Overview

Field Engineer Technologist 3 (All Shifts) – Los Alamos National Laboratory

Join to apply for the Field Engineer Technologist 3 (All Shifts) role at Los Alamos National Laboratory.

The Plutonium Infrastructure Engineering Division develops, maintains, and applies a diverse set of engineering capabilities to provide innovative engineering solutions in support of the Laboratory's Plutonium Facility. This position supports the Field Engineering Group, which is responsible for implementing the Conduct of Engineering (COE) program on Division projects. Program elements include processes, standards, training, and qualifications applicable throughout the life cycle of a facility to effectively manage risks and satisfy customer requirements in a safe, secure, cost effective, and environmentally responsible manner.

The Field Engineer is responsible for ensuring that the technical aspects of construction and maintenance projects are executed in full conformance with the Approved Project Documents by monitoring facility maintenance and construction activities. This is accomplished by providing input during scoping, design, execution, and project closeout to ensure baseline documents are accurate, design documents are adhered to, and as-built configurations are verified.

Field Engineers expedite project execution by identifying issues, coordinating technical solutions, and providing timely guidance to the constructor through approved procedures.
