Job Description

This role offers the opportunity to work on challenging and rewarding capital projects across the food & beverage, specialty chemicals, consumer products, oil & gas, and industrial manufacturing sectors. Our team supports both greenfield and brownfield EPC projects, ranging from facility expansions and process improvements to new production facilities and large-scale infrastructure investments.

As a Project Engineer II, you will serve as a key link between project management, engineering disciplines, clients, vendors, and construction teams. You will help drive projects from early development and design through procurement, construction, startup, and closeout while gaining exposure to all phases of EPC project execution.

This is an excellent opportunity for an engineer who enjoys both the technical and project management sides of the business and is looking to develop into a future Project Manager.

Responsibilities

  • Support Project Managers in planning, organizing, and executing EPC projects from concept development through startup and turnover.
  • Coordinate multidisciplinary engineering activities and ensure deliverables are completed safely, on schedule, and within budget.
  • Assist with project scope development, execution planning, budgeting, scheduling, and forecasting activities.
  • Monitor engineering progress and communicate project status, risks, and critical issues to project leadership.
  • Facilitate communication between engineering disciplines, procurement, construction, vendors, and client stakeholders.
  • Review engineering deliverables for completeness, quality, and alignment with project objectives.
  • Assist with development of project schedules and resource plans and support schedule recovery efforts when required.
  • Participate in client meetings, design reviews, constructability reviews, and project status meetings.
  • Support preparation of cost estimates, change orders, and contract modifications.
  • Track project performance, identify scope changes, and assist with management of project risks and opportunities.
  • Coordinate engineering support during procurement, fabrication, construction, commissioning, and startup activities.
  • Assist with project documentation, progress reporting, meeting minutes, action item tracking, and closeout activities.
  • Support quality management processes and ensure project deliverables comply with client and company requirements.
  • Travel periodically to client sites, manufacturing facilities, and project locations as required.

Qualifications

Required

  • Bachelor's Degree in Engineering from an accredited university.
  • 3-8 years of engineering, project engineering, or project execution experience.
  • Experience supporting industrial, chemical, food & beverage, oil & gas, manufacturing, or EPC projects.
  • Strong understanding of engineering workflows and project execution processes.
  • Ability to coordinate activities across multiple disciplines and stakeholders.
  • Strong communication, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications.

Preferred

  • Experience within an EPC, consulting engineering, owner/operator, or industrial project environment.
  • Exposure to project scheduling, budgeting, cost tracking, or project controls.
  • Experience supporting construction, commissioning, or startup activities.
  • Experience working on both greenfield and brownfield capital projects.
  • EIT certification or progress toward professional registration.
  • Interest in pursuing Project Management as a long-term career path.

Why Join Zachry?

  • Work on complex and impactful industrial projects across multiple industries.
  • Gain exposure to the full EPC project lifecycle.
  • Collaborate with experienced Project Managers, Engineering Managers, and technical leaders.
  • Develop both technical and project management skills.
  • Build a career path toward Project Manager, Senior Project Manager, and Project Leadership roles.
  • Join a company with a long-standing reputation for delivering innovative engineering solutions and successful project outcomes.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
