Description du poste

Founded 30 years ago, Atlantic Restoration & Waterproofing, Inc. is the largest and most trusted Historic Preservation & Exterior Restoration Contractor in the Mid-Atlantic area. With over 200 full-time employees across office and field positions, we specialize in masonry, concrete, waterproofing, and roofing. We have worked on many landmark projects across the region including the Lincoln & Jefferson Memorials, FBI Headquarters, The Federal Reserve Bank, and the National Building Museum, among many others. At Atlantic, we are committed to preserving our country’s most timeless structures.

The Role: What You’ll Do

The Assistant Project Manager / Project Engineer (APM / PE) is the central information hub for our largest, most complex projects. You will work directly alongside Project Managers and Project Executives to ensure that the flow of information between the field, the office, and the design team is flawless. You won't just be pushing paper; you will be protecting the project's profitability and schedule through meticulous documentation.

• Submittals: You will receive, review, and heavily "scrub" all subcontractor submittals and shop drawings. You must be able to cross-reference their submissions against the architectural specs and contract documents to catch deviations, missing data, or scope gaps before transmitting to the Owner.
• RFI Triage & Management: You will intercept field and subcontractor RFIs. Instead of just passing them along, you will investigate the drawings to see if the answer already exists, formulate proposed solutions, and draft highly professional, clear RFIs for the design team.
• Document & Spec Control: Maintain the absolute "source of truth" for the project. Ensure all subcontractors and field teams are working off the most current drawings, specs, and addenda.
• Subcontractor Coordination: Lead the administrative coordination of multiple trades. You will track their material lead times, ensure their procurement schedules align with our master schedule, and hold them accountable to delivery dates.
• Meeting Governance: Drive the weekly OAC (Owner/Architect/Contractor) and Subcontractor coordination meetings. You will record precise meeting minutes, assign strict action items, and relentlessly follow up with subs and architects to close them out.
• QA/QC & Closeout: Assist in managing the QA/QC process, ensuring installed work matches the approved submittals. Drive the closeout process from day one, aggressively collecting warranties, O&M manuals, and as-builts from subcontractors.

What We’re Looking For

• Experience: 2+ years of experience as a Project Engineer or Assistant Project Manager, ideally working for a General Contractor or on large, multi-trade institutional/government projects.
• Technical Skills: You must have a high level of proficiency in reading and navigating complex architectural drawings, project manuals, and CSI specifications. You know how to find the needle in the haystack.
• Subcontractor Management: You understand the dynamic of holding subcontractors accountable to their contracts and the project schedule. You are firm, professional, and uncompromising on quality.
• Hyper-Organized: You have a natural system for keeping track of details. You don't let emails sit unread, and you understand that a missing document can delay a project.
• Tech-Savvy: Proficiency in construction management software (Procore, PlanGrid, etc.) and PDF markup tools (Bluebeam Revu). Strong Excel skills are a must.
• Communication: You can write clear, professional emails to architects and owners, but can also pick up the phone and talk straight with a field superintendent.
• The "Operator" Mindset: You take accountability for your work. You don't wait to be told what to do next; you look ahead at the schedule and anticipate what the PM or Superintendent will need tomorrow.
