Job Overview
Dual Fuel is a licensed Master Plumber, Oil Burner Installer, General Contractor, and ConEd Multifamily Partner delivering mechanical, plumbing, and energy services across New York City. We are hiring an MEP Site Superintendent to own the field on our active installation projects across the NYC metro area, including NYCHA and affordable housing portfolios.
This is a field leadership role. You are accountable for the quality, safety, compliance, daily documentation, and on-time completion of MEP projects from mobilization through close-out. You need deep hands-on knowledge of commercial boilers, heating systems, and MEP trades — and the discipline to maintain rigorous daily reporting, direct crews, manage subcontractors, and run a job site independently while keeping your project management team fully informed.
Responsibilities
Daily Reporting & Documentation (Non-Negotiable)
· Submit a Construction Daily Report via the company’s project management system every day crews are on site (typically 3–4 PM), documenting work performed, crew counts, subcontractor activity, equipment status, and site photos.
· Submit a Safety Report (Daily / Incident) via the company’s project management system every day during construction (typically 10 AM–2 PM), identifying at least one near-miss or hazardous condition, documenting mitigation actions, and confirming a safety discussion was held with the crew.
· Supervise the foreman’s Daily Pre-Shift Meeting form submission for accuracy, completeness, and quality. Ensure all crew members understand the day’s goals, assigned tasks, and associated safety risks.
· Maintain and update construction tasks in the project management system daily: update man-days used, confirm crew photo uploads, close completed tasks same-day, and flag schedule deviations to the PM immediately.
Site Leadership & Execution
· Serve as the primary on-site authority — present whenever work is underway, responsible for all field activity.
· Direct in-house foremen and crews to execute MEP installations per construction documents, drawings, and specifications.
· Oversee subcontractor performance and scope compliance; identify and correct deficiencies promptly. Track sub progress, photos, and notes in corresponding construction tasks within the project management system.
· Manage multiple active job sites simultaneously as required.
· Be available when your job site needs you — if a problem or issue arises on a weeknight or weekend, you are expected to be reachable and responsive. This role carries accountability beyond standard business hours.
Schedule Tracking & Coordination
· Own and maintain the project schedule: prepare construction tasks with complete scope descriptions, materials lists, drawings, site access info, and crew assignments per company workflow standards.
· Verify material lists with the foreman. Ensure that no construction task is scheduled without a confirmed material list.
· Coordinate labor, materials, subcontractors, deliveries, and vendors in critical path with the PM team.
· Coordinate on-site sequencing with internal Dual Fuel trades (controls/Axxon, electrical, service) alongside subcontractors and vendors.
· Prepare and submit 2-week construction look-aheads weekly in coordination with the PM.
· Track man-days burned versus budget, project the next two weeks’ burn, and flag labor overruns to the PM with root cause.
· Attend the weekly Site Super / PM meeting prepared to review the 2-week look-ahead, task status, manpower plans, field issues, cost tracking, and safety.
· Consult with design engineers and subcontractors to plan and sequence work ahead of mobilization.
· Assist in purchasing and procurement in coordination with the PM team.
Quality Control & Safety
· Establish and enforce site quality control standards; perform ongoing inspections through close-out and punch list completion.
· Train building operators and customers on new equipment upon project completion.
· Enforce all safety programs, PPE compliance, hazard analyses, hot works permits, and GC requirements.
· Manage OSHA logs, incident reporting, and all required safety and compliance documentation on site. Coordinate all info with Director of HR and General Foreman.
· Collect and enforce daily prevailing-wage sign-in sheets on site and submit same-day.
· Complete Job Hazard Analyses (JHAs) in advance of high-risk or atypical work sequences and review with crews on the first day of work.
Project Management Support
· Attend site meetings with architects, customers, engineers, and city agencies as required.
· Communicate RFIs, submittals, and drawing conflicts to the PM team promptly via the company’s communication and project management tools.
· Identify and document change-order triggers and field conditions for the PM to price and process; support walkthroughs for new-scope evaluations.
· Proactively flag risks, schedule slips, access issues, and coordination conflicts upstream to the PM — do not wait to be asked.
Required Qualifications
· Valid Driver’s License — required. Daily travel between job sites.
· OSHA 30 Certification — required.
· NYC SST Card (40-Hour total with OSHA) — required.
· Minimum 5 years of commercial MEP construction experience with deep knowledge of commercial boilers and heating systems.
· In-depth knowledge of steam heating, hydronic heating and cooling, pumps, fuel oil systems, and applicable codes.
· Proficiency reading and interpreting construction documents, drawings, RFIs, and submittals.
· Strong written and verbal communication; ability to interface with crews, subcontractors, engineers, and clients.
· Demonstrated discipline with daily reporting and documentation — you will be expected to submit construction and safety reports every single day without exception.
· Proficiency with project management and team communication software. Willingness to adopt new tools quickly.
Preferred Qualifications
· Experience with cogeneration (CHP) systems, chillers, or general HVAC.
· Knowledge of NYC mechanical and plumbing codes.
· Prior experience on prevailing wage and NYCHA compliance projects.
· Experience with field service management software (e.g., BuildOps, ServiceTitan, or similar).
· Prior experience managing construction schedules in project management platforms (e.g., Procore, Asana, MS Project, or similar).
What Success Looks Like in This Role
· 100% daily reporting compliance — a Construction Daily Report and a Safety Report submitted every day crews are on site, on time, with complete information and photos.
· Construction tasks updated same-day, field production tracked on shops and schematics, labor budgets tracked, completed tasks closed on time with proper documentation, schedule deviations flagged immediately.
· 2-week look-ahead submitted weekly.
· Proactive upstream communication — the PM hears about problems from you first, not from the client or GC.
· Sign-in sheets, JHAs, and compliance documentation submitted on time, every time.
