In this role, you'll be involved throughout the building lifecycle — from fabrication and assembly in the yard through pre-shipment inspections and final site installation. You'll inspect building-envelope components, structural and non-structural elements, workmanship, and installation to ensure our buildings meet approved drawings, specifications, quality plans, applicable codes, and client requirements.

If you have a strong eye for detail, experience in building construction, modular buildings, building envelopes, or construction quality control, and take pride in delivering quality work, we want to hear from you!

• Perform quality inspections of modular, skid-mounted, and rigid-frame steel buildings throughout fabrication, assembly, finishing, shipment, and site installation.

• Conduct yard and pre-shipment inspections to verify building condition, completeness, punch-list status, and readiness for shipment.

• Perform dimensional and workmanship inspections in accordance with approved drawings, specifications, ITPs, applicable codes, and project requirements.

• Inspect structural framing, connections, supports, and welding as required to support overall building quality.

• Conduct daily site quality walkdowns and coordinate inspection activities with site supervision, contractors, Quality, Project Management, Engineering, clients, and third-party inspectors.

• Identify, document, and report field modifications, non-conformances, workmanship deficiencies, and incomplete work.

• Verify corrective actions are completed and properly documented.

• Monitor and verify punch-list items through completion and closure.

• Complete inspection reports, checklists, photographs, and other required quality documentation.

• Participate in final site quality inspections, client/TPI walkdowns, building acceptance, and project turnover.

WHAT YOU BRING

• Experience in modular building fabrication, building construction, building-envelope inspection, or construction quality control.

• Experience with modular, prefabricated, skid-mounted, industrial, or commercial buildings is preferred.

• Strong understanding of building-envelope construction and inspection.

• Experience inspecting building components such as walls, roofs, floors, insulation, vapour barriers, cladding, interior finishes, doors, windows, HVAC, penetrations, flashing, trims, and sealants.

• Ability to identify workmanship deficiencies that could impact building-envelope integrity or weather-tightness.

• Ability to read and interpret architectural, building-envelope, structural, fabrication, and installation drawings.

• Ability to interpret project specifications, ITPs, procedures, and manufacturers' installation requirements.

• Knowledge of applicable building codes, standards, and project-specific requirements.

• Experience with NCRs, punch lists, inspection reports, quality records, and turnover documentation.

• Experience with structural steel and welding inspection is considered an asset.

• Strong attention to detail and a commitment to quality.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
