours and weekend work during cutovers and go-lives ## Description Hadrian is building and expanding factories and offices across the country, both greenfield (new construction) and brownfield (retrofits of existing buildings). As our IT Infrastructure Project Manager, Site Buildouts, you'll own the technology scope of these projects from the first site survey to the day the building goes live. You'll partner with Security, Workplace, and Factory Development to define what each site needs, then work with architects, designers, the General Contractor, and trades like cabling vendors and electricians to design, procure, and build it. You won't pull every cable yourself, but you need to understand IT cabling, electrical, HVAC, networking, AV, and low-voltage security well enough to catch a bad design before it gets built. Hadrian moves fast, and requirements are often still taking shape when a project kicks off. You'll run several projects at once and be expected to fill in the gaps: ask the right questions, recommend a path, and keep things moving. You'll use AI tools every day to help you keep up. This is a full-time, on-site role based at our Torrance, CA HQ with 25-50% travel to project sites. It reports to David Chen, Director of IT. What You'll Do Requirements & Design * Partner with Security, Workplace, and Factory Development to define each site's technology requirements (security systems and CMMC controls, offices and AV, production lines and shop-floor connectivity) and turn them into one agreed-upon IT scope * When requirements are unclear, propose a recommended approach, document assumptions, and drive decisions * Work with engineering teams to define MDF and IDF requirements: location, rack layout, power (circuits, receptacle types, UPS, and PDUs), cooling, and fiber and copper backbone * Represent IT through each design phase (schematic design, design development, and construction documents), translating Hadrian standards into design requirements for architects and engineers * Review drawings, panel schedules, RFIs, and submittals for cabling, power, HVAC, AV, and security * Assess existing infrastructure on brownfield sites and plan phased cutovers that keep the business running Site Surveys & Inspections * Lead site surveys of new and prospective sites: existing cabling, electrical, HVAC, telecom rooms, carrier availability, and wireless coverage * Walk active construction at key milestones to confirm cabling, power, cooling, and low-voltage work is built to spec while the walls are still open * Document findings, track deficiencies, and follow up with the GC and vendors until they are fixed Procurement & Vendor Management * Own the IT budget for each project and manage change orders * Write statements of work (SOWs) for low-voltage cabling and AV vendors that clearly define scope, deliverables, standards, schedule, and acceptance criteria * Review vendor proposals and SOWs for gaps, exclusions, and assumptions before they are signed * Run bids, select vendors, and hold them accountable to the SOW on quality, schedule, and scope * Order long-lead equipment and ISP circuits early so they land when the schedule needs them * Represent IT in OAC and site coordination meetings Project & Timeline Management * Run several projects at once, each at a different phase, and own an IT schedule for each that ties into construction and equipment install timelines * Re-plan quickly when scope or timelines change, make tradeoff calls across projects, and communicate the impact clearly * Track progress, milestones, risks, and dependencies in Smartsheet and Jira, and keep stakeholders updated * Use AI tools in your daily work to draft SOWs, summarize RFIs, submittals, and meeting notes, compare vendor proposals, and build status updates faster * Build repeatable templates (survey checklists, MDF/IDF specs, AV room standards, SOW templates) so each project goes faster than the last Turnover & Closeout * Own the IT punch list and collect test results, as-builts, and documentation from vendors * Capture as-built information in Confluence (MDF/IDF layouts, rack elevations, cable and port maps, circuit and panel details, and test results) so every site has an accurate, up-to-date record * Coordinate with Technical Field Engineers on deployment and go-live, confirm readiness with partner teams, and hand off to local and central IT
