• Collaborate closely with engineers, general contractors, and the owner’s representatives to proactively address any field issues or deviations.
• Maintain detailed inspection logs, daily reports, and punch lists; escalate non-conforming work as needed.
• Provide oversight on contractor work to confirm adherence to quality standards, timelines, and safety requirements.
• Participate in field meetings and walkthroughs to track progress and coordinate between trades.
• Assist with review of electrical shop drawings and product data to ensure accurate execution in the field.
• Enforce and promote strict adherence to site safety protocols in accordance with OSHA and local regulations.
• Support inspection activities across multiple work zones as needed.

• Experience working on environmentally focused or energy-efficient facility upgrades is highly desirable.
• Experience with electrical systems in pump stations, treatment plants, or public infrastructure projects is a plus.
• Experience with the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) or other NYC agency standards and procedures is a plus.
• Ability to read and interpret electrical plans, riser diagrams, and shop drawings with precision.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with a focus on documentation and team coordination.
