Project Engineer CSA

About the role

As Project Engineer (CSA) at PPE, you are the technical owner of all civil, structural, and architectural works on your project site. You supervise subcontractors, manage drawings and RFIs, enforce quality through the ITP and NCR process, and ensure the work on the ground is always aligned with what the drawings and specifications require.

📍 Important: This is a project-based role. Candidates must be willing to relocate to project sites across Malaysia based on operational and project requirements.

Key responsibilities

• Be on site during all active CSA construction hours — supervise workmanship, work sequence, and compliance with approved drawings and method statements
• Check that subcontractors and workers understand their scope, quality requirements, and tolerances before each activity begins
• Walk the site daily to identify deviations, buildability issues, and safety concerns before they cause rework or delays
• Issue written work instructions to subcontractors before each new activity, specifying scope, sequence, method, quality requirements, and safety controls
• Maintain and distribute the latest IFC drawing revisions to all site teams and subcontractors; remove superseded drawings from the work front
• Raise RFIs for unclear, incomplete, or conflicting drawing information and track them to closure with the HQ engineering team or consultant
• Mark up as-built changes progressively throughout construction and compile the complete as-built drawing set before project handover
• Prepare and submit material approval submittals to the consultant or client for all CSA materials; track approval status until sign-off is received
• Plan and conduct site inspections in accordance with the Inspection and Test Plan (ITP) for each CSA activity; record results on the prescribed forms
• Record actual CSA progress daily by activity and location; prepare the weekly progress update for the Project Manager and Scheduler
