SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today, SpaceX is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of making life multiplanetary and expanding consciousness to the stars.
SpaceXSI is building Super Intelligence to help humanity understand the universe. Our teams are building the full Super Intelligence stack: from our Colossus supercomputers, to Grok models, to our suite of applications, including Grok Bot, Grok Build, Grok Imagine, Grok Voice, and X. We re creating a powerful flywheel where more compute trains better models, better models power more useful products, and what we learn from people using those products shapes what we build next.
You will oversee structural contractors and crews building the advanced structural infrastructure for SpaceXSI s Memphis Data Center — including deep foundations, concrete slabs, pile systems, structural steel framing, equipment pads, seismic bracing, and heavy support structures that form the backbone of the facility. If you thrive on hands-on leadership, complex structural construction, and contributing to high-impact AI infrastructure, join us to help deliver one of the most advanced data centers in the world.
This is a full-time, onsite role based in Memphis, Tennessee, with relocation required depending on additional construction locations within the US.
RESPONSIBILITIES:- Oversee and coordinate structural installations including foundations, formwork, rebar placement, concrete pouring and finishing, structural steel erection, embeds, equipment supports, and seismic/wind-resistant systems for SpaceXSI Data Centers.
- Manage and schedule structural contractors, subcontractors, and on-site crews to deliver project milestones on time and to SpaceXSI s exacting quality and reliability standards.
- Ensure all contractors adhere to structural scope, delivering high-integrity foundations and building frameworks critical to supporting massive electrical and mechanical loads.
- Monitor daily progress of structural construction, maintaining detailed logs, red-line drawings, and as-built documentation for all structural elements.
- Develop and enforce aggressive construction schedules while keeping the project on time and within budget.
- Champion and enforce our safety program, building a zero-incident culture across all teams working around excavations, heavy rigging, elevated steel erection, and concrete operations.
- Lead, train, and supervise foremen and structural crews, fostering teamwork and accountability in a high-stakes mission-critical environment.
- Proactively resolve on-site challenges — material delays, technical conflicts, sequencing issues, and coordination with civil, electrical, and mechanical trades — with a strong focus on structural integrity and code compliance.
- Conduct regular site inspections to verify compliance with local regulations, structural codes, safety protocols, and SpaceXSI s stringent quality standards.
- Prepare and present clear progress reports, structural construction metrics, and risk updates to senior leadership.
- 3+ years managing structural construction teams with strong emphasis on large-scale industrial or mission-critical structural projects.
- 3+ years of direct hands-on experience in structural work including foundations, concrete forming/rebar, structural steel erection, and heavy support systems — ideally on data centers, industrial processes, or heavy civil projects.
- High school diploma or equivalency certificate.
