You'll spend your time where the work is happening, solving real-world technical challenges, building trusted relationships, and helping deliver complex industrial projects from the ground up. If you enjoy seeing your work make an immediate impact and want to be a key technical leader onsite, this is the role for you.
What You'll Do
As a Field Engineer III, you'll serve as a trusted technical resource by:
- Providing technical support on active jobsites and responding to field or client technical issues.
- Reviewing electrical designs and validating installations during construction.
- Serving as the primary liaison between engineering, construction teams, clients, vendors, and partner engineering firms.
- Building strong client relationships through regular communication during and between projects.
- Leading small projects while coordinating across multiple engineering disciplines.
- Supporting project pursuits by collaborating with project managers and estimators on proposals.
- Leading and mentoring team members through effective delegation and technical guidance.
