  • Develop clear, accurate scopes of work and requisitions for engineering, procurement, and construction services.

  • Review vendor and subcontractor bids for technical compliance, completeness, and alignment with project requirements.

  • Help identify, qualify, and onboard new vendors and subcontractors to strengthen our delivery capability.

• Planning, Scheduling & Estimating

  • Coordinate, develop, and review project and proposal schedules in collaboration with engineering, construction, and operations.

  • Support the creation and review of cost estimates, ensuring alignment with scope, risk, and schedule.

  • Work with Business Development and Operations to ensure estimates, schedules, and execution strategies are realistic and competitive.

• Capture & Proposal Support

  • Serve as a key link between Business Development and Operations in Kingsport, helping translate client needs into executable solutions.

  • Contribute to capture planning and win strategies for new task orders and project opportunities at HSAAP.

  • Lead or support the development of technical sections of task order proposals, including execution plans, management approaches, and technical narratives.

  • Participate in internal reviews and approvals, incorporating feedback to strengthen proposal content.

• Excellent written and oral communication skills; able to clearly convey technical and commercial information to diverse stakeholders.

• Thorough knowledge of industry practices, standards, and regulations relevant to engineering and construction projects.

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering or a related technical/business field.

• 10+ years of related work experience in engineering, construction, or industrial projects.

• Broad technical and business background, with experience working across multiple disciplines and project phases.
