AECOM is seeking a Field Engineer to support federal facility assessments, construction oversight, quality control, and hurricane recovery work in Kauai, Hawaii.

Assigned scopes may include weatherproofing, interior water damage repairs, debris clearance, utility restoration, and infrastructure recovery.

Working closely with engineers, construction managers, and subcontractors, you will document site conditions, review technical requirements, monitor construction activities, inspect materials and workmanship, and help ensure repairs meet approved drawings, specifications, and project quality standards.
