  • Collaborate directly with clients, contractors, railroads, and regulatory agencies throughout project development and delivery.
  • Assist with business development activities, including proposal preparation, client relationship management, and identifying opportunities for future work.
  • Maintain comprehensive project documentation, including design files, calculations, correspondence, and technical deliverables.

  • Excellent communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills.
  • Proven ability to build and maintain strong client relationships.
  • Professional Engineering (P.E.) license required.
  • Experience with MicroStation, RISA 3D, and Bluebeam Revu.
  • Valid driver’s license and a good driving history.
