Job description

About PSI

PSI is a fast-growing transportation engineering firm with 30+ years delivering award-winning infrastructure work across the DC region and beyond. We've grown from a boutique traffic engineering shop to a 50+ person firm spanning roadway design, transportation planning, software engineering, and construction management — and we're not done. Our team combines cutting-edge technology with a deep commitment to safety and innovation to solve the real operational and design challenges facing our communities' transportation systems.

Position Overview

We're looking for a Senior Project Manager to lead complex, multi-state roadway and transportation projects from kickoff through construction. You'll manage high-impact pursuits with DDOT, VDOT, MDOT, and local municipalities, and you'll play a direct role in shaping how PSI grows its project portfolio.

You'll be client-facing, technically engaged, and mentoring the next generation of engineers on our team. If you want ownership over your work and a clear path toward executive leadership, this is it.

Responsibilities

  • Lead roadway design projects end-to-end — scope, budget, schedule, quality, and client satisfaction
  • Serve as the primary client contact for your projects; build and maintain strong agency relationships
  • Direct and mentor multidisciplinary project teams including engineers, designers, surveyors, traffic, and environmental specialists
  • Oversee technical work including geometric design, drainage, erosion and sediment control, pavement marking/signing, and construction staging
  • Review and provide QC guidance on deliverables from junior engineers and external consultants
  • Support business development through client relationship management and proposal contributions
  • Stay current on industry trends, agency standards, and emerging technologies in roadway design

Required Qualifications:

  • 10+ years of roadway design and project management experience
  • PE licensure in DC, MD, or VA (reciprocal licensure in remaining jurisdictions expected)
  • Proven track record delivering transportation projects on time and on budget for public-sector clients
  • Hands-on experience with state DOT's including DDOT, VDOT, MDOT, and/or local municipality projects
  • Strong communicator — equally comfortable in a client meeting and a design review
  • Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience with OpenRoads, MicroStation, AutoCAD, and/or Synchro
  • Advanced degree or additional certifications in Civil Engineering or related field

Benefits:

  • Competitive salary commensurate with experience
  • Discretionary annual merit bonus and annual raise
  • Up to 4% 401(k) match
  • Comprehensive benefits package — PSI covers 70% of medical premiums, plus dental, vision, and company-paid life insurance
  • Hybrid work flexibility (2 days a week)
  • Commuter Benefits
