Overview
The Quality Field Engineer is a developing field quality role within Construction and Integrated Services (C&IS) that supports implementation of project-specific quality requirements on active construction and design-build projects. The role completes assigned inspections, observations, and records within established procedures and acceptance criteria; receives regular direction and review from the CQC Manager or designated project quality leader; coordinates routine findings with field, project, design, trade-partner, testing, and client representatives; and escalates exceptions, disputed conditions, and decisions outside assigned authority. The Quality Field Engineer helps verify that work, materials, and documentation conform to approved drawings, specifications, submittals, contract requirements, applicable codes, and the BRPH Quality Management System (QMS). The role builds specialized construction-quality capability through increasingly complex assignments while remaining within defined review, approval, and escalation boundaries.
