• Enforce site safety standards and collaborate with internal safety teams to support audits, toolbox talks, and training initiatives
• Identify cost efficiencies and constructability improvements without compromising safety or performance
• Maintain accurate documentation of project progress, changes, and lessons learned
• Provide progress reports and installation updates to internal stakeholders and leadership
• Support continuous improvement by helping establish best practices and standardized construction processes
• Mentor technicians and operations staff on construction fundamentals and field best practices
