QUALIFICATIONS: Required * Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a closely related technical field. * 5–10 years of progressive professional experience in the construction industry, with demonstrated experience managing contractors in the field, ideally urban infill. * Firm understanding of construction drawings, specifications, and construction documentation workflows (RFIs, submittals, change orders). * Working knowledge of project scheduling tools and methods; ability to develop, read, and critically assess project schedules. * Experience negotiating change orders and managing contractor relationships. * Some procurement experience, including coordinating with vendors and equipment suppliers. * Exceptional organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously across several active project sites. * Strong written and verbal communication skills; comfortable preparing executive-level reports and presenting project status clearly. * Detail-oriented with a disciplined approach to documentation and follow-through.
