From day one, you'll be in the field gaining hands-on experience and building a strong foundation for your career.

Your Day-to-Day:

  • Start with the Basics: Begin with concrete sampling and testing, then expand into soils, asphalt, and masonry as your expertise grows.
  • Earn While You Learn: Receive paid, on-the-job training and support for certifications through ACI and ICC.
  • Outdoor Work Environment: Enjoy working outside year-round in changing conditions, with new sites and crews keeping things fresh.
  • Testing & Documentation: Perform field and lab tests, maintain equipment, and ensure accurate, complete reporting.
  • Inspections & Standards: Conduct inspections per IBC codes, document findings, and manage data using Metafield.

Experience shifting work hours based on project needs and weather conditions, including early mornings, late evenings, weekends, and overtime (paid at time and a half).


What You Bring:

  • A High School diploma/GED
  • The curiosity and willingness to learn; obtaining certifications is part of your growth
  • A strong work ethic and a team mindset
  • Strong attention to detail and effective communication skills in English, including speaking, reading, and writing
  • Basic math skills with an understanding of weight, volume, pressure, and units of measure
  • The understanding of a fluctuating schedule and occasional travel

Working Conditions and Physical Demands:

You are willing and able to perform the physical demands of this position with the use of Company-provided Personal Protective Equipment, such as:

  • Working the majority of the time outdoors in varying weather conditions
  • Walking over rough, uneven terrain and standing for potentially long periods
  • Routinely lifting and carrying 40-50lbs (field/laboratory samples and equipment)
  • Working outside of normal business hours when necessary

We Are S&ME:

At S&ME, we're committed to your growth, professionally and personally. With over 50 years of experience delivering innovative solutions in geotechnical, civil, environmental, and construction materials engineering, we've built a strong foundation for long-term careers. Our team of over 1,000 employee-owners across 10+ states collaborates to create a meaningful impact for our clients and communities. When you join S&ME, you become part of a collaborative, honest, and people-focused culture that invests in your success. We offer exciting project opportunities, ongoing training, and a comprehensive benefits package to support you and your family. This is more than a job; it's a place to grow, thrive, and build a future.
