Professional Land Surveyor (PLS)
This opportunity is for a licensed Professional Land Surveyor who wants more than a routine role—someone who enjoys solving complex boundary challenges, mentoring others, and leveraging modern surveying technology to deliver high-quality results. You'll join a collaborative, employee-focused environment where technical excellence, trust, and long-term career growth are core values.
The Impact You'll Make
In this role, you'll apply professional surveying judgment across a diverse portfolio of projects, translating records, data, and field information into accurate, defensible deliverables. You'll guide survey teams, ensure quality standards are met, and play a visible role in advancing projects that support infrastructure, development, and community growth.
What You'll Do
- Analyze and interpret deeds, plats, title reports, and historical survey records
- Perform complex survey and geomatics calculations to support mapping and platting
- Lead production of boundary surveys, ALTA surveys, existing conditions surveys, subdivision and CIC plats, registered land surveys, right-of-way and routing surveys, and survey exhibits
- Oversee QA/QC to ensure compliance with project requirements and applicable regulations
- Direct and mentor survey field and office staff, supporting professional development
- Coordinate project scope, schedules, and deliverables while communicating clearly with internal and external stakeholders
- Support residential and development services through review of lot certifications, grading as-builts, and foundation as-builts
- Contribute to proposals, estimates, and workload planning as needed
What You Bring
- Licensed Professional Land Surveyor (PLS)
- Bachelor's degree in Land Surveying, GIS, or a related field
- 5+ years of progressive surveying experience
- Strong command of land surveying principles, practices, and regulations
- Proficiency with AutoCAD Civil 3D and common survey data workflows
- Experience with survey data processing and adjustment software
- Working knowledge of modern field equipment and data collection procedures
- Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
- Clear communicator with a collaborative, client-focused mindset
Preferred Experience
- Multi-state licensure or ability to obtain additional licenses
- Familiarity with transportation agency surveying and mapping standards
- Experience with alternative design platforms
- Interest or experience with UAS, LiDAR/HD scanning, and advanced data extraction
Why This Role Stands Out
- Employee-centric culture with long-term career paths
- Strong emphasis on professional development, mentorship, and technical growth
- Exposure to diverse, technically interesting projects
- Flexible work environment and supportive leadership
- Opportunity to influence processes, standards, and team success
