The Opportunity

We're looking for an entry-level highway engineer to join our team. This position will have the ability to work a hybrid schedule of in-office and remote. You'll help develop roadway plans from early concepts through final design. That includes horizontal and vertical alignments, typical sections, cross sections, quantities and cost estimates. You'll learn our design software and DOT standards through real project work, with mentorship from engineers who started where you are. As you grow, you'll take on more design responsibility and see how your work is built through site visits and project coordination.
What We're Looking For
  • A bachelor's degree in civil engineering, or one expected by Spring 2027, from an ABET-accredited program
  • Interest in transportation and roadway design. Coursework or internship experience is a plus.
  • Exposure to CAD or design software. MicroStation or Civil 3D is a plus, but we'll teach you what you need.
  • Attention to detail and a willingness to ask questions and learn
  • Clear written and verbal communication, and the ability to work well on a team
  • EIT certification, or plans to take the FE exam
If you want to grow your career on projects that shape the region, we'd love to hear from you.
