  • Manage project budgets, schedules, scope, and resource allocation.
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for clients and foster long-term relationships.
  • Mentor and develop junior engineers, designers, and technical staff.
  • Ensure compliance with FAA Advisory Circulars, state aviation standards, and company quality requirements.
  • Support construction administration activities, including submittal reviews, design clarifications, and field coordination.

What You Need To Succeed:

  • Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering or related engineering discipline.
  • 5+ years of aviation engineering experience.
  • Experience managing airport design projects and coordinating multidisciplinary teams.
  • Working knowledge of airport planning, airside and landside design, drainage, grading, pavement design, and utility coordination.
  • Experience utilizing or overseeing design development in AutoCAD Civil 3D.
  • Strong project management, client management, and communication skills.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage multiple projects and priorities simultaneously.
Compensation:
The approximate compensation range for this position is $90,000 - $150,000 per year. This compensation range is a good faith estimate for the position at the time of posting. Actual compensation is dependent upon factors such as education, qualifications, experience, skillset, and physical work location.

Why Choose Us:

  • Medical, dental, vision insurance
  • 401k Retirement Plan
