The RoleAs a Field Engineer, you'll be embedded in active project sites alongside experienced Superintendents and Project Managers, building the technical and operational foundation you'll need to eventually lead projects or crews on your own. You'll own quality control, GPS layout, as-built documentation, and field coordination - the core skills that separate great builders from average ones.
This role is intentionally designed as a development position. High performers will be given increasing responsibility and a clear choice: grow toward Project Management (cost control, client relationships, project execution) or Field Supervision (crew leadership, production, and boots-on-the-ground operations).
What You'll DoField Engineering & Construction Support
- Work side-by-side with Superintendents and PMs to support daily field operations on large-scale renewable energy and heavy civil projects
- Interpret construction plans, specs, and drawings - and make sure the work in the ground matches what's on paper
- Perform layout and verification using GPS and conventional survey methods
Quality Control
- Lead QC processes in the field to ensure all work meets project specifications and contract requirements
- Conduct inspections of installed work and maintain detailed documentation: inspection reports, test results, and daily quality logs
- Identify deficiencies, communicate them clearly, and track corrective actions through to completion
Topcon GPS & As-Built Data
- Operate Topcon GPS equipment for layout verification and field data collection
- Collect, process, and maintain accurate as-built records throughout the project lifecycle
- Keep as-built documentation organized, complete, and aligned with project requirements
Project Documentation & Coordination
- Manage field documentation including drawings, RFIs, submittals, and change orders
- Track quantities installed and assist with progress reporting
- Coordinate with project teams and owner representatives to keep communication tight
What We're Looking For- 1-2 years of experience in construction, field engineering, or quality control - heavy civil, underground utilities, or renewable energy preferred
- Ability and willingness to travel full-time to project sites across the U.S.
- Familiarity with MS Office Suite; experience with Bluebeam or MS Project is a plus
- Strong attention to detail, especially when it comes to documentation and QC tracking
- Clear communicator - you can work with a field crew in the morning and a client representative in the afternoon
- A construction-related degree (Civil Engineering, Construction Management, or similar) is preferred but not required - we value demonstrated field aptitude and work ethic
Your Path ForwardWe're not hiring someone to stay a Field Engineer forever. We're hiring someone who wants to prove themselves in the field and earn a seat at the table - either as:
- Project Manager - Own project execution, manage client relationships, drive cost and schedule performance
- Superintendent - Lead field crews, drive production, and be the person who makes things happen on the ground
The path you choose is up to you. The opportunity to get there is yours to earn.Compensation & Benefits- Annual Salary: $75,000 - $105,000 based on experience
- Medical Insurance: 100% company-paid for you and your family
- PTO: Four weeks annually + 40 hours sick time
- 401(k) with employer match
- Performance-based bonus potential
