• Experience as an APM, Senior Project Engineer, Project Engineer, or comparable role with substantive project-delivery responsibility
• Hands-on exposure to project controls, subcontractor coordination, procurement, scheduling, change management, RFIs/submittals, reporting, and closeout support
• Interest in mission-critical/data center, advanced manufacturing, industrial, or water/wastewater work
• Clear willingness to travel nationally, ideally based near a regional office
