• Ensure the correct integration of civil designs with the requirements of electrical equipment and electromechanical layouts.
• Participate in the technical evaluation of bids from civil works contractors.
• Supervise the on-site execution of civil works, ensuring compliance with designs, technical specifications, deadlines, and quality and safety standards.
• Manage the technical interface with civil contractors, quality control laboratories, and other stakeholders.
• Resolve technical problems and non-conformities that arise during the construction phase.
• Review and approve material testing and quality control protocols (concrete, steel, soil compaction, etc.).
• Collaborate in carrying out feasibility studies, geotechnical, topographical, and hydrological studies.
• Participate in the preparation of technical documentation necessary for obtaining construction licenses and permits.

Qualifications and Experience:

• Education: University Degree in Civil Engineering. A Master's degree or specialization in Structural Engineering, Geotechnics, or Construction Project Management will be positively valued.
• Experience:
• Minimum of 7 years of demonstrable experience in the design and/or supervision of civil works, preferably in industrial, energy, or infrastructure projects.
• Specific experience in high-voltage electrical substation projects will be highly valued.
