Senior Bridge Project Manager / Transportation Practice Builder
Jacobs
Build iconic infrastructure. Lead with purpose. Shape the future of mobility.
At Jacobs, we’re not just designing bridges and we’re connecting communities, advancing innovation, and building what’s next. As a key leader in our Southwest Bridge Team, you’ll drive transformative transportation projects across Nevada, the Southwest, and beyond. From high-speed rail to alternative delivery megaprojects, your impact will be felt locally and nationally.
Why This Role Stands Out
This isn’t just another project management job. It’s a chance to:
* Lead high-profile projects like Brightline West High Speed Rail and Project Neon
* Shape the future of bridge engineering through mentorship, innovation, and strategic growth
* Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams in a culture that values creativity and camaraderie
* Enjoy flexibility through our hybrid work model and modified full-time options
Grow your career while contributing to national engineering organizations and thought leadership
What You’ll Do
As a Senior Bridge Project Manager / Transportation Practice Builder, you’ll:
* Oversee multidisciplinary teams and manage complex bridge design projects
* Lead all phases of bridge design—preliminary through final bid packages
* Provide engineering services during construction, including observation and reporting
* Develop Design-Build proposals and lead task orders under on-call contracts
* Deliver innovative solutions tailored to client, site, and project constraints
* Perform quality reviews and provide technical guidance to junior engineers
* Coordinate with PMs, Design Leads, and Senior Engineers to meet project milestones
* Pursue new business opportunities and strengthen client relationships across the region
We understand that life evolves. That’s why we offer flexible schedules—including modified full-time options (21+ hours/week)—to support your personal and professional goals. Our hybrid model encourages in-office collaboration 2-3 days per week to foster mentorship, creativity, and connection.
