ABOUT CMC

CMC Development & Construction is a Texas-based commercial general contractor serving clients across Houston, Dallas, Austin, and San Antonio. Founded in 2016, we deliver higher education, healthcare, municipal, public safety, airport, and commercial projects through general contracting, construction management, and design-build services.

If you are a hands-on construction leader who takes pride in running safe, organized, and productive jobsites, we want to hear from you.

This position coordinates subcontractors, drives the project schedule, oversees quality control, manages site logistics, maintains accurate field documentation, and represents CMC professionally with owners, architects, inspectors, and trade partners.

The ideal candidate anticipates issues, makes sound field decisions, communicates clearly, and creates accountability without sacrificing collaboration. CMC provides its field leaders with the authority, resources, and support needed to deliver successful projects.

  • Identify deficiencies, document corrective actions, and hold subcontractors accountable for timely resolution.
  • Review drawings, specifications, submittals, RFIs, and coordination issues with the project team.
  • Prepare accurate daily reports covering manpower, weather, progress, deliveries, inspections, delays, and significant events.
  • Communicate project status, risks, constraints, and field issues promptly to the Project Manager and leadership.
  • Lead project closeout, punch-list completion, commissioning support, inspections, and owner acceptance.
  • Mentor Assistant Superintendents, Project Engineers, and developing field staff.
  • Serve as CMC’s primary onsite representative and build productive relationships with clients, design teams, inspectors, neighbors, and trade partners.
