We believe in building more than infrastructure—we build solutions that make communities stronger, safer, and more sustainable. From resilient energy systems to safer roads and bridges, our work is rooted in the idea that engineering should improve lives while respecting the environment. Every project is an opportunity to innovate, collaborate, and leave behind something better than what we found.

10+ years of progressive bridge or structural engineering experience.

Expert knowledge of engineering principles, industry codes, and construction practices.

Strong leadership and team management skills with the ability to inspire and mentor.

Excellent communication skills—capable of engaging with technical teams, stakeholders, and clients alike.

Experience with project budgeting and a strong grasp of business practices related to engineering.

Active participation in professional engineering organizations a plus.

Comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, vision, paid time off, holidays, life insurance, and disability coverage.

Opportunities for career growth and involvement in groundbreaking infrastructure projects.

Culture & Values

We are driven by the belief that engineering is about people—the communities we serve, the teams we support, and the future we help shape. We value diversity, inclusion, and collaboration, creating an environment where every voice is heard and every idea has the potential to change the way we design and build.

Join us in finding better ways to build bridges—both literally and figuratively.
