  • Experience as a Resident Engineer, Construction Manager, or Project Manager on a State Highway System project of at least $30 million.

Responsibilities

  • Review the progress of work to ensure compliance with contract documents.
  • Monitor materials and methods used in construction and inspect finished products before acceptance.
  • Ensure the safety of Construction Management employees and the traveling public by observing contractor operations.
  • Provide directions to staff to maintain complete and accurate contract records.
