About Rubix
At Rubix, we design and deliver end-to-end AI data center infrastructure — from site origination and development through to long-term operations. We partner with customers to scale AI with speed, efficiency, and sustainability, backed by secured land, power access, and accelerated delivery models.
What Impact You Will Have
As Planning Manager, you will help Rubix deliver complex data center projects with greater predictability. You’ll build and manage integrated schedules, surface risks early, and keep project teams aligned from planning through commissioning and turnover.
What You’ll Do
-
Own integrated project schedules
- Develop and maintain master schedules across design, procurement, construction, commissioning, and turnover.
- Use critical path analysis to identify risks, dependencies, and schedule impacts before they become blockers.
- Track progress against baselines and provide clear updates on milestones, slippage, and recovery options.
-
Bring structure to planning
- Facilitate planning sessions with internal teams, contractors, consultants, vendors, and delivery partners.
- Align project schedules with scope, procurement plans, resource assumptions, and key decision points.
- Create scheduling standards, templates, reporting cadences, and planning tools that can scale across projects.
