• Review and approve crew timecards and support payroll coordination
• Maintain quality control standards throughout all phases of construction
• Ensure compliance with permits, inspections, and regulatory requirements
• Conduct Job Hazard Analyses (JHAs) and support ongoing safety initiatives
• Provide field feedback to improve constructability and design
• Coordinate and oversee subcontractor work to ensure alignment with project goals

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Structural Engineering, Construction Management, or related field
• 4+ years of experience as a Field Engineer on heavy civil or infrastructure projects
• Experience working with a large general contractor, preferably on high-value projects ($100M+)
• Strong field presence with hands-on project coordination experience
• Experience with structural steel construction
• Familiarity with tools such as Procore (or similar), Bluebeam, and HCSS
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office (Excel, Word)
• Strong communication and problem-solving skills
• Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, field-driven environment
• Supervisory experience is a plus

Why Join Us

• Work on high-profile infrastructure projects that shape major cities
• Join a respected, industry-leading construction team
• Gain exposure to complex, large-scale builds
• Competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits
• Strong opportunities for career growth and advancement

Additional Requirements
