Roles and Responsibilities
Engineering Project Scheduling
• Support the development, release, and maintenance of integrated engineering project schedules using Primavera P6 in alignment with defined scope and execution strategy.
• Assist in execution and monitoring of project schedules for assigned Gas Power Business scopes (GT/GEN/ST/HRSG and BoP engineering).
• Support conversion of proposal/tender schedules into integrated contract schedules under supervision.
• Assist in preparation and maintenance of Tender Time Schedules (TTS), Overall Time Schedules (OTS), Master Time Schedules (MTS), System Time Schedules (STS), and portfolio-level schedules as required.
• Support baseline schedule preparation, revisions (Rebaseline), and documentation of schedule changes through formal logs.
Proposal & Contract Support
• Support ITO and Proposal teams in developing schedule assumptions, scope matrices, and engineering delivery sequences.
• Assist in preparation of schedule inputs for deviation and clarification meetings.
• Provide data support for contract documentation and schedule-related inputs.
Schedule Control & Performance Monitoring
• Support regular schedule updates based on engineering progress inputs and PLM interfaces.
• Assist in critical path identification, float tracking, and schedule performance analysis.
• Support evaluation of schedule impacts due to scope changes and assist in preparation of impact analysis (EOT and as-impacted schedules) under guidance of Lead Planner.
• Participate in micro-planning exercises for critical or delayed work packages and support development of recovery scenarios.
Reporting, Analytics & Communication
• Assist in preparation of dashboards, KPIs, progress reports, and management summaries.
• Support development of S-Curves, progress measurement tracking (Earned Value concepts), and forecast completion analysis.
• Prepare weekly look-ahead schedules and support monthly reporting cycles.
• Track engineering and customer deliverable milestones (LD) and support reporting.
• Communicate schedule updates and risks to project stakeholders under direction of Lead Planner.
Collaboration & Continuous Improvement
• Work closely with the Lead Engineering Planner to follow established planning standards, templates, and best practices.
• Collaborate with Engineering, Quality, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Finance, and external vendors to collect progress inputs and ensure schedule alignment.
• Support documentation of lessons learned and planning improvements during project execution and close-out.
Required Qualifications
• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Civil Engineering.
• Experience in Engineering Planning, Project Planning, or Project Controls within industrial, EPC, or manufacturing environments.
• Working knowledge of Primavera P6 or similar scheduling tools.
Desired Characteristics
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Basic understanding of critical path method (CPM), float analysis, and schedule logic development.
• Good communication skills with ability to work in cross-functional teams.
• Structured, detail-oriented, and data-driven approach.
• Eagerness to learn engineering planning processes across proposal and execution phases.
• Ability to work under guidance while progressively taking ownership of planning deliverables.
