  • Perform routine closures, dimension verification, point coding reviews, drafting checks, and other quality-control tasks under the direction of experienced survey staff.
  • Assist with maintaining organized digital and physical survey files.
  • Coordinate underground utility locate requests and assist with preparation of field assignments when needed.
  • Collaborate with in-house engineers, project managers, field personnel, and survey professionals across J-U-B offices.
  • Assist with field work when project needs require, including survey data collection, monument recovery, construction staking support, and field verification.
  • Follow established safety, quality-control, and documentation procedures while developing sound professional judgment and technical independence.

Required Qualifications

  • Previous land surveying, civil drafting, construction, engineering, GIS, or related technical experience is preferred, but not required.
  • High School Diploma or equivalent required; technical training, college coursework, or surveying-related education preferred.
  • Interest in developing skills in records research, survey data processing, construction staking, boundary procedures, and preparation of survey deliverables.

  • Strong attention to detail, willingness to learn, and ability to organize technical information.
