Weston & Sampson Engineers Inc

Job Description

Job Description

Weston & Sampson is seeking a Senior Traffic Engineer to lead transformative transportation projects that enhance safety, mobility, and quality of life across communities in the Southeast. This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of how people move—through innovative design, data-driven solutions, and strategic planning.

 

What you’ll do:

  • Lead and manage traffic engineering projects, including traffic operations studies, signal design, and corridor analysis.
  • Perform and oversee traffic modeling and simulation using tools such as Synchro, HCS, and VISSIM.
  • Develop detailed plans for traffic signals, signing and pavement markings, and traffic control in compliance with state and local standards.
  • Conduct safety assessments, intersection improvement studies, and access management evaluations to enhance roadway performance.
  • Coordinate effectively with clients, DOTs, municipalities, MPOs, and subconsultants to ensure timely and successful project delivery.
  • Provide mentorship and technical guidance to junior engineers and technicians, including QA/QC reviews to uphold quality standards.
  • Support business development through proposal writing, scope definition, and cultivating strong client relationships.
  • Stay informed on evolving transportation policies, standards, and emerging technologies impacting traffic operations, safety, and design.

What you’ll bring:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering or a related field.
  • Active Professional Engineer (PE) license in South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, or Florida — or ability to obtain within 6 months.
  • PTOE certification is preferred.
  • Minimum of 10 years of progressive experience in traffic or transportation engineering.
  • Strong knowledge of DOT Design Manuals, MUTCD, AASHTO, and relevant state DOT standards.
  • Proficiency in Synchro, HCS, VISSIM, and MicroStation or AutoCAD; experience with TransModeler is a plus.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work directly with clients and agency staff.
  • Experience in ITS design, traffic signal timing, and system optimization.
  • Familiarity with HSIP safety performance evaluations and predictive analysis tools.
  • Proven ability to manage multiple projects and meet deadlines in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.

Overview:

At Weston & Sampson, you’ll work alongside more than 1,000 employee-owners who are passionate about improving our communities. From providing clean water to designing resilient infrastructure and sustainable environments, our work has a direct impact on quality of life.
