Descripción del empleo

As a Lead Field Engineer at C.A. Murren and Sons, you will be considered an important part of the team as you bring your expertise in converting approved engineering designs into controlled field execution. You will directly oversee the work planning, packaging, material management, and quantity verification processes across project sites to ensure technical standards are consistently achieved on the ground. As a Lead Field Engineer, you are expected to manage field resources efficiently using specialized discipline expertise, inspection coordination tools, and rigorous configuration control, aligning the engineering team toward real-time execution with clarity and structure. C.A. Murren and Sons is seeking a Lead Field Engineer that will lead the direct implementation, safety and quality support, and daily enforcement of the project construction plan through testing, turnover, and supplier activities. This position actively enforces project requirements, conducts physical quantity and inspection verifications, handles turnover documentation, and has the technical authority to manage non-conformance when immediate field conditions warrant. Experience at a Department of Energy (DOE) site or a commercial nuclear project under a major Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) contractor is strongly preferred.

Key Responsibilities

• Review drawings, specifications, work packages, vendor submittals, calculations, codes, and quality requirements before execution; identify conflicts, missing information, and constructability risks.
• Perform field walkdowns and data gathering; support package development, sequencing, quantity verification and material takeoffs, field purchase requisitions, temporary works, lift/access planning, work boundaries, and readiness reviews.
• Provide daily technical support to superintendents, foremen, subcontractors, survey, work planning, and craft; communicate requirements without informally changing design.
• Prepare and track RFIs, field change requests, design-change inputs, as-found conditions, construction sketches, drawing/model markups, red-lines, and technical resolutions; ensure approved changes are incorporated before affected work proceeds.
• Verify materials and components match approved requirements, line classes, functional classification, manufacturer, model, heat/lot, traceability, preservation, and submittal status before installation.
• Coordinate inspection and test readiness with QC, QA, laboratories, special inspectors, NDE, vendors, and Company representatives; request required inspections and respect hold/witness points.
• Monitor installation for conformance to current documents and approved methods; initiate NCR/CAR controls for unsatisfactory work and coordinate technical/record completion.
• Support test package development and execution, including pressure tests, flushing/cleaning, coating/holiday testing, concrete/soil tests, leak detection, grounding/electrical tests, and restoration as applicable.
• Maintain configuration and as-built records; ensure support/routing/location changes receive engineering approval, especially where stress, seismic, structural, or safety classification could be affected.
• Compile turnover records, resolve punch items, verify redlines/as-builts, and support system/area completion and handoff.
• Champion the project's zero-incident safety culture, verify planned tools/equipment and work controls are suitable, and promptly stop or elevate unsafe or adverse-to-quality conditions.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in civil, mechanical, electrical, construction, or a related engineering discipline; an equivalent combination of technical education and directly relevant field experience may be considered where permitted by the project.
• At least 8 years of field engineering, project coordination, or construction engineering experience in a large process, power, industrial, DOE, or nuclear environment; level and compensation should be calibrated to experience.
• Demonstrated ability to interpret multidisciplinary drawings, specifications, codes, work packages, inspection/test plans, material documents, and approved change processes.
• Working knowledge of ASME NQA-1 and DOE O 414.1D graded approach, including configuration control, quality records, nonconformance control, and independent inspection interfaces.
• Experience coordinating work packages, RFIs, materials, QC/NDE, testing, redlines, and turnover documentation.
• Ability to perform frequent field walkdowns and work day/night shift, overtime, or weekends as required.
• Preferred DOE or commercial nuclear construction experience and familiarity with 10 CFR 830 Subpart A.

Requirements

• Valid driver’s license
• Must be a U.S. citizen
• Participation in pre-employment and random drug screening program
• Subject to background screening
