About The Position

Quanta Power Solutions is seeking an experienced Engineering Scheduler to support the planning, scheduling, and execution of engineering and procurement activities across large and complex Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) projects. This role is part of the Project Controls organization and works closely with Engineering, Procurement, Construction, Project Management, and other project functions to develop and maintain integrated project schedules. The Engineering Scheduler will be responsible for developing, updating, and analyzing engineering schedules; monitoring progress against established baselines; identifying schedule risks and potential impacts; and ensuring engineering activities and deliverables are properly sequenced and aligned with overall project milestones. The ideal candidate understands how engineering activities drive downstream procurement and construction and can translate complex project requirements into clear, actionable schedules.

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Construction Management, Project Controls, Business, or a related field, or equivalent combination of education and experience.
3+ years of experience in project scheduling, project controls, or a related field.
Experience developing and maintaining CPM schedules for engineering, construction, or EPC projects.
Proficiency with Primavera P6.
Working knowledge of engineering deliverables, project execution processes, and engineering-to-procurement-to-construction interfaces.
Strong analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
Ability to interpret complex project information and communicate schedule status, risks, and impacts clearly.
Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel and other Microsoft Office applications.
Ability to work effectively with engineering, project management, procurement, construction, and other cross-functional teams.

Nice To Haves

Experience supporting large-scale EPC, power generation, industrial, infrastructure, or energy projects.
Experience developing engineering schedules from project WBS and engineering deliverables.
Experience with resource-loaded schedules and resource forecasting.
Experience with schedule risk analysis, recovery scheduling, and schedule mitigation.
Knowledge of earned value management (EVM) and engineering progress measurement.
Experience integrating cost and schedule data within a project controls environment.
Experience with Power BI or other project controls reporting tools.
Familiarity with engineering document management and project collaboration systems.

Responsibilities

Develop and maintain detailed engineering schedules in alignment with the overall project schedule, contractual requirements, and project execution plans.
Develop engineering activities, logic, durations, milestones, and relationships within the project schedule.
Coordinate with engineering disciplines and procurement to establish realistic activity durations, sequencing, resource requirements, and deliverable dates that support construction and meet project goals.
Track engineering deliverables, design reviews, approvals, and other key engineering milestones.
Integrate engineering activities with procurement, construction, commissioning, and other project activities to identify and manage key interfaces and dependencies.
Maintain project schedule baselines and incorporate approved changes in accordance with established change management processes.
Perform regular schedule updates, incorporating actual progress, forecast dates, remaining durations, and changes in logic.
Analyze schedule performance, including critical path, near-critical activities, float, schedule variances, and potential delays.
Identify schedule risks and trends and communicate potential impacts to Project Controls and project leadership.
Work with engineering, procurement, and project teams to develop recovery plans and mitigation strategies for schedule delays.
Support engineering progress measurement and forecasting and ensure schedule progress accurately reflects project status.
Prepare schedule reports, dashboards, narratives, and other project controls deliverables for project and management reviews.
Monitor engineering resource loading and identify potential resource constraints that could affect project milestones.
Support development of project schedules during project planning, estimating, and execution phases.
Participate in schedule reviews with project stakeholders and facilitate alignment on engineering priorities, milestones, and forecast dates.
Maintain accurate and timely schedule data in accordance with Project Controls procedures and standards.
Identify opportunities to improve scheduling processes, tools, and reporting across the Project Controls organization.
Perform other duties as assigned.
Ability to travel to job sites and satellite locations as needed.
