• Engineer‑in‑Training (EIT) certification preferred or willingness to pursue certification.
• Strong ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, including civil, structural, electrical, and geotechnical plans.
• Foundational understanding of construction processes, testing practices (such as pile load testing), and engineering documentation.
• High attention to detail with strong organizational skills and the ability to maintain accurate, disciplined documentation across multiple engineering workflows.
• Problem-solving mindset with the ability to identify inconsistencies, collect supporting information, and escalate engineering concerns appropriately.
• Strong communication skills, capable of explaining design updates, gathering field information, and collaborating with project managers, engineers, and field teams.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office, especially Excel and Word; exposure to CAD, GIS, drone-capture platforms, GPS machine-control datasets, or similar tools preferred.
• Willingness to learn and support emerging construction technologies, including drone-based surveys, GPS-enabled equipment, and digital field data systems.
• Ability to conduct field work, including walking construction sites, collecting data, observing installation methods, and participating in testing activities.
• Sense of urgency and ownership, able to support fast-paced construction environments and respond quickly to engineering information needs.
• Team-oriented, with the ability to work collaboratively across engineering, operations, warranty, and technology-focused groups.
