  • Manage tasks to meet scope, schedule, and quality expectations
What You Bring:

  • Bachelor’s degree in civil engineering
  • 3+ years of experience designing land‑development projects using Civil 3D
  • EIT or PE registration preferred (or ability to obtain PE within one year)
  • Strong working knowledge of AutoCAD and Civil 3D software
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to prioritize multiple tasks and thrive in a fast‑paced environment
  • A client‑service mindset, strong initiative, and collaborative approach
Why Thomas & Hutton?

  • Competitive salary plus performance bonus
  • Condensed work schedule for better work-life balance
  • Top-tier health, dental, vision, and prescription coverage
  • 401(k), generous PTO, holidays, and tuition assistance
  • Thomas & Hutton University and hands-on Civil 3D mentoring to advance your career

 

Schedule:
On-site: Monday–Thursday 7:30 a.m.–5:30 p.m.; Friday 7:30 a.m.–11:30 a.m.
