We have an opening for a Field Engineer. As a Field Engineer in the Project Management Office (PMO), you'll provide advanced technical and administrative oversight for construction projects. This includes managing our Mission-Driven Craft Labor Contract (MDCL) and other subcontracts that impact on the Laboratory's critical infrastructure (structures, systems, and components). You'll be the technical support for these subcontracted projects, responsible for coordination with the project construction manager in planning, coordinating, and communicating all construction activities with various Laboratory stakeholders including the design team, integrated safety team, project controls analysts and project manager. The PMO delivers comprehensive engineering, design, estimating, construction, and project management services to support LLNL's cutting-edge research in defense, global security, laser science, bioscience, and more. We pride ourselves on providing cradle-to-grave infrastructure services, ensuring projects are delivered safely, collaboratively, and reliably with a unified One Team vision. You will Ensuring safety compliance: Adhere to safety regulations and quality standards throughout all project phases. Coordinate high risk activities with the construction manager and integrated safety team. Monitor subcontractor’s safety program for compliance with LLNS-approved project-related safety programs and enforce subcontractor’s adherence to these safety programs. Monitor subcontractor’s schedule and proactively manage time-critical issues to ensure project milestones are met. Coordinate/schedule “hold-point” and/or special “safety hold-point” inspection. Site surveys and assessments: Conduct inspections and evaluations of work sites to identify potential problems and suggest improvements in coordination with the Construction Manager & Subcontract Technical Representatives. Monitor project progress, identify potential issues, and facilitate resolution of technical issues between facility operators to minimize risks. Documentation and reporting: Contribute and create detailed technical reports, daily reports, document maintenance procedures and repairs, maintain organized and detailed project records, including documentation of any project changes that may affect the schedule, design, scope, or cost. Collaborate with other engineers, technicians, project managers, and clients.
