This is an evergreen talent-pipeline posting open across all six Samet offices — not a specific, currently open position.

Superintendents are the field leaders who turn plans into buildings. At Samet, you'll own day-to-day site operations — directing trades, managing the schedule, enforcing safety, and holding the quality line — so projects finish safely, on time, on budget, and to the standard our clients expect. You are the person who sets the tone on the job site.

This is where leadership shows up in hard hats and look-ahead schedules. You'll coordinate subcontractors, mentor the field team, and work shoulder-to-shoulder with project management to deliver The Samet Way. Whether you're stepping up from a Field Engineer role or running large, complex work, this is where you build your reputation—and the careers of the people around you.

We hire across the full field-supervision ladder and will match you to the right level based on experience and scope:

• Superintendent I — Manages projects start to finish with direct field oversight. Typically 3–5 years of superintendent experience; OSHA 10 or OSHA 30 required.
• Superintendent II — Owns the CPM schedule and leads coordination, pre-install, and schedule meetings on assigned projects. Typically 5–7 years of construction experience.
• Senior Superintendent — The primary field leader on larger or more complex projects, coordinating multiple trades and developing the field team. Typically 7–10 years of construction experience, including 3–5 in a supervisory role.

• Direct and supervise all construction activities on assigned projects, maintaining safe, clean, and productive job sites.
• Develop, own, and update the CPM schedule and four-week look-ahead schedules, sequencing work to optimize flow.
• Lead weekly coordination, pre-install, and schedule meetings that keep trades aligned and the project moving.
• Manage subcontractor performance against scheduled deadlines, confirming manpower, equipment, and materials are sufficient.
• Enforce Samet's safety policies and OSHA requirements; conduct and document daily and weekly safety meetings, toolbox talks, and inspections.
• Lead quality initiatives — setting expectations for inspections and observations and ensuring all required quality forms and platforms are used.
• Review and interpret drawings, specifications, and contracts; coordinate RFIs and resolve field issues.
• Oversee and manage punch lists to closeout, and coordinate inspections and approvals with AHJs and third-party inspectors.
• Maintain project curb appeal, site cleanliness, logistics, and security.
• Partner with the Project Manager to develop and manage subcontractor scopes of work and contribute to the PMP.
• Monitor and document weather, progress, and site conditions, and support permitting and inspection processes.
• Coach and develop Samet field personnel, setting clear performance expectations and supporting career growth.
• Build strong relationships with owners, designers, subcontractors, and trade partners, upholding Samet's professional image.

• Bachelor's degree in construction management, construction engineering, or a related field (equivalent experience considered).
• Construction superintendent experience appropriate to the level (see Levels & Experience above).
• OSHA 10 or OSHA 30 certification (OSHA 30 required for all field associates).
• Proficiency in construction management software — Procore, Bluebeam, and Microsoft Office; scheduling experience a plus.
