Position Overview
CDI is looking for a motivated and detail-oriented Assistant Project Manager / Project Engineer to support the Project Manager and Superintendent team in the management of a large-scale data center project in Muskogee, Oklahoma.
This position will have a combination of office and field responsibilities. The successful candidate must be comfortable working in both environments and understand that effective project management requires staying connected to what is happening in the field.
The APM/PE will assist with project documentation, plan review, Bluebeam markups, coordination, scheduling, procurement, cost tracking, site logistics, and communication between CDI's project management and field teams.
Because this is a highly constrained site with multiple data center buildings under construction, the ability to quickly understand changing site conditions and communicate those changes accurately will be critical.
Key Responsibilities
- Support the Project Manager with day-to-day project management activities.
- Work closely with Superintendents to coordinate field operations.
- Review construction drawings, specifications, and project documents.
- Perform detailed plan review and identify conflicts or discrepancies.
- Create and maintain Bluebeam markups as site conditions and layouts change.
- Assist with site logistics planning and documentation.
- Track RFIs, submittals, procurement, and project correspondence.
- Assist with project scheduling and updating short-term schedules.
- Track material deliveries and procurement activities.
- Assist with subcontractor and vendor coordination.
- Prepare meeting agendas, meeting minutes, and project documentation.
- Maintain accurate project records.
- Assist with change order documentation and pricing.
- Track quantities, costs, labor, and materials.
- Review daily reports and field documentation.
- Assist with pay applications and monthly billing.
- Coordinate with the Superintendent team to verify completed work.
- Support quality control and project closeout activities.
- Attend project meetings with Whiting-Turner, subcontractors, vendors, and other project stakeholders.
- Communicate project issues to the Project Manager and assist in developing solutions.
- Maintain organized electronic project files.
- Participate in site walks and field coordination meetings.
- Perform other project management duties as assigned.

- Review plans electronically.
- Mark up drawings.
- Document field changes.
- Track revisions.
- Overlay drawings when necessary.
- Communicate changes to the field team.
- Assist with maintaining current site logistics plans.
- Help ensure the field team is working from the most current information.
Candidates who are comfortable working extensively in Bluebeam will be highly valued.
What We're Looking For
The ideal candidate will have:
- 2–5 years of commercial construction experience, preferably with a General Contractor.

- Manufacturing facilities
- Mission-critical construction
- Site logistics
- Civil/site development
- MEP coordination
- Large-scale infrastructure projects
The Right Person for This Job
We are looking for someone who wants to become a strong construction project manager, not someone who simply wants an office position.
The right candidate will be willing to get out of the trailer, walk the site, understand what the Superintendent and trades are dealing with, and use that knowledge to improve project coordination.
You should be:
Detail-oriented. Organized.
Proactive.
A problem solver.
A strong communicator. Comfortable in the field. Willing to learn.
Accountable.
You should also be comfortable asking questions, taking ownership of assignments, and following an issue through to completion.
Travel & Compensation
This is a full-time position based in Muskogee, Oklahoma, with travel required.
CDI offers a competitive compensation package based on experience and qualifications, including applicable travel, lodging, and per diem benefits.
As CDI continues to expand its data center operations, there will be opportunities for advancement into Project Manager and other leadership positions.
Career Growth
This position is part of CDI's larger strategy to establish a strong presence in the Oklahoma data center market.
The successful candidate will have the opportunity to grow with the company as CDI expands into additional data center projects and potentially develops multiple project teams in the Oklahoma market.

Project Assistant Jobs in Oklahoma: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a project assistant in Oklahoma?
Most project assistant roles in Oklahoma require at minimum an associate degree, though a bachelor's degree in business administration, construction management, or a related field strengthens your candidacy significantly. Oklahoma does not mandate a state license for general project assistant work, but roles in construction often expect familiarity with OSHA safety standards, and energy sector positions may require company-specific onboarding certifications. Building proficiency in project management tools and gaining experience through internships at Oklahoma-based firms or state agencies is the most direct path.
Which companies hire project assistants in Oklahoma?
Oklahoma project assistant roles are posted by STO Building, FlintCo, and CBRE and others right now, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Oklahoma's strong energy, construction, and government contracting sectors mean many of these employers are large, long-established organizations with ongoing project pipelines.
Which Oklahoma cities have the most project assistant jobs?
Oklahoma City, Tulsa, and Muskogee have the most project assistant openings in Oklahoma. Oklahoma City dominates because it is home to the state capital, major energy company headquarters, and a large federal government contracting presence, while Tulsa's industrial base and engineering firms drive demand there, and smaller markets like Norman benefit from the University of Oklahoma's administrative and research project needs.
Are there remote project assistant jobs in Oklahoma?
Yes, though they are less common than fully on-site roles. About 0% of project assistant openings tied to Oklahoma are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting the fact that many project assistant duties involve on-site coordination, physical document handling, or direct team support. The portions of the role most likely to go remote are administrative tracking, scheduling, and reporting tasks for technology or consulting-focused employers.
How can I get hired as a project assistant in Oklahoma with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is through an administrative or coordinator internship with an Oklahoma energy company, construction firm, or state agency, where project support work is embedded into broader operations teams. Employers like ONEOK and large Oklahoma City-area construction firms regularly onboard entry-level candidates who demonstrate comfort with scheduling tools and documentation. Pursuing an associate degree in business or construction management from Tulsa Community College or Rose State College, or earning a CAPM credential from the Project Management Institute, gives candidates a concrete edge over those with no formal preparation.
Where can I find and apply to project assistant jobs in Oklahoma?
You can find and apply to project assistant jobs in Oklahoma on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers actively hiring in the state. Search the listings, find roles that match your experience and preferred location, and apply directly without needing to create a profile or go through an intermediary step.
