Strong understanding of construction drawings, specifications, standards, and field procedures.
Demonstrated experience working with contractors and multidisciplinary engineering teams.
Strong observation, documentation, and problem-solving skills.
Ability to prepare clear and concise field reports and maintain accurate construction records.
Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
Ability to work independently in a field environment while collaborating effectively with the broader project team.
Commitment to maintaining high standards of health and safety.
Valid driver's licence and ability to travel to project sites in Ottawa and the surrounding region.
Experience with municipal, transportation, civil infrastructure, geotechnical, or similar construction projects would be considered an asset.
Relevant Ontario certifications or industry designations would be considered an asset.
