Interconnection Project Manager Epc Jobs in Oregon

About IFG

IFG delivers integrated engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) solutions for complex industrial and advanced manufacturing projects. Our in‑house teams partner closely with clients to navigate technical complexity, manage risk, and deliver safe, constructible, and cost‑effective facilities.

Position Summary

The Engineering Project Manager (EPM) is accountable for the engineering scope, technical integrity, and engineering execution of assigned EPC projects. The EPM serves as IFG’s technical representative to clients, vendors, and subcontractors and is responsible for ensuring engineering deliverables are safe, compliant, constructible, and aligned with project cost and schedule objectives.

The EPM does not own the overall project contract, commercial terms, or total project budget.
