Support our project managers on active jobs, prepare and track submittals and RFIs, visit job sites to see the work performed, help with material takeoffs and ordering, review plans against code, and coordinate with general contractors and inspectors. Regular travel to job sites around Tampa Bay and across Florida (reimbursed).
QUALIFICATIONS- Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering, Construction Management, or a related field (recent grads encouraged)
- Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and good communication
- Willingness to learn to read construction drawings
- Valid driver's license; able to travel to job sites
- A plus: internship/co-op experience, AutoCAD or NEC familiarity, or EIT/PE interest
A clear path to Project Manager, mentorship from an in-house licensed PE (with support toward your own PE), interesting specialized work, direct access to leadership, and life on Florida's Gulf Coast.
