Construction Project Manager - EV Charging

Who we are

Atoms is building the machines that power the next era of progress.

Over the last decade, software has transformed the digital world. But the physical world, where food is made, minerals are mined, goods are moved, and industries are run, remains far less intelligent, far less efficient, and far more constrained. We’re changing that.

Atoms builds Physical AI— real-world robots for the industries that move civilization forward, starting with food, mining, and transport. Our systems are designed to understand, predict, and control the real world with precision, turning complex physical operations into something more reliable, more scalable, and more productive.

This work requires more than robotics. It requires deep integration across hardware, software, AI, operations, manufacturing, and real estate. We don’t just build machines in a lab. We deploy them into real environments, operate them, learn from them, and improve them until they work at scale.

We are roboticists, engineers, operators, and builders. We believe the next great technology companies will not only transform information, but the physical systems that shape everyday life.

If you want to work on hard problems with real-world impact, join us.

What you’ll do

Project Execution

• Manage planning and construction for EV charging infrastructure projects from site selection through commissioning and launch, overseeing permitting, utility coordination, design review, and construction across multiple simultaneous sites
• Track and manage critical path milestones across permitting, utility interconnection, and construction phases, proactively identifying schedule risks and resolving blockers before impacting go-live timelines
• Build and maintain accurate project budgets to maintain high cost fidelity throughout the project cycle
• Supervise and direct consultants and contractors to ensure project imperatives, schedule, and budget are maintained

Utility & Grid Coordination

• Partner directly with utility providers to manage power availability assessments, transformer upgrade timelines, service agreements, and energization scheduling to keep charging sites on track
• Coordinate electrical infrastructure requirements across engineering, grid, and construction teams to ensure design specifications, load calculations, and switchgear/transformer specs align with utility interconnection requirements

Permitting Process

• Manage permitting processes across multiple AHJs, navigating zoning requirements, electrical inspection schedules, environmental compliance, and state/local EV infrastructure regulations to keep projects on schedule
• Build and maintain regulatory tracking systems across permit applications, inspection checkpoints, AHJ communications, and environmental sign-offs to ensure zero compliance gaps across a multi-site project portfolio

What we’re looking for

• 4-8 years of experience in the construction of commercial charging infrastructure projects
• Strong experience managing construction budgets across all project phases from diligence through project delivery
• Ability to build and maintain comprehensive critical-path construction schedules tracking full project lifecycle
• Ability to verify construction quality and flag inconsistencies or risks proactively
• Strong organizational, communication, and project management skills
• Ability to manage and coordinate multiple projects and stakeholders simultaneously

Why join us
