- Perform final QA verification and sign-off on mechanical and piping installations only after the trade contractor's QC process is complete and documented.
- Audit trade contractor weld logs, testing records, and quality documentation for accuracy, completeness, and full traceability.
- Witness flange bolt torquing and verify correct gasket materials, bolt grades, lubricants, and torque values against engineering specifications.
- Witness and verify contractor hydrostatic, pneumatic or sensitive leak tests to grant final system acceptance.
- Conduct on-site QA inspections of structural steel pedestals to verify dimensions, squareness/plumbness, weld quality, and coating compliance prior to delivery.
- Perform Special Inspections for tool installations, including the verification of post-installed concrete anchors, adhesive anchors, and seismic restraint brackets.
- Perform final walkdowns on tool exhaust ductwork systems to verify structural integrity, alignment, and proper support.
- Review and validate spark-testing logs and torque logs specifically for Perfluoro polymer-Coated Stainless Steel (PSP) exhaust ductwork to ensure coating continuity and joint integrity.
- Issue and track Owner-level Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs) for any discovered trade deficiencies, and verify the effectiveness of subsequent corrective actions.
- Demonstrated ability to compile comprehensive, audit-ready Quality Turn-Over Packages with zero data gaps prior to turn on of utilities.
- Any other duties or responsibilities that may be assigned to you in your role.
