Job description

LA28 does not provide relocation assistance for any positions.
If you are based outside the Los Angeles area, we still welcome your application - we value talent from all geographic backgrounds and want to hear from you if you are able to work on-site in LA.
Role Purpose
As Manager, Civil Engineering, you will establish the civil engineering foundation of LA28's venues, advancing designs from concept through construction so every venue is fit-for-purpose for Games time. Reporting to the Senior Manager, Civil Engineering, you will translate stakeholder requirements into cost-effective, constructable civil solutions across a multi-venue portfolio. In the years leading up to the Games, your engineering judgment shapes infrastructure that does not exist yet into venues ready for the world.
Key Responsibilities
  • Lead the civil aspects of venue design books, advancing designs through increasing levels of detail to meet schedule milestones.
  • Coordinate stakeholder requirements into cost-effective, streamlined engineering solutions that meet fit-for-purpose requirements across all venues.
  • Collaborate with architects and engineering disciplines and oversee external resources to integrate civil engineering into venue infrastructure design.
  • Partner with Accessibility, Energy, Technology, and other functional areas to integrate civil works requirements.
  • Partner with Cost and Procurement to elevate delivery and procurement risks and identify savings opportunities.

Required Competencies
  • 5+ years of experience with civil engineering infrastructure design and construction, plus an accredited Bachelor's degree in civil engineering or related engineering field.
  • Knowledge of relevant industry codes, standards, and practices related to key civil siteworks activities, including site preparation, earthwork, drainage, vehicular circulation, utility connections, and fire and life safety considerations.
  • Experience supporting complex permit applications with various authorities having jurisdictions.
  • Detail-oriented with excellent organizational skills and command of collaboration tools (Office 365, SharePoint, Smartsheet, Autodesk Cloud, etc.).
  • Experience leading diverse teams delivering complex, high-profile infrastructure projects, with demonstrated commitment to co-creation and collaborative decision-making.
  • Knowledge of fundamental project management concepts (e.g., scope, schedule, budget) and strong communication and interpersonal skills.

Valued Experience
  • Professional Engineering (PE) license in California.
  • Project Management and Construction Certifications.
  • Experience in design and construction in the US and California markets, including applying for and obtaining civil works permits.

What We Offer
  • Real ownership of the civil engineering scope behind every LA28 venue.
  • Direct influence over how venues perform for athletes, fans, and broadcast.
  • A collaborative, multi-disciplinary team spanning architecture, accessibility, energy, and technology.
  • The chance to shape infrastructure that doesn't exist yet into venues ready for the Games.

What This Role Means for the Games
Your civil engineering work keeps every venue safe, compliant, and ready to perform when the world arrives for the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Physical Requirements & Working Conditions
  • Available to work onsite in our Downtown Los Angeles-based office, with travel to venue sites and partner offices as needed.
  • The majority of work will be conducted in an office setting, requiring extended periods of time using computers, phones, and other office equipment.
  • The LA28 office is an open floorplan working environment; employees must be able to work efficiently in an open cubicle environment.
  • Hours of work may vary, including evenings, weekends, and holidays, especially during peak event periods.
  • Perform other duties as required; the role will evolve over time and may include operational responsibilities during the Olympic and Paralympic Games.
