Role Overview

The Senior Construction & Commissioning Quality Control Engineer provides advanced technical support and field leadership for quality assurance and quality control activities across Simple Cycle, Combined Cycle Gas Turbine, and Combined Heat and Power projects. Reporting to the Manager of Construction & Commissioning Quality Control, this senior individual contributor verifies that construction, installation, inspection, preservation, turnover, and commissioning-readiness activities comply with Mitsubishi Power requirements, applicable codes and standards, customer commitments, and project procedures. The role independently identifies quality risks, resolves complex non-conformances, leads investigations, coaches field personnel, and converts lessons learned into practical improvements that prevent recurrence across projects.

Key Responsibilities

• Plan and perform quality surveillance, site walkdowns, and focused audits of construction and commissioning work to verify compliance with drawings, specifications, procedures, Inspection and Test Plans, and approved acceptance criteria.
• Review inspection records, checklists, sign-off packages, material traceability records, weld documentation, non-destructive examination results, preservation records, and system turnover documentation for technical accuracy and completeness.
• Provide senior-level quality oversight for equipment receipt, handling, storage and preservation, lifting and rigging, fabrication, assembly, flange management, cleanliness controls, alignment, and installation activities.
• Identify conditions that could affect safety, equipment reliability, schedule, commissioning readiness, or contractual compliance; document findings clearly and communicate required actions promptly.
• Support constructability and readiness reviews to ensure inspection points, quality controls, hold points, and documentation expectations are incorporated into site execution plans.
• Lead technical evaluation and disposition of construction and commissioning non-conformances, quality escapes, and field deviations in coordination with responsible engineering functions.
• Facilitate Root Cause Analysis for significant or repeat quality events using objective evidence and appropriate problem-solving methods.
• Develop, coordinate, and verify corrective and preventive actions, ensuring actions address underlying causes and are effectively implemented at the affected site and across the project fleet when applicable.
• Maintain traceability among identified conditions, technical dispositions, repairs or rework, inspection results, closure evidence, and lessons learned.
• Escalate unresolved or high-risk quality conditions through the appropriate Quality, Engineering, site, and Project Management channels.
• Develop and improve standardized quality-control procedures, inspection guidance, checklists, Inspection and Test Plan content, and acceptance criteria for construction and commissioning activities.
• Analyze quality escapes, Non-Conformance Reports, rework, supplier issues, and field observations to identify recurring failure modes and emerging risks.
• Convert field experience and Root Cause Analysis outcomes into practical improvements to drawings, specifications, erection procedures, commissioning guidance, training, and work processes.
• Support implementation of digital quality tools, databases, dashboards, and reporting methods that improve visibility, traceability, and timely decision-making.
• Contribute technical content to lessons learned, quality alerts, field advisories, and best-practice communications.
• Serve as a senior quality liaison among site construction and commissioning teams, Engineering, Product Line Management, Supplier Quality, Supply Chain, Project Management, customers, and EPC contractors.
• Provide timely technical recommendations that balance safety, quality, equipment reliability, schedule, cost, and contractual risk.
• Support quality-focused readiness reviews for major milestones, including equipment delivery, system turnover, First Fire, reliability testing, and Commercial Operation Date.
• Assist site teams during customer, corporate, and regulatory audits by organizing objective evidence, responding to technical questions, and coordinating closure of findings.
• Provide onsite coaching and technical guidance to site personnel, Technical Field Advisors, supervisors, inspectors, and contractors on quality requirements and expected field practices.
• Apply applicable federal, state, and local requirements and relevant industry codes and standards, including ASME, NEC, API, AWS, NERC, project specifications, and internal standards, as appropriate to the assigned work scope.
• Adhere to Environmental, Health, and Safety requirements and immediately report unsafe conditions or activities through established channels.
• Prepare concise technical reports, audit findings, Non-Conformance Report documentation, Root Cause Analysis summaries, quality alerts, and leadership-ready updates supported by objective evidence.
• Maintain and report quality performance information, including open findings, Non-Conformance Report status, corrective-action aging, repeat issues, rework, supplier concerns, and turnover readiness.
• Protect the integrity of quality records and ensure decisions, approvals, and closures are documented in the applicable system of record.
• Support multiple projects and priorities concurrently, including urgent site issues and short-notice travel when business needs require.
• Mentor less-experienced engineers and field quality personnel by sharing effective inspection practices, technical judgment, and structured problem-solving methods.
• Promote a collaborative, accountable, and prevention-focused quality culture across internal teams and external partners.
• Communicate respectfully and effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders, including customers and senior leadership.
• Perform other duties consistent with the scope and level of the position.
