Job Description

We are seeking a skilled Iron Worker to help build high-performance data centers and AI supercomputing campuses. In this hands-on role, you will erect structural steel, miscellaneous metals, and equipment supports that form the backbone of next-generation supercomputer halls, cooling plants, substations, and site infrastructure.

  • Erect structural steel for supercomputer halls, mechanical plants, substations, cooling yards, and site buildings, including columns, beams, bracing, joists, and metal deck.

  • Install miscellaneous metals such as stairs, ladders, platforms, catwalks, grating, handrail, embeds, and equipment frames to support construction, operations, and maintenance access.

  • Fabricate and install pipe racks, aerial galleries, mezzanines, and support steel for chilled-water piping, cable tray, busway, and liquid-cooling distribution serving AI compute halls.

  • Rig, hoist, and set structural members and heavy equipment-support steel using cranes, come-alongs, chain falls, and approved lifting gear, serving as rigger or signal person when qualified.

  • Bolt, torque, weld, and plumb connections in accordance with drawings, AISC and AWS standards, and inspection requirements, including installing high-strength bolts and closing connection punch lists.

  • Read and interpret structural drawings, erection plans, and shop drawings; lay out from control points, verify elevations and plumb, and report conflicts before steel is erected.

  • Coordinate with civil, mechanical, and electrical crews to ensure embeds, penetrations, and support steel are correctly placed for cooling towers, generators, transformers, pumps, CDUs, and IT equipment.

  • Follow fall protection, crane, rigging, hot-work, lockout/tagout, PPE, and permit requirements, maintaining a safe work area at height and around active construction and energized yards.

  • Support inspection, punch-list, and turnover activities through building and yard completion.

Essential Skills
  • Minimum 3+ years of iron working experience on commercial, industrial, or heavy-civil structural steel, or equivalent military structural or rigging experience.

  • Ability to read structural and erection drawings and work to AISC connection details.

  • Hands-on proficiency with structural bolt-up, cutting, and the safe use of aerial lifts, ladders, and material-handling equipment.

  • Willingness to work at heights, outdoors, and on a changing construction site.

  • Strong safety mindset supported by current OSHA 10 or equivalent training.

  • Willingness to work extended hours, nights, and weekends during critical construction windows.
