About The Position

Amentum is seeking a high performing Project Engineer II to lead the technical execution of High Hazard / High Consequence projects. The Project Engineer II is responsible for the technical oversight of engineering activities for simple to complex design projects. Project Engineers maintain a close working relationship with Project Managers, Project Engineering Managers, Supervising Discipline Engineers, and Managing Discipline Engineers to ensure superior engineering performance. Project Engineers are assigned to lead smaller teams of Supervising Discipline Engineers on small-to-mid size design scopes and/or during later project phases (Construction support) or may lead a discrete subset of disciplines on large-scale complex projects. This is a great position for those who seek solving technical challenges with an entry into project management. Supporting the technical execution of projects for the Department of Energy, Department of Defense, Commercial Nuclear, and other Industrial markets, the Project Engineer II applies both engineering knowledge, management and leadership skills throughout the full lifecycle of projects. The Project Engineer II must possess a high aptitude for coordinating multi-disciplinary technical teams (Supervising Discipline Engineers), through the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPCm) project lifecycle.
