Careers

Build what everything else runs on.

AI and cloud exist because someone delivers the data centers behind them, clean and on schedule. Our people commission and oversee that infrastructure across the US and EMEA. If that is work you want your name on, we would like to meet you.

2,500+ MW of hyperscale commissioning oversight · US + EMEA

The work

Every project here is critical infrastructure.

We commission and oversee hyperscale campuses, HPC facilities, and the electrical and mechanical plant that keeps them running. The systems we hand over carry some of the most depended-upon workloads in the world, and on a team our size, your work is visible in every turnover.

How we work

A small, senior team with room to do your best work.

We go where the projects are, so field roles mean time on-site and travel, and we are upfront about that from the first conversation. In return, the work is yours: your scope, your judgment, and colleagues who take the craft as seriously as you do.

In the field

The work happens on-site.

Our teams work on active campuses in the US and EMEA, embedded with general contractors and trade partners. Field roles typically run 12 to 24 months on a single program, with travel and living support arranged for the assignment.

Judgment first

Your judgment is the product.

Through Quality in Action™ we develop quality standards together with the crews doing the work, and we trust our people to apply them. You carry real responsibility from the start, with senior colleagues a phone call away whenever you want a second opinion.

Technology in its place

Digital intelligence screens. Human judgment decides.

We capture quality data as the work happens and screen it with software built for the field. It points to what needs attention, and the decisions stay with human judgment. We built it to support judgment, not to replace it.

We hire and operate by four values we call GRIT: Gratitude, Resilience, Ingenuity, Trust. Read what each one means on the About page.

Who we hire

Openings change as programs move, and the openings page is always current. These are the four disciplines we hire year after year.

Quality & Safety

QualitySafety

QA/QC managers and inspectors who hold an independent line on quality, and safety officers with stop-work authority. Both report independently, so quality and safety never answer to the schedule.

Project Controls & Support

Controls

Schedulers, cost engineers, document control, and BIM/VDC coordinators keep large programs measurable and honest. Some roles are remote-friendly with periodic site time.

Early in your career? We take a small number of interns and apprentices onto live programs, working alongside senior commissioning professionals from day one. Introduce yourself and tell us what you are studying.

What we look for

Credentials matter, and so does character.

Credentials we value

Beyond the resume

Mission-critical experience transfers well. Many strong commissioning and construction people started in power generation, LNG, petrochemical, or renewables long before their first data hall. If you have delivered projects where reliability was non-negotiable, that background counts here.

If your certification list is shorter than the one on the left, apply anyway. We fund continuing education and certifications, and we would rather develop the right person than wait for a perfect resume.

What we offer

We are building a company of owners. The package is built to match.

  • Up to 50% profit-sharing, on top of competitive pay
  • Premium medical, dental, and vision, plus a wellness plan
  • Roth IRA / 401(k) with a generous employer match

How hiring works

Good hiring starts before there is an opening.

We build relationships with people whose work we respect, sometimes years before the right role opens. If what you have read here fits you, the conversation can start now, whether or not your title is on the openings page.

Step 01

Introduce yourself

Apply to an open role, or email [email protected] with a short note about your background.

Step 02

Meet the team

You talk with someone who has done the work you would be doing, and the conversation goes both directions.

Step 03

The GRIT interview

A structured, values-based interview. We send you a preview of the role and the format ahead of time, so nothing is a surprise.

Step 04

Offer and first assignment

Clear terms, a prompt decision, and a first assignment matched to your experience.

If the timing is not right, we stay in touch and check back when it might be. In the meantime, follow PGCIS on LinkedIn to see how we work.

Questions

Common questions.

How much travel should I expect?

It varies by role, and every opening states it clearly. Field construction and commissioning roles are based at the project, often for assignments measured in months. Lead engineering roles usually involve 50 to 75% travel. Some project controls and documentation roles are remote-friendly with periodic site visits.

Do you hire full-time, contract, or both?

Both. Many field roles are W-2 positions with full benefits, and some senior site assignments run as contract engagements. Each opening states its structure, and for senior candidates we can often shape the arrangement around your situation.

Where do you hire?

Across the US and EMEA. We are headquartered in Plano, Texas and Eschborn, Germany, and our field teams are based wherever the projects are. Multilingual candidates are welcome; the team currently works in English, German, Turkish, Spanish, and Arabic.

I come from power, LNG, or heavy industrial. Should I apply?

Yes. If you have delivered quality under mission-critical constraints in power generation, oil and gas, petrochemical, battery storage (BESS), or renewables, your experience transfers well, and we will train you on the data center specifics.

My role is not on the openings page. Should I still reach out?

Yes. The openings page reflects what we are actively filling, and programs move quickly. If you have hands-on commissioning, construction management, project controls, or quality experience on critical infrastructure, email [email protected] and introduce yourself. We read every note.

PGCIS is an equal opportunity employer. We evaluate candidates on qualifications, merit, and the standard they hold, without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or any other protected characteristic.
