【Main Purpose】
The Field Project Engineer is a site-based construction engineer responsible for turning design and engineering requirements into safe, buildable and well-controlled field execution for the Japan project.
The role works daily with the Construction Manager, project engineers, contractors and supervisors to remove constraints, resolve field technical issues, verify progress and quality against the latest drawings, and report the actual status of the works clearly in English.
This is not a desk-only coordination role. The successful candidate must demonstrate recent hands-on construction experience, strong drawing-reading capability, practical judgement at the work face, and a problem-solving mindset.

【Duties & Responsibilities】
This is a site-execution role. The job holder must be visible on site, understand the actual works, verify the field condition against the drawings, and drive issues to closure with practical options.
〇Field engineering and drawing control
- Read, understand and apply IFC drawings, shop drawings, specifications, method statements, ITPs, RFIs and approved revisions before work starts.
- Verify that contractors are working from the latest approved drawings and that field conditions match design intent, dimensions, interfaces and constructability requirements.
- Identify clashes, missing information, access constraints, material gaps and sequencing risks early; propose practical solutions with safety, schedule and cost impact clearly stated.
- Maintain field redlines, as-built inputs, technical query logs and action trackers so that site decisions remain traceable.
〇Daily work-front execution
- Walk active work fronts every day with supervisors and contractors to confirm progress, readiness, manpower, equipment, materials, permits and inspection requirements.
- Coordinate interfaces between civil/building, electrical, mechanical, utilities, process/aquaculture systems and temporary works to prevent rework and delays.
- Support work packaging, short-interval planning and the 2-3 week look-ahead so that upcoming constraints are visible before they affect production.
- Ensure that problems are not simply passed upward: define the issue, root cause, options, recommendation, owner and required decision date.
〇Quality, safety and reporting
- Support inspections, hold points, punch-list closure and NCR resolution by checking the actual works against drawings, specifications and ITP requirements.
- Promote safe construction methods and immediately escalate unsafe conditions, design risks, access issues or quality failures that could stop the works.
- Prepare concise daily construction reports in English covering progress, quantities, photographs, constraints, decisions required, actions and risk to milestones.
- Issue a weekly engineering/work-front summary showing progress against plan, open RFIs, NCRs, punch items, critical constraints and recovery actions.
〇Key Performance Indicators - initial project targets
Targets are to be reviewed after the first 90 days and calibrated to the approved project baseline, contract requirements, and actual site risk profile.
- Daily field report issued on time for >=95% of working days, with factual progress, photographs, constraints and action owners.
- 100% of critical safety, quality or milestone-threatening issues escalated within 2 hours, with proposed corrective options within 24 hours.
- >=90% of RFIs/technical queries answered, routed or formally escalated within the agreed project timeframe.
- >=85% weekly work-plan adherence for committed engineering-supported work fronts, with missed commitments explained and recovery actions assigned.
- >=90% first-pass acceptance at inspections supported by the role; repeated defects are tracked to root cause and prevented.
- >=90% of punch-list, NCR and corrective actions closed by due date.
- Redline/as-built inputs updated within 5 working days of confirmed field change or site instruction.
