wbengineering

We are seeking a detail-oriented QA/QC Field Engineer to serve as the operations team's on-site representative during data center construction projects. This role ensures construction quality meets operational requirements before facility turnover.

Responsibilities

  • The QA/QC Field Engineer serves as the guardian of construction and engineering quality, responsible for implementing and monitoring quality management systems throughout the entire project lifecycle.
  • This position bridges the gap between theoretical quality engineering standards and practical construction execution, requiring regular on-site presence at project locations and close collaboration with design engineers, project delivery managers, and commissioning teams.
  • Implement and uphold QA/QC standards by enforcing standardized checklists and acceptance criteria to verify all work meets design specifications and quality standards.
  • Conduct on-site inspections and quality walkdowns, participating in construction site reviews to identify issues or deviations from specifications across all disciplines with emphasis on mission-critical MEP systems.
  • Monitor construction activities for compliance with plans, specifications, and drawings, performing quality control inspections of materials and workmanship.
  • Identify and report safety hazards or discrepancies, ensuring adherence to safe work practices and procedures.
  • Coordinate with cross-functional teams including data center design engineers, project delivery managers, commissioning teams, contractors, and subcontractors to ensure facility construction aligns with operational requirements and best practices.
  • Review data center MEP designs and discipline plans for new builds and fit-outs, providing feedback from an operations perspective to improve maintainability and reliability.
  • Prepare and maintain comprehensive documentation including daily progress reports, inspection records, test results, and as-built drawings.
  • Verify installation process quality meets contract documents, checking labeling, sizes, torque, components, and location.
  • Provide recommendations and solutions for identified issues, not just pointing out problems.
  • Resolve engineering issues and constraints through communication with designers, suppliers, subcontractors, and clients.
