Develop, refine, and govern Inspection Test Plans, checklists, inspection workflows, and quality documentation standards across civil, structural, electrical, mechanical, controls, and commissioning-related scopes Ensure critical MEP systems — including electrical distribution, mechanical/cooling systems, controls, and related infrastructure — are installed in accordance with design intent, specifications, submittals, code requirements, and performance expectations Partner closely with Construction, Design, Commissioning, Operations, GCs, subcontractors, OEMs, AHJs, and third-party inspectors to drive consistent quality outcomes Provide senior-level technical review of drawings, specifications, submittals, RFIs, field changes, and construction execution plans from a quality and constructability perspective Lead root cause analysis for recurring defects, non-conformances, rework drivers, and system-level quality failures Establish defect taxonomies, trend reporting, and quality metrics that provide visibility into systemic risk and performance across scopes or projects Drive pre-functional and functional readiness standards in partnership with commissioning teams Provide technical quality sign-off recommendations for systems prior to commissioning, energization, turnover, and operational handoff Review and validate non-conformance reports, corrective action plans, punch lists, inspection results, test reports, as-builts, redlines, O&M manuals, and turnover packages Identify quality risks early and influence corrective action before issues impact schedule, commissioning, cost, or reliability Translate field lessons learned into scalable standards, playbooks, and repeatable quality practices Mentor QC Engineers, QC Managers, construction teams, and trade partners on technical quality standards and inspection discipline Support audit readiness and maintain high-quality documentation and reporting standards across assigned projects or campus scopes

What Success Looks Like

Critical MEP systems are installed correctly and ready for first-pass commissioning success Repeat defects, rework, and preventable quality issues are reduced through stronger standards and early detection Construction, commissioning, and design teams operate from a shared, technically rigorous quality framework Quality metrics and field data are trusted, visible, and used to drive decisions Turnover documentation is complete, accurate, and audit-ready Lessons learned are translated into improved standards across projects, scopes, and trade partners Crusoe’s quality posture improves schedule confidence, system reliability, and long-term operational performance

Additional Expectations

Willingness to be on-site full-time on site. Ability to travel to other Crusoe construction sites as needed Ability to hold contractors and internal stakeholders accountable to quality standards, including escalation when necessary Commitment to maintaining high standards in safety, quality, documentation, and execution excellence
