  • Provide mentorship and technical guidance to less-experienced engineers when appropriate.

Required Qualifications

  • Active Professional Engineer (PE) license.
  • Extensive experience in highway bridge engineering and transportation infrastructure.
  • Strong understanding of bridge design principles, including superstructure and substructure design.
  • Experience reviewing engineering plans, calculations, specifications, and technical reports.
  • Strong understanding of quality control and quality assurance practices.
  • Ability to work independently and provide sound technical judgment.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively with multidisciplinary project teams.

Preferred Qualifications
  • 15+ years of bridge engineering experience.
  • Experience with state Department of Transportation projects and procedures.
  • Experience with both traditional design-bid-build and alternative project delivery methods, including design-build and CMGC.
  • Experience serving as a bridge design lead, technical lead, project manager, or quality control reviewer.
  • Experience mentoring engineers and supporting technical staff development.
  • Experience contributing to proposals, statements of qualifications, and business development efforts.
  • Familiarity with applicable AASHTO standards and state DOT bridge design standards and procedures.
