• Coordinate with design teams to clarify requirements, resolve technical questions, and support interdisciplinary alignment.
• Assist in preparing technical sections of proposals, design scopes, and engineering estimates.
• Present technical findings and review comments to design teams and stakeholders.
• Support the Design Manager by tracking review progress, documenting comments, and ensuring timely resolution.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of design review processes, templates, and workflows.

• BA/BS in civil, geotechnical, electrical and/or structural engineering, construction management, or related field plus 6 years of relevant experience, or demonstrated equivalency of experience and/or education.
