Primary responsibilities:

  • Perform detailed engineering tasks such as project design, cost estimates, and design calculations.
  • Prepare project documents and adhere to project scope, schedule, and budget to ensure alignment with project objectives.
  • Independently perform complex assignments that require development of new and improved techniques and procedures.
  • Work closely with project managers on execution of design work, report overall progress, and inform project managers of any potential challenges to ensure project goals and objectives are met.
  • Attend client meetings.
  • May supervise, coordinate, and review work for less experienced staff members.
  • Coordinate with other Olsson technical teams, professional staff, and clients.

Travel may be needed to job sites for observation in all types of terrain and weather conditions, as well as project sites in various stages of construction.

Qualifications

You are passionate about:

  • Working collaboratively with others.
  • Having ownership in the work you do.
  • Using your talents to positively affect communities.

You bring to the team:

  • Strong communication skills.
  • Ability to contribute and work well on a team.
  • Bachelor's degree in engineering.
  • 6 or more years of industry experience.
  • Must be a registered Professional Engineer (PE).
