Job summary

Quest Oracle Community is seeking Field Engineers to support large heavy civil infrastructure programs across highways, bridges, transit, airports, and water facilities. You will verify field work against approved documents, maintain daily records, and support close-out with as-built documentation.

Responsibilities range from monitoring daily activity to witnessing testing, managing RFIs, and ensuring accurate pay quantity reviews. Strong documentation and communication are essential.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in civil engineering, construction engineering, construction management, or structural engineering, or related field, or equivalent combination of education and experience.
• 5+ years of field engineering or construction management experience for large (> $500M), complex heavy-civil infrastructure projects.
• Working knowledge of construction plans, specifications, submittals, and RFIs, and ability to interpret them against field work.
• Experience maintaining construction field records, including daily reports, quantity records, and documentation of site conditions.
• Working knowledge of construction materials testing, acceptance procedures, and QA documentation on heavy civil projects.
• Experience with industry standard construction document control and field documentation software (e.g., Bluebeam Revu, Adobe Acrobat, Procore, e-Builder, Aconex).
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite/Office 365.

Responsibilities

• Monitor daily construction activities against the approved plans, specifications, and permit conditions, and document what was built, where, and under what conditions.
• Prepare and maintain project field records, including daily reports, quantity records, photographs, and logs of site conditions, delays, and directives.
• Verify installed quantities and work in place against contract pay items, and support review of the progress payment applications.
• Review submittals, shop drawings, and material documentation for conformance with the contract documents, and track them through to disposition.
• Coordinate requests for information among the contractor, the designer of record, and the program team, and drive responses to closure so field work is not held up.
• Witness and document acceptance testing and materials sampling under the project quality assurance program, including concrete, asphalt pavement, and earthwork, and record nonconforming work until it is corrected.
• Verify structures work against approved shop and working drawings, including falsework and shoring, reinforcing steel placement, and structural concrete placement, before the contractor proceeds.
• Compare schedule updates and look-ahead plans against observed field progress, and flag deviations that put milestones or access windows at risk.
• Document field issues, differing site conditions, and changed work as they occur, so the programs position on changes and claims rests on contemporaneous records.
• Support construction oversight in and around active corridors and operating facilities, confirming that approved work windows, protection, and access restrictions hold.
• Support close-out, including punch list tracking, verification of as-built records, and turnover documentation.
