• Integrated delivery coordination: Work closely with civil, track, systems, utilities, stations, operations, testing and commissioning, and project controls teams to support effective multidisciplinary delivery.
• Quality and compliance: Support technical reviews, inspection readiness, change assessment, non-conformance resolution, and implementation of applicable project requirements, standards, specifications, and procedures.
• Reporting and escalation: Provide clear progress updates, issue summaries, technical recommendations, and escalation support to the Construction Manager and project leadership team.
