This role allows you to apply your inspection expertise in structural and mechanical systems while contributing to quality assurance, issue resolution, and project documentation. Whether you're ensuring SWPPP compliance or flagging nonconformance issues, your keen eye and judgment safeguard both the public and the project's success. In this role, your contributions will not only drive construction excellence-they will make a tangible, lasting impact on public infrastructure across Arizona.

• Ensure adherence to applicable industry standards, safety regulations, and SWPPP requirements.
• Conduct fieldwork while following all applicable safety procedures.
• Support implementation of construction changes and schedule modifications as directed.
• Stay informed of current construction practices, standards, technologies, and regulatory requirements.

• Construction Management degree or equivalent experience; non-degreed applicants with strong inspection credentials are encouraged to apply.
• 3-10 years of construction inspection experience, preferably in civil infrastructure or water/wastewater-related projects.
• Demonstrated experience inspecting structural and mechanical systems; electrical systems experience is a plus.
• Review contractor quality control testing and special inspections; experienced candidates may assist with coordinating or approving these in collaboration with the PM or RE.
• Strong working knowledge of construction methods, specifications, drawings, safety standards, and SWPPP practices.
• Certifications such as ACI Concrete Field Testing Technician - Grade I, ICC Special Inspector (e.g., Reinforced Concrete, Structural Steel), SWPPP/QSP, or OSHA 10-Hour are preferred; candidates without them are still encouraged to apply.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook); familiarity with Bluebeam and construction management tools is preferred.
• Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a team environment.
• Excellent communication and time management skills.
• Valid driver's license and ability to travel to multiple project sites across Arizona.
