    • Inspect work for compliance with specifications, codes, and drawings.
    • Provide technical support to project supervisors and superintendents.
    • Track and report on project quality control metrics.
    • Support BIM coordination and implementation.
    • Assist in punch list development and project closeout documentation.
    • Promote and apply LEAN principles throughout project phases.

    Project Engineer Qualifications:

    • At least 2 years of experience as a Project Engineer in commercial construction.
    • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field.
    • Experience working on commercial TI, mixed-use, healthcare, or institutional projects.
    • Strong communication skills for interacting with internal and external project stakeholders.
    • Proficiency with tools such as MS Office, Excel, MS Project, Bluebeam, Procore, AutoCAD, and Revit

    Company Benefits:

    • Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
    • Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance, including HSA
    • 401K plan with 6% matching
    • Generous PTO
    • Vehicle Allowance

    Compensation: $70K - $95K salary with an annual performance bonus
