Engineering & Construction Innovations, Inc. (ECI)

Oakdale, Minnesota, with project assignment in Minot, ND

$75,000 - $105,000 per year, based on experience

About The Work

Most Engineering and Construction professionals spend their careers working on roads and buildings from behind a screen in an office. Ours spend theirs inside hydroelectric dams, in tunnels and on underground and geotechnical projects that most contractors won’t take on. Our project engineers are in the field from the start, working next to people who have spent their whole careers on this kind of work. If that sounds like the kind of experience you’re looking for, we’d like to hear from you.

What You'll Do

• Implement project quality control plans
• Interpret drawings and specifications, perform quantity calculations and material takeoffs
• Develop weekly look-ahead schedules to help the Superintendent stay ahead of project work
• Field surveying and layout alongside our crews
• Prepare work plans and schedule material deliveries
• Maintain project records, including daily reports, photos, and job cost data
• Support change orders and as-built documentation
• Learn cost tracking and scheduling from project managers who will train you to run your own work
• Learn, collaborate, and innovate on each project

A plus, not a requirement: dam, hydro, tunnel, or geotechnical project exposure; EIT certification; survey or layout experience; an internship with a heavy civil or underground contractor.
