• Up-to-date records and logs for inspections, submittals, RFIs, and change orders.
• Participating in jobsite meetings and preparing and distributing meeting minutes.
• Reviewing plans and specifications to understand scope, materials, and methods of construction.
• Coordination and follow-up of submittals with subcontractors and design consultants.
• Preparing and updating portions of the project schedule in coordination with the project team.
• Permit tracking and supporting documentation for inspections and approvals.
• Supporting jobsite safety by participating in safety meetings and maintaining safety documentation.
• Documenting daily project progress, including taking and organizing photos and field notes.
• Assembling project closeout documentation such as warranties, manuals, and as-builts.

• Proficiency with Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Outlook); exposure to construction software is a plus.
• Eagerness to learn and grow within the construction industry.

As Project Engineer, you will be at the center of how our projects are documented, coordinated, and delivered. You will not be confined to paperwork behind a desk. You will spend your days on active jobsites, learning directly from experienced Project Managers and field leaders, and building the technical and organizational foundation for a long-term career in construction project management.

WHY JOIN STRATICON

• Join a collaborative, entrepreneurial environment where initiative and follow-through are valued.
