Develop, maintain and report project schedules and cost forecasts; drive corrective actions to hit milestones and financial targets.

Coordinate multi-discipline teams (civil, mechanical, electrical, instrumentation) and third-party contractors to resolve technical issues and enable continuous field progress.

Manage vendor selection, subcontracts, and change orders; ensure deliverables meet specification, quality, and safety requirements.

Perform engineering design reviews, constructability assessments, and site inspections; enforce quality control and compliance with regulatory and safety standards.

Prepare technical reports, progress updates, and present status to senior stakeholders while proactively mitigating project risks.

Skills Qualifications

Must-Have

Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Civil, Mechanical, Electrical) and 6+ years of hands-on project engineering experience in construction or industrial projects.

Proven track record managing on-site projects in the United States with strong schedule and budget ownership.

Proficiency with MS Project or Primavera for schedule control and common engineering software (AutoCAD / Revit).

Experience with vendor / contract management and change-order processes.

Strong written and verbal communication skills for cross-functional coordination and stakeholder reporting.

Eligible to work on-site in the United States and comfortable with regular field presence.

Preferred

PMP or PE certification, or Lean / Six Sigma exposure.

Experience with ERP systems (SAP) and familiarity with local permitting, codes, and OSHA safety standards.

Background in heavy industrial, process, or infrastructure projects with proven site leadership.

Benefits Culture Highlights

On-site, mission-driven teams with clear career pathways and technical mentorship.

Competitive compensation, health benefits, and 401(k) options (details discussed during hiring process).

High emphasis on safety, professional development, and delivering measurable project outcomes.
