Serve as Oracle’s PMO Lead providing governance and oversight to the Developer-led program and GC delivery. Own the PMO cadence, integrated schedule alignment, and risk/change governance for Oracle’s interests, ensuring Oracle-specific gates—standards, InfoSec onboarding, LV/DCIM integrations, QA/QC, and commissioning acceptance—are fully embedded in Developer/GC plans. Act as the single source of truth for status and decisions, challenge assumptions where needed, and drive timely, documented resolutions. Partner with the Developer’s program team and GC to maintain scope discipline, protect lifecycle reliability and security requirements, and enable predictable design, procurement, construction, commissioning, and turnover outcomes that meet Oracle’s acceptance criteria.
Key Responsibilities:
PMO governance and cadence
- Establish and run the operating rhythm: weekly tactical, bi-weekly risk, monthly executive steering, and change control board (CCB) sessions.
- Maintain PMO charters, RACI, decision logs, action trackers, and meeting artifacts; enforce single source of truth.
Integrated master schedule (IMS) and critical path
- Own the IMS for Oracle scope; coordinate interfaces with GC’s schedule; ensure LV milestones, long-leads, FAT/SAT, and L1–L5 commissioning are fully integrated.
- Drive look-ahead planning and float management; escalate threats to critical path with clear recovery options.
Risk and issue management
- Maintain the joint risk/issue register; quantify cost/schedule/operability impacts; track mitigations and contingencies.
- Lead top-risk reviews; ensure triggers and response plans are actionable and assigned.
Change control and scope governance
- Chair or co-chair the CCB for Oracle-impacted changes; ensure CRs include technical, cost, schedule, and security assessments.
- Prevent scope creep and enforce standards/acceptance criteria alignment; manage configuration control for drawings/specs.
Cost control, procurement interfaces, and commercial hygiene
- Partner with Cost Manager/Sourcing/Contracts to align commitments, cash flow, and earned value to schedule progress.
- Track long-lead equipment, vendor deliverables, and OEM services; drive expediting where required.
Reporting and analytics
- Produce weekly dashboards and monthly executive reports (KPIs: safety, schedule, cost, quality, risks, changes).
- Create clear, visual status for gates (30/60/90, Ready-for-Install, Ready-for-Energization, Ready-for-Cx, Turnover).
Coordination and stakeholder management
- Orchestrate interfaces across Oracle Technical Authority (LV/Network/DCIM), QA/QC, Commissioning, Construction Managers, and external partners (Developer/GC/A/E/OEMs).
- Resolve cross-functional conflicts by framing options, impacts, and recommendations; document decisions.
Quality, commissioning, and turnover alignment
- Ensure QA/QC plans, ITPs, FAT/SAT, and commissioning L1–L5 activities are sequenced correctly and tied to acceptance criteria.
- Track punchlist and defect closure to turnover; ensure O&M/as-built deliverables are on the path to first-pass acceptance.
Compliance and security
- Coordinate InfoSec onboarding for vendors; ensure schedule accounts for access approvals, hardening reviews, and data-handling requirements.
- Maintain audit-ready documentation for standards and compliance checkpoints.
Qualifications:
Minimum qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in engineering, construction management, or related field (or equivalent experience).
- 6–10 years of program/project management in mission-critical construction (data centers, semiconductor, hospitals, large industrial), including direct coordination with GC/A/E/trades.
- Proven experience running PMO cadences, IMS integration, risk/change control, and executive reporting.
- Proficiency with scheduling and controls tools (e.g., Primavera P6/MS Project for review, Excel/Sheets, Power BI/Tableau for dashboards).
- Strong RFI/submittal/change order workflow understanding and documentation discipline.
- Excellent communication, stakeholder management, and conflict resolution skills.
Preferred qualifications
- PMP or PgMP; LEED AP, CxA, or CM-Lean a plus.
- Experience with large multi-phase campuses and overlapping build/commission/turnover cycles.
- Familiarity with LV/data center systems (structured cabling, security, OOB networks) and integration to DCIM/BMS.
- Earned value management and cash-flow forecasting experience; exposure to design-build and EPCM contracts.
- Background working with OEMs on long-leads and FAT/SAT coordination.
Core competencies
- Governance mindset: Drives clarity, accountability, and disciplined decision-making.
- Critical-path focus: Anticipates schedule threats and orchestrates recovery.
- Analytical rigor: Converts complex inputs into actionable dashboards and exec-ready narratives.
- Scope and change discipline: Protects standards and acceptance while enabling delivery.
- Collaboration under pressure: Aligns Developer, GC, and Oracle teams around realistic, measurable plans.
Success metrics
- Critical milestones achieved on or ahead of plan (design gates, long-lead releases, energization, L1–L5, turnover).
- Risk exposure trend down and mitigations delivered to plan; no “surprise” critical-path slips.
- Change requests processed within SLA with clear impact statements; limited unauthorized scope growth.
- Executive report accuracy and predictability; variance explanations supported by data.
- First-pass acceptance of QA/commissioning gates and turnover documentation.
