Field Engineer (Concrete Scope)

Job Description

Job Description

The Field Engineer will support construction operations on a hyperscale, mission critical project with emphasis on precision in concrete and foundation scopes. The role ensures accurate layout, documentation, sequencing, and technical compliance during high-volume, fast-track construction involving extensive concrete and heavy civil elements.

Requirements

· Perform survey layout, elevations, and dimensional checks for formwork, embeds, anchor bolts, and rebar placement.

· Review shop drawings, rebar details, and post-tensioning layouts to ensure conformance with design.

· Track pour cycles, coordinate logistics for ready-mix deliveries, and verify compliance with mix designs and curing protocols.

· Monitor field testing (slump, air, temperature, cylinders) and confirm corrective actions for non-conforming results.

· Maintain detailed concrete pour logs including placement sequence, finish type, weather impacts, and testing results.

· Draft RFIs and coordinate with design teams to resolve field issues like rebar congestion, embed conflicts, or formwork tolerances.

· Assist in planning mass pours, including sequencing of trucks, pump placement, finishing crews, and curing strategies.

· Support QA/QC through daily inspections of reinforcement, formwork, and post-tension stressing documentation.

· Update as-built drawings to reflect rebar, PT tendon, sleeve, and embed changes.

· Collaborate with testing labs, suppliers, and subcontractors to ensure quality and schedule alignment.

Qualifications

· 3–7 years of field engineering experience with emphasis on concrete, foundations, and structural systems.

· Proficiency in survey instruments (total station, GPS, laser levels) for layout and verification.

· Strong knowledge of ACI, ASTM, and PCA standards governing structural concrete work.

· Experience supporting mass pours, mat foundations, and elevated post-tensioned decks.

· Ability to interpret structural drawings, rebar shop drawings, and post-tensioning installation details.

· Familiarity with curing methods (water, blankets, compounds, steam), finishing techniques, and tolerance requirements.

· Proficient in construction management software (Procore, BIM tools, scheduling systems).
