Job description

At Findorff, we bring expertise and value in construction that extends far beyond building. Since 1890, we've grown from humble beginnings into one of Wisconsin's most trusted construction firms – driven by strong relationships, high-quality work, and a commitment to the communities we serve.

Come join Findorff as a Project Engineer Co-op this Spring/Summer (January 2027 - August 2027) or Summer/Fall (May/June 2027 - December 2027).

What You'll Do

The Project Engineer Co-op is located in Madison, WI and works alongside project teams on active construction projects. As a Project Engineer Co-op at Findorff, you'll gain hands-on experience across all phases of construction, from preconstruction through project closeout. This entry-level role is designed for students interested in the construction industry and offers exposure to Project Management, Field Operations, Preconstruction, and MEP teams. You'll work alongside experienced professionals while building foundational technical, administrative, and leadership skills.

  • Support Project Teams: Assist with RFIs, submittals, document control, and project communication to help keep projects organized and moving forward.
  • Contribute to Project Coordination: Participate in team meetings, take meeting minutes, assist with short-term planning, and help coordinate with field staff, subcontractors, and suppliers.
  • Assist in Preconstruction & Estimating: Gain exposure to quantity takeoffs, bid package preparation, subcontractor outreach, and basic estimating activities.
  • Support Field Operations: Work with Superintendents to assist with material coordination, progress photos, safety walks, quality assurance, and punch list activities.
  • Learn Project Systems & Tools: Utilize tools such as Bluebeam and Procore while supporting document updates, tracking submittals, and compiling project information.
  • Build Professional Skills: Develop communication, organization, and problem-solving abilities while collaborating with project teams, clients, architects, and trade partners.

Why Findorff

  • Gain hands-on experience from day one by contributing to real projects, not just job shadowing.
  • Work alongside experienced mentors invested in your learning and development.
  • Job Site Visits across sectors like Education, Science & Technology, Multi-family, Corporate, and Healthcare to broaden your experience.
  • Offsite events to connect with fellow students across projects through organized networking and social events.
  • Collaborative, people-first culture where your contributions are valued.

Plus: competitive hourly pay, housing stipend, holiday pay, structured co-op program, special events, and access to our onsite fitness center.

What We Are Looking For

  • Pursuing a bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, Architecture, or a related field, or relevant experience.
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively.
  • Comfortable using technology with strong computer skills.
  • Strong communication and problem-solving skills.
  • Interest in building a career in the construction industry.
