• Maintain site logistics, access controls, housekeeping, temporary protections, outage coordination, hot-work and other permits, material staging, and protection of historic building elements and ongoing operations.
• Coordinate secure-area work, badging, access, and cleared escorts; protect CUI and follow the project security requirements, DD Form 254 direction, and customer/site procedures.
• Ensure accurate daily field documentation, including manpower, work performed, constraints, inspections, deliveries, incidents, progress, and schedule impacts; provide timely information for RMS/QC daily reporting.
• Attend the preconstruction conference and all required coordination meetings; communicate fluently in English with Government representatives, subcontractors, trades, and project staff.
• Lead the project through commissioning support, training, closeout documentation, punch completion, and final Government acceptance.

• Minimum 10 years of construction experience, including at least 5 years as a superintendent on projects of similar size and complexity.
• Demonstrated superintendent experience on federal design-build renovation projects; USACE or Department of Defense project experience strongly preferred.
• Relevant experience with secure ICD/ICS 705 projects, including SCIF or comparable controlled-space construction and multidisciplinary building systems coordination.
• Working knowledge of UFGS quality control, USACE three-phase control, EM 385-1-1, OSHA requirements, and federal construction documentation practices.
