Why join Giga

The Pace: We're building at a speed most companies talk about but never actually operate at. If you've been bored somewhere else, you won't be here.
The Impact: Every person at Giga touches the work that matters. No layers, no waiting for approval chains. You'll see your fingerprints on what we ship.
The Team: A team of operators defining the future of AI infrastructure. We recruit A-players from the most innovative companies in the world, and they choose Giga because the work here means more.
The Moment: AI doesn't run without power, and that's us. Giga is the picks and shovels behind the AI revolution. This industry is about to explode, and you'll be in the room where it's already happening.

What you’ll do

Giga is building the electrical backbone of the AI era — transformers, switchgear, and modular data centers that power the world's most demanding compute deployments. We don't just sell into the infrastructure stack; we manufacture it, deploy it, and own the outcome. This is rare.

The Project Manager role sits at the center of that mission. You'll be the person who turns a signed contract into a live data center — orchestrating the moving parts, holding teams accountable, and making sure nothing slips through the cracks. If you want to physically build the infrastructure that powers AI, this is the job.

Where you’ll work

We are an in-office culture — velocity matters when you're building physical infrastructure, and the best decisions happen in the room. This role is ideally based in our San Francisco, Long Beach, or Houston offices, with full-time onsite expectations outside of bi-weekly WFH Fridays.

That said, we will make exceptions for truly exceptional talent if you live outside one of our hubs. If you're the right person for this role, we'll have a conversation about what works.

Responsibilities

Own end-to-end project delivery for data center buildouts, from contract execution through commissioning and handoff
Build and maintain detailed project schedules, milestone trackers, and budget logs across concurrent deployments
Coordinate daily across internal teams (engineering, procurement, finance, manufacturing) and external partners (EPCs, GCs, utilities, customers)
Identify risks early, escalate fast, and drive resolution — not status updates
Run structured project reviews with senior leadership, surfacing blockers and decision points clearly
Hold vendors, subcontractors, and internal stakeholders accountable to commitments
Build repeatable systems and processes that scale as our data center pipeline grows
Produce concise, decision-ready documentation: project plans, risk registers, change logs, executive summaries

Requirements

4–8 years of project management experience in data centers, construction, energy infrastructure, or complex capital projects
Demonstrated track record of delivering large-scale physical projects on schedule and within budget
Strong command of project management fundamentals: scheduling (MS Project, Smartsheet, or equivalent), cost tracking, risk management, change control
Experience managing cross-functional teams and external contractors without direct authority
High ownership mentality — you close loops, you don't wait to be asked twice
Clear, direct communicator comfortable presenting to C-suite and customer stakeholders
Comfortable with ambiguity and fast-moving environments where the playbook is still being written

Bonus points

Experience with modular or prefabricated data center deployments
Familiarity with electrical infrastructure (transformers, switchgear, MV/LV systems)
PMP, PE, or equivalent certification
Background working directly with hyperscalers, neo-cloud customers, or colocation operators

Benefits

Subsidized health, dental, and vision insurance
Equity (options) in a rapidly growing startup
401(k) with 4% employer match
Unlimited PTO
Parental leave
Healthcare and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA)
Commuter benefits

Who we hire

We hire people who thrive in chaos and get sharper under pressure. You don't wait to be told what to do, you spot the gap and fill it. When there's work to be done, you do it. You make decisions with the information you have, move fast, and adjust along the way. We're not looking for perfect; we're looking for people who get things done.
