The pay scale listed for this position is generally for candidates that meet the specified qualifications and requirements listed on this specific job description. We provide a competitive compensation package that recognizes your experience, credentials, and education alongside a robust benefits program to meet your needs. Our compensation reflects the cost of labor across several US geographic markets. **WHO WE ARE** For more than 70 years, Cupertino Electric, Inc. (CEI) has been powered by people who've built a reputation for delivering high-profile, complex projects. Real, tangible things that alter the landscape and improve lives. But even more than that, we've built a reputation for integrity. We're problem solvers and innovation seekers. We're team players and safety fanatics. And we always-always-do the right thing. Even when no one is looking. Because what we do here is important, but how we do it is everything. **THE DATA CENTER TEAM** We build mission-critical data centers throughout the U.S. to ensure crucial information accessed by millions of people is always available and secure. For decades, CEI is a leading provider of design, installation and commissioning of 20M+ square feet of data center space totaling over 4 GW of electrical systems-including infrastructure built to support AI-driven technologies. **ABOUT THE ROLE** As a Project Executive at Cupertino Electric, you are responsible for the account management and strategic operations for a portfolio of electrical construction projects. The primary tasks are the successful management of a high-performing team of project managers and associated support staff as well as maintaining and developing client relationships. You will drive the planning, execution, and financial performance of your projects - from bid pursuit to project closeout - using business practices that are consistent with our company values - people, safety, integrity, innovation, and excellence. + **Project Development** Projects are the core building block of our business model. From building relationships with customers, end-users, general contractors and other partner companies, to preconstruction activities and building a management team, our Project Executives lead an A to Z effort in pursuing, pricing, and planning projects. Our PXs are well-versed in construction processes and project management, and have a seasoned, professional approach to securing and managing large, complex construction projects. The PX is responsible for tracking opportunities and maintaining a log of their opportunity pipeline. In the pursuit phase, our PXs are meeting with the general contractors and customers, writing proposals, reviewing terms and conditions and meeting with upper management to communicate the risks and rewards of each pursuit through the Project Charter process. Once the project pursuit is approved, the PX oversees the development of the detailed estimate which serves as the basis for the project budget and manpower schedule. A detailed estimate review with upper management is then scheduled to obtain final approval. If successful, the PX assembles the management staff, coordinates with our field leadership, and oversees the preconstruction activities to ensure we have an advanced plan to execute the work and to schedule a joint field/office job start meeting. The PX is also responsible for weekly monitoring of all activity on the project and reporting the project status to upper management. + **Customer Relationships** PXs are expected to maintain a book of work within their network of contacts and meet informally with them periodically to discuss future plans, position us for work that fits our project profiles, and provide informal assistance that will establish CEI as a preferred partner. The basis for a solid backlog of our ideal project profile, is a solid and growing relationship with key preferred general contractors and facility owners. Building these relationships with integrity and in an ethical manner is a CEI priority. CEI does not "buy" work, provide under the table kickbacks, or remit money or items of significant value to either general contractors or owners. Our value is based on the work we do, and the quality and manner in which we do it. + **People Development** CEI is in the people business because we need people to complete our projects on schedule and within budget. We care not only that we make money on our projects, but that our people are engaged and fulfilled in what they do. Our PXs are expected to prepare and execute hiring plans, and coordinate with Human Resources to identify, screen, interview, evaluate and onboard quality candidates. Onboarding new employees is the responsibility of each PX for staff on their projects, and they serve as the primary mentor and example to their employees. PXs will work with their senior project staff to assess each employee's training and development needs and ensure that each employee has the resources and time to complete these important development activities. The PX should provide leadership and establish accountability for senior staff and ensure that a succession plan is in place for each senior leader and leadership position within their organization. They will also ensure that each jobsite has a clearly defined set of roles and responsibilities, and that each team member has clear direction and understands the expectation in terms of performance and deliverables. In addition, the PX should work with the senior staff to rotate responsibilities on long duration projects to ensure staff have a well-rounded experience on the job, and opportunities for advancement. + **Financial & Risk Management** Project Executives have a primary responsibility and accountability for the financial performance of their projects and the associated risk profile. Once a pursuit is approved, and a scope, price and schedule are agreed to, the PX is responsible to ensure that the risks of the job, and the associated rewards in the form of gross profits, do not fall outside the established profile. Increased risks or reduced rewards must be communicated immediately to upper management, along with a timely recovery plan. The PX is responsible for monitoring their project financial performance on a weekly basis and risk profile on a bi-weekly basis throughout the life of the project. In addition, they are responsible for making sure the project cost codes are accurately translated from the Accubid estimate to the accounting system, and that the manhours and schedule are accurately translated into CEI's labor SEVIR system. + **Safety** CEI PXs are key leaders in promoting and building on our Safety Culture. PXs are expected to participate in quarterly Division Safety Leadership Teams, monthly jobsite PM safety meetings and are responsible for reporting safety incidents on their jobsites to upper management. PXs monitor all the safety activities on each jobsite and assist in the gathering and reporting of key performance indicators during the weekly division staff meeting. **Scope:** Establishes operational objectives and work plans and delegates assignments to subordinates.
