Job Description

ATCS’s Construction Services group is expanding in Virginia! We are seeking an experienced Senior Transportation Construction QA Inspector to join our team in Northern Virginia.

This is a senior-level role requiring strong transportation construction inspection experience, current required certifications, and demonstrated experience managing project records and materials documentation. The ideal candidate will have experience working in a consultant/QA or owner-representative capacity and be comfortable independently handling both field inspection and project documentation responsibilities.

Duties:

• Perform transportation construction inspections on highway, bridge, environmental, traffic, and facilities projects.
• Provide oversight of contractor work crews to ensure compliance with contract documents, plans, specifications, and applicable standards.
• Read and interpret contract documents and verify that safe construction practices are being utilized to produce quality results.
• Write detailed daily progress and inspection reports.
• Maintain complete and accurate project records and documentation throughout the project.
• Manage materials documentation and project materials records/books to ensure required information is complete, accurate, and properly maintained.
• Document materials, labor compliance, safety, estimates, work orders, adjustments, and other construction activities.
• Report on-site activities and daily progress to the Project Engineer using standardized reporting.
• Calculate, verify, and document pay quantities.
• Perform applicable field testing of materials, including concrete slump/air, soil compaction, and HMA.
• Coordinate with contractors, project staff, engineers, and owner representatives to resolve field and documentation issues.

Requirements:

• 6+ years of transportation construction inspection experience, with senior-level responsibility strongly preferred.
• Demonstrated experience maintaining project records on transportation construction projects is required.
• Experience maintaining materials documentation/materials books is required.

• Nuclear Safety and Transportation
• Pavement Marking and Guardrail Installation

Important Experience Requirement

This position requires experience beyond traditional construction materials testing. Candidates must have hands-on experience with the broader project-records and documentation responsibilities associated with transportation construction inspection.
