Time is not a concept. It exists independent of any observer. It is what enables one object moving at one rate to inhabit the same space as another that is moving at another rate. If time was a human construction, then natural physics is a human construction.
I once thought along similar lines, but the math and evidence just doesn't support any philosophy that claims time as human construction.
The only place where time has no meaning is at the center of a massive singularity. Theoretically, time has no meaning at a quantum level, but most of that goes over my head.
