The Engineer II performs engineering design review and analysis assignments, usually involving a significant project or several smaller or less complex projects. These projects, by nature of their complexity and difficulty, require the fully competent application of conventional knowledge in a particular field of engineering or science. Through broader and more technically challenging work assignments, you will develop a thorough understanding of policies, methods, and procedures.

• With minimal or no supervision, performs detailed engineering review of plans, as assigned, for compliance with applicable Rules, Regulations, and contract commitments.
• Offers technical advice to field operations and other technical offices.
• Performs work that involves conventional engineering practices but may include moderately complex problems such as the resolution of conflicting design requirements, material standards or coordination of activities among other disciplines.
• Proposes new approaches to problems encountered and makes recommendations for changes in methods, procedures, or designs.
• Drafts technically accurate and timely reports, and responses to letters, faxes, and other forms of communication.
• Interacts with clients to identify and resolve problems around technical expertise.
• Prepares accurate and timely weekly reports and billing on all work performed.
• Communicates the status of the current workload to all appropriate members of the team to ensure the needs of the clients will be met.
