Position Summary

Provide field-level safety surveillance and documentation across civil, electrical, generator, fuel, controls, and telecom work. This role extends the SSHO's reach across multiple work fronts and shifts but does not independently satisfy the SSHO requirement unless the individual is separately accepted as a qualified alternate.

What You Will Do

• Perform work-area observations, document hazards and corrective actions, and verify AHA controls before and during work.
• Support orientations, toolbox talks, permits, hot work, confined-space, excavation, fall-protection, LOTO, and electrical-safety controls.
• Track training, inspections, near misses, incidents, environmental/safety interfaces, and daily report inputs.
• Monitor subcontractors and immediately elevate unsafe conditions to the SSHO and field leadership.
• Support night, weekend, outage, testing, or commissioning shifts as assigned.

Minimum Qualifications

• At least 3 years of construction safety experience in industrial, power, utility, or federal work.
• OSHA 30 Construction and current First Aid/CPR/AED.
• Working knowledge of EM 385-1-1, AHAs, hazard controls, permits, and incident documentation.
• Ability to work full-time in Puerto Rico, wear required PPE, traverse active construction areas, and obtain installation access.

Preferred Qualifications

• CHST, STS-C, ASP, electrical safety/NFPA 70E, competent-person, or Spanish-language safety training credentials.
• Experience supporting multiple shifts or medium-voltage energization and commissioning.

Field, Travel and Employment Conditions

• This is a contingent opportunity dependent on contract award/NTP, project funding, final staffing authorization, Government acceptance when required, and successful installation-access processing.
• When on site, work may involve tropical heat and humidity, rain, uneven terrain, stairs/ladders, construction noise, required PPE, and extended, weekend, outage, emergency, or alternate-shift hours.
• Candidates must be authorized to work in the United States, follow drug-free workplace and conduct requirements, and protect FCI/CUI using only authorized systems and procedures.
• ERP encourages applications from qualified Native American, Puerto Rican, veteran, military-spouse, disabled, and local candidates. ERP provides equal employment opportunity consistent with applicable law.

Application Materials

• Resume showing month/year dates, employer, role, project scope/value, client, and personal responsibilities.
• Copies of required current licenses/certifications with expiration dates.
• Comparable-project list and references where requested, Puerto Rico availability, earliest mobilization date, and requested employment/consulting arrangement.
