Quality Engineer (Mission Critical- Philadelphia, PA)
Company: Barton Malow Holdings | Location: Philadelphia, PA (On‑site) | Position: Quality Engineer | REQ ID: 12300
About the role
Barton Malow is seeking a Quality Engineer to join our Mission Critical team on a project located near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This is a hands-on, high-impact role for someone who takes genuine pride in getting it right — from the first inspection to final commissioning. You'll be responsible for implementing and maintaining Barton Malow's quality program across self-perform work, subcontractor scopes, and vendor performance. In a mission critical environment, quality isn't a checkbox — it's what keeps systems running when it matters most. If that kind of accountability energizes you, we'd like to talk.
Responsibilities
- Maintain an effective quality control program in alignment with the Barton Malow Quality Manual, applicable codes, drawings, specifications, and contract documents.
- Review and approve subcontractor quality programs, inspection and test procedures, and personnel qualification records.
- Ensure all required testing and inspections are performed on schedule and to standard.
- Establish Witness and Hold points for inspection as appropriate to scope and risk.
- Identify and control nonconformance items — including stop work orders, corrective action planning, and disposition approval and verification.
- Initiate corrective action for deviations in corporate document and process compliance.
- Coordinate qualified testing laboratories and third-party inspection agencies to assure compliance.
- Submit monthly quality reports identifying measurable results and trends.
- Collect, organize, and maintain all project quality documentation, including testing and inspection logs, test reports, receiving inspections, off-site vendor inspections, corrective actions, and key performance indicators.
- Partner with the Project Manager on all quality-related issues and decisions.
- Play an active role — and potentially lead — the commissioning and startup process for equipment and systems.

Required: 2+ years of construction QA/QC inspection experience; solid working knowledge of construction inspection and testing techniques; willingness to travel for extended assignments within the region; strong verbal and written communication skills — you'll be coordinating across trades, subcontractors, vendors, and project leadership; proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite.
