We are seeking a highly organized, computer-savvy Senior Project Engineer to manage the planning, scheduling, financial tracking, coordination, and execution of a high volume of fast-moving construction projects.

This is primarily an office-based project management role, with approximately 60–80% of the position focused on scheduling, project software, budgeting, client communication, materials coordination, and preparing crews for upcoming work.

Most projects are short in duration, often averaging only a few days. Because of that, this position requires someone who can think ahead, recognize potential scheduling or logistical issues early, and understand how one delay can impact multiple projects behind it.

The right person is proactive, highly organized, financially aware, comfortable with technology, and able to manage several moving pieces without losing control of the bigger picture.

What You Will Do

Manage multiple active and upcoming construction projects simultaneously.
Build, maintain, and adjust project schedules using construction management software.
Track project budgets, costs, labor, materials, and overall financial performance.
Coordinate crews, subcontractors, warehouse personnel, vendors, materials, and equipment before each project begins.
Ensure materials are ordered, staged, and ready so crews can execute without unnecessary downtime.
Prepare teams for upcoming projects through pre-construction planning, scheduling, documentation, and coordination.
Communicate directly with clients regarding schedules, project status, delays, changes, and expectations.
Identify scheduling conflicts, travel inefficiencies, material issues, and other project risks before they impact execution.
Adjust project sequencing based on jobsite readiness, crew availability, travel time, material delivery, and changing field conditions.
Maintain accurate project information, schedules, financials, and documentation within the project management system.
Work closely with field teams while owning the planning, financial, scheduling, and communication side of each project.

What We Are Looking For

5+ years of experience in construction project engineering, project management, project controls, construction operations, or a similar role.
Experience managing multiple construction projects at different stages simultaneously.
Strong scheduling, planning, logistics, and organizational skills.
Working knowledge of project budgets, job costs, labor, materials, and financial tracking.
Strong computer literacy and confidence working in project management systems throughout the day.
Experience with Projul, Procore, or similar construction project management software strongly preferred.
Strong Excel, email, documentation, and general software skills.
Excellent client communication and professional follow-through.
Strong critical-thinking and problem-solving skills.
Ability to anticipate problems and make adjustments before they impact the overall schedule.
Experience coordinating crews, subcontractors, vendors, materials, and project logistics.
Comfortable working primarily in an office environment while staying closely connected to field operations.

Relevant Experience

Candidates may come from a variety of construction environments, including:

Landscape construction
Site development
Concrete or hardscape construction
Pool or outdoor construction
Specialty contracting
Commercial renovation
Municipal or school construction
High-volume installation contractors
Other construction companies managing numerous short-duration projects
