Process and compile survey data to produce comparison reports, sketches, and other project-related documentation.
Interpret data for various construction-related analyses, including pre-pour, topographic, volume, shim, plumbness, deviation, and as-built reports.
Collaborate with the Quality Control team to meet reporting requirements and ensure project compliance.
Maintain organized drawing and survey logs for accurate record-keeping.
Provide support to field surveying and drone surveying initiatives as needed.
Communicate effectively with project teams and stakeholders, ensuring alignment on project goals and deliverables.
Manage multiple tasks with strong attention to detail and prioritize effectively to meet deadlines.
