• Provide field engineering and construction support, including site visits, responding to requests for information, reviewing shop drawings and submittals, resolving field issues, and verifying that completed work generally conforms to the design intent.
• Plan and execute assigned engineering work within established scope, schedule, and budget, communicate risks and changes promptly, and maintain accurate records of design decisions, assumptions, and calculations.
• Follow established quality-management procedures, complete required design checks and interdisciplinary reviews, incorporate review comments, and ensure that issued deliverables are accurate, complete, traceable, and suitable for their intended purpose.
• Apply safety-in-design principles throughout project development by identifying hazards, documenting design risks, incorporating applicable health, safety, and environmental requirements, and participating in formal reviews as required.
