• Coordinate tactical handoffs between facility infrastructure teams and tool-specific installation crews to maintain steady progress.
• Monitor and report daily on schedule milestones, manpower levels, and material installation rates for assigned toolsets.
• Review contractor-submitted Requests for Information (RFIs) and Field Change Orders (FCOs), validating field conditions before escalating for approval.
• Walk the field daily to enforce strict construction safety standards, zero-tolerance high-pressure/chemical safety rules, and cleanroom protocol compliance.

Core Job Functions

• Oversee the physical installation and routing of Ultra-Pure Water (UPW), chemical delivery, industrial wastewater, and bulk/specialty gas lines from local valve boxes directly to the tool chassis.
• Supervise the layout, connection, and testing of general, acid, ammonia, and solvent exhaust lines from the tool to the main sub-fab collection headers.
• Utilize 3D models in the field to resolve routing conflicts between complex piping runs, exhaust ducts, and neighboring electrical or structural systems.
• Direct and document critical field quality checks, including helium leak testing, analytical gas testing, hydrostatic pressure testing, and visual high-purity weld inspections.
• Coordinate the lockout/tagout (LOTO), line flushing, and initial chemical/gas introduction sequences for individual tools, ensuring all lines are safe to activate.
