No layers, no waiting for approval chains. You'll see your fingerprints on what we ship. The Team: A team of operators defining the future of AI infrastructure.

We recruit A-players from the most innovative companies in the world, and they choose Giga because the work here means more. The Moment : AI doesn't run without power, and that's us. Giga is the picks and shovels behind the AI revolution.

This industry is about to explode, and you'll be in the room where it's already happening.

What You'Ll Do

As Giga's Crane Marshal , you will own the planning, standardization, and field execution of all heavy lifting operations across our data center construction projects. Every critical lift—from setting modular data center skids and generators to transformers, chillers, and structural steel—will move through your process. This is not a dispatcher role.

You'll spend the majority of your time in the field working shoulder-to-shoulder with crane operators, rigging contractors, superintendents, and subcontractors to ensure every lift is engineered, planned, and executed safely and efficiently. Beyond supporting individual projects, you'll build Giga's heavy lift program. You'll develop repeatable lift methodologies, standard pick plans, rigging standards, crane selection guidelines, and planning tools that can be deployed across every site we build.

As our construction program scales, your work will allow hundreds of heavy lifts to be executed consistently, safely, and efficiently. You'll review and challenge lift plans, validate crane selections, verify ground conditions, coordinate logistics, and ensure each pick is executable before equipment ever arrives onsite. At Giga, lifting isn't treated as a routine construction activity—it's one of our highest-risk operations.

You'll own making sure every lift goes exactly according to plan. Where you'll work We are an in-office culture—velocity matters when you're building physical infrastructure, and the best decisions happen in the room. This role is ideally based in our Houston office (remote considered) with extensive travel to active construction sites.

This role should expect significant onsite presence throughout active construction, particularly during major equipment installation and commissioning activities. That said, we will make exceptions for truly exceptional talent if you live outside one of our hubs. If you're the right person for this role, we'll have a conversation about what works.

Responsibilities

Own Giga's heavy lift program across all active construction projects. Develop standardized lifting procedures, rigging practices, crane selection criteria, and engineered pick methodologies that become the company standard across future projects. Build reusable lift plans for recurring installations including modular data center skids, generators, transformers, chillers, switchgear, and other standardized equipment.

Create planning templates, lift checklists, and engineering standards that reduce planning effort while improving consistency across projects. Work directly with crane and rigging contractors to develop comprehensive engineered lift plans for critical and non-routine lifts. Review crane sizing, load charts, lift radii, boom configurations, rigging arrangements, and equipment capacities to validate lift feasibility.

Coordinate sequencing for installation of modular data center skids, generators, transformers, chillers, switchgear, structural steel, and other heavy equipment. Verify ground bearing pressures, crane mat

Requirements

, underground utility conflicts, overhead hazards, and crane access routes prior to mobilization. Lead pre-lift meetings with project teams, subcontractors, crane operators, rigging crews, and safety personnel. Verify
