Developing small work sharing packages for interoffice execution support.
Traveling as required for client presentations, project related tasks, and training opportunities.
Consulting with design leaders from other disciplines to ensure inter-disciplinary alignment on projects.
Participating in professional society meetings to make new business contacts and keep current with new developments in the industry.
Advising the Lead Engineer of potential design or scope changes.
Producing equipment and construction specifications.
Participating in sales activities including pre-bid meetings, client presentations, scope review meetings, and proposal development.
Establishing the design criteria, incorporating client requirements, estimate and/or scope basis and design basis meeting applicable state, local and federal standards and codes. Ensuring that any requirements for permitting have been established and communicated to the project team.
Producing project designs that are optimal and efficient with an overall emphasis on ease of construction, operability, and maintenance. The completed design should meet the specifications and expectations of the client.
Reviewing and checking vendor information and other discipline information needs for process engineering input.
Producing estimate level preliminary designs and material take-offs suitable for the level of estimate being performed on a project.
Assisting the designers in resolving routine layout and detailing problems. Ensuring that sufficient information and details are provided for completion of engineering drawings.
