  • Provide technical leadership during construction, including RFI responses, submittal reviews, site observations, and punch list development
  • Perform detailed quality reviews of electrical documents, calculations, and designs to ensure technical accuracy and overall project quality
  • Collaborate with project managers on scope definition, scheduling, staffing, and electrical discipline budgets
  • Work closely with architectural, mechanical, structural, process, and construction teams to ensure integrated design solutions
