As a Setting Out Engineer at Tantek 4D, you will be responsible for setting out and surveying construction works on-site to ensure accuracy and compliance with project designs and specifications. You will interpret drawings and models, verify site levels and dimensions, and provide precise data to support construction teams and project managers. Day-to-day tasks include coordinating with site management and subcontractors, maintaining accurate records of set-out points, conducting quality checks, and assisting with as-built surveys and reports. You will use modern surveying instruments and digital tools, support the implementation of BIM and geospatial workflows, and help ensure that health and safety standards are followed on site. This is a full-time, on-site role based in Sligo.
