Interview prep

Be ready to walk a real site problem: how you closed an RFI, resolved a field clash, or led a crew/engineers under schedule pressure. Expect safety culture, quality hold points, and Bechtel-scale EPC interfaces (owner, vendors, craft). Tie leadership examples to Cheyenne on-site constraints—weather, logistics, remote-from-HQ decision making.

Fit summary

Strong fit if you want hands-on EPC field leadership at a major constructor, not a desk-only design job. Thin public employee-review data in this packet; weigh travel/site life and Wyoming base carefully. Software certs in DATA are optional, not core credentials for this title.

Lead title implies ownership of packages, schedule interfaces, and escalation when site conditions diverge from drawings.

Skills to emphasize

Role-relevant foundations: construction/field engineering judgment, drawings & specs, testing documentation, and people leadership. Provided CERTS are software-oriented (family: Software Developers); use only if you need digital upskilling—costs exact:
