• Coordinate sitework, underground utilities, foundations, slab activities, tilt wall panel construction, panel erection, structural steel, building dry in, MEP trades, interiors, and closeout activities
• Plan and coordinate tilt wall sequencing, including panel layout, casting activities, erection logistics, crane coordination, bracing, structural connections, and associated field operations
• Conduct daily site walks and proactively identify schedule, quality, constructability, and coordination issues
• Work closely with Project Managers and Project Engineers to resolve RFIs, submittal issues, drawing conflicts, and field conditions
• Lead subcontractor coordination meetings and communicate expectations clearly to all project partners
• Maintain accurate daily reports and field documentation
• Monitor manpower and subcontractor performance against project schedule requirements
• Coordinate inspections with local jurisdictions and project stakeholders
• Maintain a clean, organized, and professionally managed jobsite
• Drive Uprite’s safety expectations and ensure subcontractors comply with project safety requirements
• Manage quality control throughout construction and address deficiencies before they impact subsequent work
• Lead punch list, turnover, and field closeout activities
• Build strong working relationships with owners, subcontractors, design teams, inspectors, and internal Uprite team members
What We’re Looking For
• Proven Superintendent experience with a commercial General Contractor
• Tilt wall construction experience is required
• Strong ground up commercial construction experience
• Experience independently managing field operations on active construction projects
• Knowledge of tilt wall sequencing, panel construction, erection, bracing, structural coordination, and associated site operations
• Strong understanding of construction drawings, specifications, schedules, and field documentation
• Ability to coordinate multiple subcontractors and scopes simultaneously
• Strong scheduling and look ahead planning capabilities
• Ability to identify field issues early and develop practical solutions before they impact the project
• Strong communication and leadership skills
• Comfortable working closely with Project Managers, Project Engineers, subcontractors, owners, and design professionals
• Strong commitment to jobsite safety and quality
• Ability and willingness to travel based on project assignments
• Must currently reside in Northern or Southern California
