Location Auburn, WA Security Clearance Required? No Security Clearance Required about security clearance definitions Position Description Develops moderately complex conceptual designs, final designs, cost estimates and provides maintenance support for the civil/structural phases of buildings, equipment installations, utility systems and grounds. Reviews civil/structural designs to assess compliance with customer requirements, building codes and applicable regulations by applying knowledge of construction principles, practices, and materials. Communicates problems and issues to others for resolution. Ensures accuracy of drawing archives/libraries by reviewing contractor redlines. Identifies errors and documents construction changes to comply with regulatory requirements, facility standards, and record retention requirements. Manages or supports construction projects by providing input on vendor selection; reviews contractor proposals; interfaces with government/regulatory agencies; monitors project progress and vendor/consultant performance. Prepares and presents project information to ensure compliance with applicable construction documents and jurisdictional requirements and to meet project objectives. Produces or procures detailed design documents. Uses appropriate resources to produce project drawings (using AutoCAD), specifications, and permit application packages in accordance with project parameters. Coordinates designs. Reviews and approves documents. Translates customer requirements into design options with documents and estimates. Identifies appropriate materials, equipment, and services by applying engineering principles and methodology. With limited supervision, develops and updates design standards and site-specific operating procedures in order to establish common practices. Provides input to strategic, short-term, and long-term infrastructure planning; completes studies; analyzes current conditions and future requirements; recommends capital improvements; gathers and analyzes data; and works with both internal and external customers in order to identify and assess alternatives and impacts. Translates customer requirements into conceptual design by analyzing intended use/occupancy and desired aesthetics, conducting code research, developing preliminary design elements, determining interdisciplinary engineering support requirements, estimating resource costs/requirements, identifying materials, equipment, and services, and developing initial project schedule in order to establish project scope in response to customer requirements. Plans, manages, and executes projects. Leads a team of stakeholders in the acquisition and modification of assets to enable the customer to achieve the defined business objectives in accordance with company and accounting policies. Manages project expenditures within authorized budgets. Creates, maintains, and communicates project management information. Assists in the creation of contract scope. Ensures suppliers comply with all contract obligations. Interprets and analyzes applicable regulations, standards, codes, and ordinances with respect to project requirements.

Competencies General + Collaboration Generally works effectively and cooperatively with work group members, direct supervisor, and occasionally members of others work groups; establishes and maintains good working relationships by helping people feel valued, appreciated, and included in discussions. Places higher priority on team and/or organization goals than on own goals. Normally offers to help work group members, direct supervisor, and occasionally members of others work groups when they need assistance. + Communication Generally clarifies purpose and importance; stresses major points; follows a logical sequence. Usually keeps the audience engaged through use of techniques such as analogies, illustrations, humor, an appealing style, body language, and voice inflection. Frames the message in line with audience experience, background, and expectations; uses terms, examples, and analogies that are meaningful to the audience. Generally seeks input from audience; checks understanding; presents message in different ways to enhance understanding. Uses syntax, pace, volume, diction, and mechanics appropriate to the media being used. Accurately interprets messages from others and responds appropriately. + Managing Work Has a general sense of more critical and less critical activities and tasks; adjusts priorities when appropriate. Generally ensures that required equipment and/or materials are in appropriate locations so that own and others work can be done effectively. Allocates own time to complete work; tries to coordinate own and others schedules to avoid conflicts. Usually takes advantage of available resources (individuals, processes, departments, and tools) to complete work efficiently. Uses time effectively and rarely allows irrelevant issues or distractions from interfering with work completion. Technical + Civil/Structural Engr Analysis Basic - General knowledge of civil/structural engineering theories (e.g., Mohr's Law, virtual work, open trench flow, Bernoulli's Theorem, strength of materials) and methods/formula selection (e.g., seismic analysis, moment distribution, load calculations, statics/dynamics, flow, soils analysis, root cause analysis, indeterminate structural analysis, finite element analysis, hydraulic calculation, asphalt design) for Facilities Plant Civil/Structural Engineering analysis tasks.
