Conduct occasional field visits and site walk-downs to support project development and execution. Ensure proper engineering, design, and project execution practices are followed throughout the project lifecycle. Develop project scopes, cost estimates, and support documentation. Use logic-based scheduling concepts to work with the dedicated Scheduler (Primavera P6 managed by others) to sequence activities, validate critical paths, and understand schedule impacts. Participate in project reviews and root-cause evaluations related to safety, quality, cost, or schedule issues and ensure lessons learned are incorporated into future projects.
