As Project Scheduler at Giga, you'll own the integrated master schedule across every active project in our portfolio. This is a high-stakes, high-visibility role where the schedule isn't a reporting artifact; it's the operating system for how we build.
Responsibilities:
- Develop fully integrated, logically tied, and resource-loaded schedules spanning Engineering, Procurement, Vendor, Construction, and Commissioning phases across all active GigaEnergy projects.
- Own and maintain the integrated Level 3/4 master schedule from concept through energization, incorporating design milestones, long-lead procurement, permitting, construction sequences, and commissioning handoff.
- Monitor, analyze, and report the critical path and overall project performance; surface schedule variance (SV) and schedule performance index (SPI) with actionable context for leadership.
- Analyze scheduling and project data with an innovative approach, translating raw progress into clear, decision-ready outcomes for engineering, procurement, and construction teams.
- Create “what-if” scenario schedules showing viable alternative paths to achieve project objectives, accelerate delivery, or reduce schedule and cost risk.
- Ensure scheduling tools are progressed and updated weekly with all stakeholders across multiple concurrent programs, maintaining accurate and meaningful outputs at all times.
- Sequence modular equipment delivery and installation against site infrastructure readiness.
- Work with the permitting team to incorporate jurisdictional review timelines, de-annexation, and utility coordination milestones into the integrated schedule.
- Assist field teams with the creation of 3-week look-ahead schedules; validate contractor look-aheads against master schedule logic.
- Use clear and effective communication methods to escalate risks and communicate successes to project teams and executive leadership.
- Produce ELT-ready executive schedule dashboards, concise, visual, and exception-based.
- Facilitate weekly schedule review meetings; document decisions, risks, and action items.
- Interface with GC, subcontractors, and equipment vendors to validate schedule commitments and drive recovery where needed.
- Maintain schedule documentation in Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC Docs) per GigaEnergy Document Management SOP, ensuring version control and milestone traceability.
Requirements:
- Degree in Engineering or Construction Management, or equivalent hands-on project controls experience.
- 7+ years of scheduling experience on large commercial, industrial, manufacturing, mining, government, and/or oil & gas construction projects.
- Direct scheduling experience with proficiency in Primavera P6 required; expert-level CPM schedule development, logic-tying, and resource loading.
- Highly proficient with Microsoft Excel schedule analytics, milestone tracking, EVM calculations, and scenario modeling.
- Deep knowledge of Critical Path Methodology and Earned Value Management, with a demonstrated history of successful schedule reporting, compression, and mitigation efforts.
- Ability to work within a high-performance team with sometimes tight deadlines.
Bonus Points:
- Experience on modular or prefabricated construction projects; familiarity with module sequencing, skid-based delivery, and PEMB procurement cycles.
- Background in data center construction, energy infrastructure, or substations.
- Familiarity with Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) or comparable CDE platforms.
- PMI-SP (Scheduling Professional) or AACE PSP certification, or actively working toward it.
- Exposure to Texas or California permitting timelines, utility coordination, and de-annexation processes.
