We are looking for a hands-on, early-career Associate Engineer to join our Energy, Reliability & Automation (ERA) team within Global Supply Chain Engineering. This role is primarily field-facing, spending significant time at our North American manufacturing and distribution sites conducting asset assessments, evaluating facility conditions, supporting capital project execution, and performing measurement and verification work.

The ideal candidate has 2-4 years of professional experience, is comfortable working independently in a plant environment, and able to translate what they see in the field into clear findings and actionable recommendations. They adopt new technology quickly and use AI-enabled workflows to raise the quality and speed of their output. This is not a desk role. The right person wants to be on site, doing real work, and building deep facilities engineering expertise across a large and varied manufacturing network.

• Conduct structured on-site assessments across our North American manufacturing and distribution network, physically inspecting and documenting the condition, age, and performance of facility assets including roofing, HVAC, building envelope, fire suppression systems, civil infrastructure, electrical distribution, and utility systems.
• Build and maintain a comprehensive asset inventory across the portfolio, capturing equipment type, manufacturer, installation date, expected remaining useful life, and condition rating for each site and system.
• Identify assets approaching end of life, operating outside of standard, or presenting risk to operations, and flag them with supporting evidence for capital planning prioritization.
• Photograph, document, and organize site findings in a consistent format that can be reviewed remotely by senior engineers and used directly in capital justification packages.
• Develop site condition scorecards that give leadership a clear, comparable picture of facility health across the network.
• Track deficiency closure across sites, following up with site teams to confirm corrective actions are completed and conditions are brought to standard.
• Support fire and life safety inspection programs by accompanying inspectors, documenting findings, and tracking open deficiencies through to closure.

• Perform field measurements and baseline data collection for facility systems, establishing the pre-project performance baselines required for capital justification and post-project verification.
• Support measurement and verification protocols on completed facility projects, collecting post-implementation data and preparing performance reports that confirm results against capital appropriation commitments.
• Support site vulnerability assessments by gathering field data on building construction type, roof age and condition, drainage, structural elements, and exposure to wind, flood, and seismic risk.

• Support engineering reviews for facilities capital projects including roofing, HVAC, building envelope, civil and site work, fire protection, and general facility improvements.
