Entry Level Field Engineer

• →Support production personnel by interpreting drawings, specifications, bills of material, vendor information, and work packages under the direction of experienced engineering and production leaders.
• →Observe and learn shipbuilding sequence and trade interfaces, including structural fabrication, module assembly, vessel erection, piping, electrical installation, machinery, outfitting, testing, and commissioning.
• →Perform regular field walkdowns to verify installed conditions, identify interferences or discrepancies, photograph and document conditions, and communicate findings to the responsible supervisor or engineer.
• →Assist with resolving routine design-to-field questions, requesting clarification when design intent, dimensions, routing,
• →material, or access is unclear.
• →Mark up drawings and maintain red lines for as-built documentation; support the controlled incorporation of approved field changes into project records.
• →Assist in planning system routing and equipment installation so that structure, piping, electrical, ventilation, machinery,
• →and access requirements are coordinated.
• →Support preparation and maintenance of work packages, material lists, installation sketches, test documentation, punch lists, deficiency lists, and turnover records.
• →Track assigned technical issues, drawing revisions, material needs, vendor questions, and field actions through closure.
• →Participate in production, planning, engineering, quality control, and project meetings; provide clear status updates supported by current field information.
• →Help verify that materials, equipment, and components match approved drawings, specifications, purchase information,
• →and intended installation locations.
• →Assist with inspections, testing, commissioning, acceptance activities, and closure of punch-list items in coordination with Quality and project leadership.
• →Identify opportunities to improve constructability, sequencing, access, productivity, quality, and prevention of rework, then elevate recommendations through the proper approval process.
• →Learn and follow applicable company procedures, shipyard safety requirements, quality-system controls, contractual
• →specifications, and regulatory or classification requirements.
• →Maintain organized field notes, photographs, calculations, logs, and engineering records in accordance with document-control requirements.
