Key Highlights: 1. Engineering practice focused on planning, management, and integration with execution. 2. An environment that values innovation, solution-seeking, and commitment to results. 3. A field-oriented culture, understanding the pace, pressure, and responsibility of construction sites. PHD Engineering is currently experiencing growth and development within construction planning.

Lead strategic analyses of project outcomes, focusing on risks, opportunities, and lessons learned. **Requirements and Qualifications** Bachelor’s degree in Civil, Production, Mechanical Engineering, or related fields. Experience in planning and control of industrial projects, preferably in mining, energy, infrastructure, or oil & gas sectors. Proficiency in MS Project, Excel, and PowerPoint presentations. #### **Hello. We are PHD Engineering.** And before anything else, let’s be clear: we weren’t founded to stay only in the office. We were founded to be **on-site**, understanding the pace, urgency, pressure, deadlines, and responsibility—only those who live in the field truly know them. Here, presence matters. We were born on-site… and that’s where we remain. On complex industrial construction projects—where schedules tighten, pressure mounts, and errors come at high cost—our role is clear: **to bring predictability, organization, and real execution rhythm**. We operate through **planning, management, and integration of engineering with execution**, using methodology, data, and technology. But above all, we rely on **capable, curious, proactive, and results-driven people**. PHD has grown, evolved, reorganized, and continues progressing. Because truly growing companies don’t settle for comfort—they challenge themselves. They make mistakes, adjust, and move forward. And they do so with people courageous enough to take responsibility. But what truly sustains all this is good, curious, committed people—with an owner’s mindset. People who ask questions, propose improvements, and drive change. People who refuse to accept “that’s how it’s always been done” as an answer. If you believe engineering must **engage with reality**, if you enjoy solving real problems, if you prefer “done” over “talked about”, you might belong on our team. #### **Come build with us.**
