· Coordinate with mechanical, civil, and electrical staff to develop efficient designs and identify and mitigate interferences between disciplines.

· Coordinate with clients and contractors.

· Travel will comprise approximately 10% of your time for site investigations, design reviews and construction inspection and coordination.
