  • Apply local, state, and federal traffic engineering standards, manuals, and criteria (e.g., MUTCD, AASHTO, state DOT guidelines) to assigned work.
  • Coordinate with multidisciplinary teams (roadway, planning, structures, utilities) to support integrated transportation solutions.
  • Prepare technical memoranda, reports, specifications, and design documentation for traffic engineering projects.
  • Collaborate with project teams in communication with clients, municipalities, and regulatory agencies regarding traffic operations and design elements.
  • Support data collection efforts, including field observations, traffic counts, and site reviews, as needed.
  • May assist with reviewing the work of technicians or junior staff for completeness and conformance with project expectations.
  • Performs other traffic engineering-related duties as assigned.
