Design Manager

The Boldt Company, a subsidiary of the Boldt Group, is hiring a Design Manager to lead planning, design, and preconstruction for complex projects. The role aligns owners, engineers, trade partners, and project teams while influencing scope, schedule, cost, risk, and constructability on power, renewable energy, and industrial projects.

Responsibilities:

• As a Design Manager, you'll be at the center of those decisions, leading the planning, design, and preconstruction efforts that set complex projects up for success
• This is more than a design coordination role. You'll serve as a trusted leader and strategic partner, bringing together owners, engineers, trade partners, and project teams to solve challenges, align priorities, and turn big ideas into buildable solutions
• From concept development through construction readiness, you'll influence key decisions around scope, schedule, cost, risk, and constructability on major power, renewable energy, and industrial projects
• Whether you're leading design workshops, facilitating critical project decisions, or helping teams navigate complex challenges, your leadership will directly influence how projects are delivered

Requirements:

• 10+ years of experience in design management, preconstruction, project management, or EPC project delivery in power, renewables, or heavy industrial project environments
• Proven ability to lead design and preconstruction phases of complex construction projects
• Experience coordinating with engineering firms, architects, and construction teams
• Strong understanding of scope, cost, schedule, and constructability integration
• Experience with risk management, contract development, and procurement strategy
• Ability to lead cross-functional teams and drive alignment across stakeholders
• Strong communication skills with the ability to facilitate, challenge, and influence decisions
• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Architecture, or Construction Management
• Experience with Target Value Design (TVD) or Lean design practices
• Professional certifications (PE, RA, DBIA)
• Background in both project execution and preconstruction/design phases
