At Verdantas, we’re redefining environmental consulting and sustainable engineering through our use of cutting-edge modeling and digital technology and our genuine commitment to people. Our work spans high-growth sectors like water resources, resilient land use, energy transformation, and civil infrastructure.

Our commitment to excellence, across more than 90 offices, is championed by a team of over 2,000 experts, scientists, engineers, geologists, and technical specialists, embedded in a people-focused culture, prioritizing the well-being of our employees, clients, and the communities we serve.

Join a people-first culture that values your well-being, empowers your growth, and amplifies your impact. At Verdantas, your career goes beyond the expected, and your work helps build a better world.

Ready to shape the future of resilient communities?

Verdantas is seeking an entry-level Transmission Line Engineer to join our Transmission & Structural team within Energy Services, based in one of Verdantas’ key office locations. Working under the direction of senior engineers and group leaders, you will support design and analysis for overhead transmission line projects — PLS-CADD / PLS-POLE / PLS-TOWER modeling, structure loading calculations, and drawing production — while building the technical foundation to grow into independent design and project responsibilities. This is a development-focused role ideal for a recent graduate ready to launch a transmission engineering career.

What You'll Do:

  • Assist with transmission line design and modeling in PLS-CADD, PLS-POLE, and PLS-TOWER under the direction of senior staff
  • Perform structure loading, sag-tension, and clearance calculations with senior review
  • Prepare plan-and-profile drawings, structure lists, and material lists
  • Support field data collection, LiDAR-based modeling, and as-built verification
  • Compile calculation packages and assist in checking project deliverables
  • Coordinate with structural, civil, and geotechnical staff on assigned tasks
  • Participate in Verdantas’ training, mentorship, and professional development programs

What You'll Bring:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Civil, Structural, or Electrical Engineering (or a closely related field)
  • 0–4 years of engineering experience; internship or co-op experience is welcomed
  • Engineer-in-Training (EIT) certification
  • Foundational knowledge of structural analysis and engineering design principles
  • Strong attention to detail, willingness to learn, and clear written and verbal communication
  • Coursework, internship, or co-op experience in power / transmission, structural, or utility engineering is preferred
  • Exposure to PLS-CADD, PLS-POLE, PLS-TOWER, AutoCAD, or MicroStation is preferred
  • Familiarity with the NESC or ASCE (10/74/113) design standards is preferred
  • Interest in pursuing PE licensure and a long-term transmission engineering career

Salary Range:

$67,000.00 - $77,000.00

Benefits:

  • Flexible Work Environment
  • Paid Parental Leave
  • Medical
  • Dental
  • Vision
  • Life and AD&D Insurance
  • Short-Term and Long-Term Disability
  • 401(k) with Company Match
  • Paid Time Off + Holidays
