Project Surveyor

$40 - $50 per hour

Spotlock

Overview:

We’re looking for an experienced Project Surveyor who can take a project from raw field data all the way to a polished, final deliverable. This role is ideal for a seasoned surveyor who’s grown from the field into the office, with the ability to manage crews, process drawings, and communicate effectively with a team. You’ll support high-profile public sector work (NJDOT, Port Authority, Transit) and help take pressure off our senior team as we continue to grow.

What You'll Do:

  • Manage and coordinate field crews (with the ability to jump in when needed)
  • Process field data into polished CAD drawings
  • Finalize ROW mosaics and maps — from deeds to deliverables
  • Communicate daily with office and field staff to keep projects moving
  • Review plan sets for accuracy, consistency, and presentation
  • Collaborate on Port Authority and NJDOT work, including post-processing
  • Work closely with junior CAD techs to support labeling and linework cleanup
  • Handle general survey tasks with a hands-on approach

Ideal Background:

  • 10+ years of experience in land surveying
  • Started in the field and moved into the office (field-first mindset)
  • Strong in AutoCAD Civil 3D; experience with Cyclone, TopoDOT, and/or ClearEdge is a plus
  • Comfortable reviewing deeds, creating mosaics, and finalizing ROW
  • Great written and verbal communication skills
  • Self-driven, dependable, and a team player
  • License (PLS) is not required but welcome
  • Familiarity with 3D point clouds and Revit is a plus (can train if needed)

Why Join?

  • Tight-knit team with strong leadership and mentorship
  • Opportunity to grow into a Project Manager or Department Lead
  • Flexible, balanced work culture — 40 hrs/week standard
  • Public-sector focused work with a wide range of projects
  • Flexible commuting: Candidates in the Ocean County area are welcome with occasional travel to Newark

Salary Range: $40/hr to $50/hr

Compensation:
$80,000-$100,000 per year
