- Manage external design and engineering resources, including A&E personnel, design builder teams, specialty consultants, and contract workforce supporting the development of required engineering and design deliverables.
- Review design packages for completeness, constructability, coordination, technical accuracy, and alignment with project scope, client standards, construction sequencing, and operational needs.
- Facilitate design reviews, interdisciplinary coordination meetings, constructability reviews, value engineering discussions, and issue resolution sessions with stakeholders and external design partners.
- Effectively interact with client engineering organizations to influence design standards, construction specifications, and operations requirements that enable construction teams to meet program success metrics.
- Perform conceptual engineering analysis for multiple scenarios, including high level schedule and budget development, to help customers and stakeholders make critical business decisions based on time, cost, and technical constraints.
- Support coordination between base build, tenant improvement, tool install, facilities, and manufacturing support scopes where applicable.
- Develop and implement effective safety by design practices across all aspects of the client's business and project execution model.
Requirements
- Proven track record managing engineering and design for large, complex technical facilities and equipment installation construction projects in high tech industries, preferably semiconductor.
- Direct experience supporting large semiconductor fab, cleanroom, advanced manufacturing, or owner operated high tech manufacturing environments is strongly preferred.
- Experience working directly with A&E firms, design builders, EPCM partners, engineering consultants, construction managers, and trade contractors.
- Strong technical expertise in engineering with the ability to provide strategic and tactical direction to large engineering and design teams, including direct, matrixed, and external partner resources.
- Ability to manage design scope across multiple disciplines, including architectural, CSA, MEP, process utilities, cleanroom systems, and facility infrastructure.
- Ability to effectively communic
