Layout Field Engineer

Core Responsibilities: Control & Layout•    Set up and maintain permanent horizontal and vertical control throughout the line-and-grade portion of the project.•    Exercise expert use of the Total Station, Robotic Total Station, and/or Theodolite and data-surveying software.•    Apply coordinate geometry and geometric functions to establish accurate survey, data, and layout points.•    Complete layouts accurately, efficiently, and on time, and deliver layout information to the project team for execution. Drawing Review & Verification•    Validate dimensions by reviewing architectural and structural drawings prior to execution.•    Identify discrepancies and conflicts in drawings before work begins and raise RFIs as needed.•    Verify benchmarks and elevations and relay them to the place/finish lead for each pour day, documenting in daily reports. Quality Assurance / Quality Control•    Verify form elevations, embed and anchor-bolt locations, blockouts, and sawcut layout against design.•    Support FF/FL strategy by setting accurate wet-screed and laser-screed control for high-tolerance slabs (routinely FF 50 / FL 35 and stricter in critical aisles).•    Monitor in-place tolerances and document as-built conditions to support closeout.•    Find root cause of layout/quality problems and own corrective action.•    Collect and verify as-built data and generate as-built reports. Coordination & Scheduling•    Engage the project lead on the line-and-grade portion to ensure proper scheduling and sequencing.•    Coordinate layout deliverables to keep placement crews productive and on schedule.•    Communicate daily observations and improvement ideas to project leadership. Safety•    Perpetuate the IKON safety culture and comply with OSHA and project safety requirements.•    Conduct work in a manner that protects the layout crew and adjacent trades.•    Report hazards, near-misses, and incidents immediately. Working Conditions & Physical Requirements•    Field-based work performed outdoors in all weather conditions.•    Frequent walking on uneven terrain, climbing, kneeling, and prolonged standing.•    Must be able to lift and carry up to 50 pounds (instruments, tripods, targets).•    Exposure to dust, diesel exhaust, and construction noise.•    Extended hours and early mornings to support pour-day layout; travel to project sites as required.

Education & Experience: •    2+ years of experience in field engineering, surveying, and layout for a large-scale commercial self-perform GC or concrete contractor.•    Some self-perform concrete experience is preferred.•    Variety of project types preferred, with emphasis on commercial/industrial; projects over $1 million. Technical Knowledge•    Knowledge and skill with Total Station, Robotic Total Station, and/or Theodolite equipment.•    Knowledge of data-surveying software and 3D layout/screed systems.•    Understanding of coordinate geometry, geometric theory, and ASTM E1155 FF/FL measurement.•    Proficiency with Microsoft Word, Excel, and Outlook.

Certifications: (Preferred unless noted)•    OSHA 30 (preferred).•    TWIC Card (or eligibility to obtain)Skills & Attributes•    Exceptional attention to detail, accuracy, and commitment to excellence.•    Strong organizational and communication skills.•    Ability to interface professionally with clients, inspectors, and engineers.•    Self-directed problem solver who owns and acts on quality issues.
