Original job description

SENIOR PROJECT ENGINEER – MARINE CONSTRUCTION

BUILD YOUR CAREER WITH ORION

Orion is a leading specialty construction company delivering complex marine, heavy civil, and infrastructure projects throughout the United States and beyond.

Unlike firms that primarily manage subcontractors, Orion self-performs much of its construction work, giving our Project Engineers direct exposure to field operations, project controls, procurement, estimating, scheduling, cost management, and construction execution.

Our teams build and support critical infrastructure including:

Ports, Harbors & Marine Terminals Piers, Wharves, Docks & Bulkheads Bridges & Heavy Civil Infrastructure Marine Foundations & Pile Driving Coastal & Waterfront Infrastructure Industrial & Marine Facilities Dredging, Diving & Marine Operations

At Orion, our guiding beliefs and core values are centered on Safety, Quality, Delivery, and Teamwork, with each built upon the foundation of Integrity.

POSITION SUMMARY

The Senior Project Engineer – Marine Construction provides project engineering and field support for Orion's marine and heavy civil construction projects.

This position works closely with Project Managers, Superintendents, Foremen, Surveyors, field personnel, subcontractors, suppliers, and clients to help ensure projects are executed safely, efficiently, on schedule, and within budget.

Responsibilities include project cost tracking, procurement, subcontractor bid packages, interpreting plans and specifications, scheduling, project documentation, estimating support, coordination of self-perform construction activities, and project closeout.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced construction professional looking to continue developing toward Assistant Project Manager and Project Manager-level responsibility while gaining hands-on experience delivering complex self-perform marine construction projects.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Work closely with the Project Management Team to support the successful execution and completion of marine and heavy civil construction projects.

• Monitor and track project costs including labor, equipment, materials, subcontractors, and services.

• Assist with project forecasting, cost controls, productivity tracking, and overall project financial performance.

• Develop bid packages and scopes of work for subcontractors.

• Solicit, evaluate, and coordinate subcontractor and supplier proposals.

• Procure subcontractors, permanent materials, consumables, equipment, and services required for project execution.

• Interpret construction drawings, plans, specifications, contracts, and technical requirements.

• Coordinate project work activities with Superintendents, Foremen, Surveyors, and field crews.

• Assist with project schedules and short-term construction planning to support project milestones.

• Interface with project personnel, subcontractors, suppliers, customers, engineers, and other project stakeholders.

• Support RFIs, submittals, change documentation, quantity tracking, and other project administration activities.

• Assist with estimating and bid proposals for upcoming marine and heavy civil construction opportunities.

• Support project startup, execution, documentation, and closeout.

• Visit active construction sites and participate directly in field operations and project coordination.

• Promote a safe working environment and ensure project activities comply with Orion safety policies and applicable regulations.

• Participate in Safety and Environmental initiatives supporting compliance with State and Federal regulations.

• Perform additional project engineering and construction management responsibilities as required.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Education & Experience

• Bachelor's Degree in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, or a related discipline and approximately 5+ years of relevant construction experience, or equivalent applicable work experience.

• Experience within marine construction, heavy civil construction, infrastructure, bridges, foundations, ports, waterfront construction, or other self-perform construction environments is strongly preferred.

• Previous marine construction internship or co-op experience is beneficial for candidates earlier in their careers.

Knowledge & Skills

Successful candidates should possess working knowledge of:

• Project Management & Construction Administration

• Self-Perform Construction Operations

• Construction Materials

• Procurement & Subcontractor Management

• Estimating & Bid Preparation

• Construction Scheduling

• Cost Control & Forecasting

• Plans & Specifications

• Engineering & Project Standards

• Safety & Environmental Compliance

Candidates should also demonstrate strong communication, organization, problem-solving, and relationship-building skills with the ability to work effectively with both project management and field construction teams.

FIELD & TRAVEL REQUIREMENTS

This is a field-oriented construction position supporting active marine and heavy civil projects.

Candidates must be willing and able to travel and work out of town for extended periods of time based on project requirements.

The position requires regular interaction with active construction operations and may include working around barges, boats, marine equipment, cranes, pile-driving operations, heavy equipment, and waterfront construction activities.

SAFETY IS EVERYONE'S RESPONSIBILITY

At Orion, safety is fundamental to how we operate.

Every employee is responsible and accountable for their own personal safety and the safety of their coworkers and others on the project.

Employees are authorized and obligated to stop work whenever an unsafe condition or situation is anticipated or observed.

All employees are expected to comply with applicable laws, regulations, Orion policies, procedures, and established safe work practices.

PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS

The Senior Project Engineer must be able to perform the essential functions of the position with or without reasonable workplace accommodation.

The position may require:

• Wearing required PPE including hard hats, safety glasses, steel-toed footwear, hearing protection, respirators, and personal flotation devices.

• Walking and navigating active marine and heavy civil construction sites.

• Boarding and exiting barges, boats, vessels, docks, and other marine facilities.

• Standing, walking, climbing, stooping, kneeling, squatting, and sitting for extended periods.

• Lifting and carrying objects weighing up to approximately 20 pounds.

• Working outdoors and adapting to changing or extreme weather conditions.

• Responding appropriately during emergencies and evacuating work areas when necessary.

WHY ORION?

At Orion, you won't just observe construction from behind a desk.

You'll work alongside experienced construction professionals delivering challenging self-perform marine and heavy civil projects that help build and maintain America's ports, waterways, transportation systems, military facilities, and critical infrastructure.

For Project Engineers looking to build their careers, Orion provides exposure to the full project lifecycle - from estimating and procurement through field execution, cost control, scheduling, project management, and closeout.

Build projects. Build experience. Build your career with Orion.
