The Utility Field Engineer (FE) should be knowledgeable of utility construction (gas, electric, water, sewer) and responsible for assuring compliance with all specifications, standards, codes, and drawings. FE is responsible for all field engineering activities and document control and may be asked to assist with site inspection activities. FE will serve as liaison between the field and the Project Engineer (PE) or Program Manager. The FE is responsible for communicating Requests for Information (RFI) to the PE and ensuring that the results of those RFIs are executed in the field. The FE determines that all required documentation is available prior to scheduled commencement of construction activities.
These are functions a qualified incumbent or applicant must be able to perform with or without reasonable accommodation.
•Documentation, Quality, and Compliance - Manage all project as built drawings and documentation throughout the construction phase of a project, that will be needed for final close out. Assist with material tracking and traceability. Verify compliance with all specifications, standards, codes and drawings. Ensure quality and completeness of project closeout documents. Take clear and legible photos showing installed items and reference their location.
•Technical Guidance – Provide in field technical guidance on projects and documentation when required, escalating any issues to the engineering team for resolution. Meet with the Engineering team to review the design of the project prior to construction. Ensure that construction adheres to the drawings provided, and work with the Engineering team on any variances from design.
•Field Change Management - Works with the field personnel and subcontractors to create the RFI and route for approval. When a response to the RFI is sent back to the field, ensure that the changes detailed in the response are adhered to. Review field-based changes to ensure compliance, safety and quality meet or exceeds project objectives.
•Liaison - Act as a liaison between the field and the Engineering team. All contact with the Engineering team will be coordinated through the Field Engineer. Work with the PE on changes made to the project during the construction phase.
