Do you enjoy taking an idea and turning it into something? Do you ever find yourself marveling at buildings, infrastructure, or landmarks and ask "what does it take to build something like that?" This new role “Regional Safety Engineer – DCPD” is for an experienced Health and Safety (H&S) Specialist, H&S Engineer, or H&S Manager who will support AWS Data Center Planning and Delivery (DCPD) programs. Internally, you will partner with DCPD teams such as Real Estate, Due Diligence, Permitting, Energy, Water, Pre-Construction, Construction, Commissioning, Security and Procurement Teams to achieve health and safety goals and improve our safety culture. Externally, you will engage with General Contractors and AWS Suppliers to confirm/clarify the business expectations for H&S, and look for ways to continually improve H&S of our contracted services. You will work under the direction of H&S Program Specialists within the assigned region (Americas, Europe Middle East Africa, or Asia Pacific/Japan China).
Data Center Planning and Delivery owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.
Key job responsibilities

Search Site Safety Manager Jobs in OhioSite Safety Manager Jobs in Ohio: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies in Ohio sponsor visas for site safety managers?
Ohio's industrial base includes employers across construction, chemical manufacturing, automotive, and energy sectors that have sponsored international workers for safety management roles. Companies operating large facilities in Columbus, Cleveland, and Toledo, including major contractors and manufacturers, have H-1B and PERM filing histories for safety-related positions. Checking OFLC disclosure data by employer and occupation gives a clearer picture of active sponsors.
What visa types realistically apply to site safety manager roles in Ohio?
Site safety manager roles typically qualify as specialty occupations requiring a bachelor's degree in safety management, occupational health, engineering, or a related field, making H-1B the most common path. Employers can also sponsor through EB-2 or EB-3 employment-based green cards using PERM labor certification. The H-1B1 visa applies to Chilean and Singaporean nationals, and E-3 visa applies to Australian nationals, both also requiring specialty occupation status. TN visa does not cover this role.
Which Ohio cities have the most site safety manager visa sponsorship jobs?
Columbus leads Ohio for safety management hiring given its large construction boom and corporate headquarters presence. Cleveland supports significant demand through its manufacturing and healthcare construction sectors. Cincinnati and Dayton see activity tied to automotive suppliers and industrial facilities. Toledo and Akron also generate openings through chemical processing and polymer manufacturing, industries where safety leadership roles are consistently staffed and sometimes sponsored.
How to find site safety manager visa sponsorship jobs in Ohio?
Migrate Mate is the most direct way to find site safety manager roles in Ohio where employers have verified visa sponsorship history. You can search by role and state to surface companies that have filed for safety management positions specifically. This approach saves significant time compared to applying broadly and discovering sponsorship availability only late in the hiring process.
Are there industry-specific factors that affect site safety manager sponsorship in Ohio?
Ohio's concentration in chemical processing, automotive manufacturing, and large-scale infrastructure construction creates sustained demand for credentialed safety managers. Employers in these sectors often require OSHA 30-hour certification or a Certified Safety Professional designation alongside a relevant degree, which strengthens the specialty occupation case for H-1B petitions. Ohio's active pipeline of large public works and energy projects also generates recurring openings where employers have demonstrated willingness to sponsor qualified international candidates.
What is the prevailing wage for sponsored site safety manager jobs in Ohio?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
