• Work under the supervision of licensed surveyors to complete diverse surveying projects
• Collaborate with engineers, planners, and clients to deliver high-accuracy results
• Ensure field safety, equipment care, and data integrity in every environment

• Strong attention to detail and commitment to accuracy
• Willingness to work in the field (sometimes in remote or rugged terrain)
• A positive attitude, eagerness to learn, and the ability to take feedback like a champ
• Bonus if you've done an internship or co-op-real-world experience always helps!
• Valid driver's license and ability to travel to client sites as needed.
